Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer is a Belieber. He met the pop sensation at J&R Music World across from City Hall Park to proclaim today "Justin Bieber J&R Appreciation day in the borough of Manhattan." Bieber is in town after a concert he had last night at the Apollo Theater. Outside the store, hundreds of screaming teenage girls waited inside police barricades for the opportunity to get their copies of Bieber's album autographed. The so-called "hipster cop" Rick Lee was outside patrolling the barricades. Stringer, asked what it was like to meet Bieber, said "it was very cool." He doesn't own any of Bieber's records, but he is a Bieber fan, he said. "I don't give proclamations to people I don't belieb in."
