“Mark My Words.” Justin Bieber will cheer for any sports team he wants to.

After a recent photo of him wearing a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey drew controversy, which team Bieber cheers for came into question.

“What Do You Mean?”

Some fans were appalled that Bieber, a noted-Toronto Maple Leafs fan, would wear the jersey of another team. On Monday, the pop-superstar took to Twitter to clarify where his sports fandom truly lies.

Bieber added that he just loves to watch sports and doesn’t care who’s playing. According to him, being a sports fan is about cheering for anyone and everyone.

To sum it up, Bieber says that no matter who you cheer for, if you just learn to “Love Yourself” “Life is Worth Living.”

“Get Used to It.”
