A spokesperson for Justin Bieber has denied rumours that the singer fondled a teenage fan's breast.

The fan, named Jocelyn, posted a picture of herself and Bieber that she had taken at a meet and greet session with the singer, but found her Twitter flooded with messages from people asking about the slightly suspicious position of Bieber's hand.

She wrote: "HAHAHAHHAHA IT LOOKS LIKE JUSTIN'S TOUCHING MY BOOB IN THE PICTURE AHAHAHAHHA I CANT", but denied that the singer had fondled her intentionally, adding in another message: "Let me clear this up for people who can't read, NO I did NOT ask Justin to touch my boobs."

Now, a spokesperson for Bieber has told EOnline that the discussion surrounding the incident is laughable, stating: "It's ridiculous. That definitely did not happen."

The controversy surrounding the picture is making Bieber's week even more difficult, after it was recently reported that he was being investigated for an alleged assault involving a Nerf gun. In slightly more positive news, however, it is reported that a $9 million (£5.8 million) lawsuit against the pop brat for allegedly damaging a woman's hearing has been dropped.
