After an alleged un-retouched photo of Justin Bieber’s Calvin Klein underwear ad surfaced online this week, Bieber’s legal team has taken legal action to save his brawny reputation.
Website BreatheHeavy.com received a cease and desist letter from the singer’s lawyers after the gossip blog posted a reportedly doctored image of the Canadian. “Team Bieber sent BreatheHeavy a cease and desist letter because of the alleged un-retouched Calvin Klein photo we posted,” the website read. “[It’s asking] we remove the picture in question as well as provide a retraction.”
And as if legal action wasn’t enough, Bieber’s trainer, Patrick Nilsson, is weighing in on the Photoshop debacle. “I can definitely confirm that he is a well-endowed guy,” he said of Bieber’s package. “I sound weird saying that, but yes.”
Reps at Calvin Klein have also come out to support their new billboard star, praising the 20-year-old for his professionalism, but avoiding any reference to the un-retouched image. “Justin showed up early every day with amazing energy; he completely trusted us and gave it his all… He came alive when it was time to perform, especially when the drum kit came out — it was really impressive,” Calvin Klein shared.
