Justin Bieber Viral Burrito Photo Was a Fake

Last week, a photo of a person who strongly resembled Justin Bieber eating a burrito as if he was eating a corn on the cob went viral, and the Internet freaked out over the unconventional way this person was chowing down.

Well, that photo was a total fake and the person eating the burrito was not Justin.

A group called “Yes Theory,” who are notorious pranksters, set up the viral event and made sure it looked extremely convincing!

The group hired a man named Brad Sousa to portray Bieber, and the likeness is astounding!

Even Justin‘s manager Scooter Braun got in on the fun and, though he figured out the photo was fake very quickly, he told the guys he would play along. Check it out on Instagram.
