Bieber defends wearing Penguins jersey in Twitter rant

Justin Bieber defended his apparent bandwagon fandom in a Twitter rant Monday.

The Canadian pop star caught flak for posting an Instagram photo of himself in a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey prior to Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final after cheering on the Toronto Maple Leafs earlier in the playoffs. But as Bieber explained, he considers himself more of a casual sports fan, and will rock any team's jersey "that looks cool."

I support all sports I'll put ANY jersey from ANY pro team if I'm whack for wearing jerseys they give me out of love then I'm Whack
