青年流行歌星贾斯丁·比伯由于多项指控被捕入狱，并于周四出狱，这些指控包括：据悉，他在佛罗里达的迈阿密海滩由于酒驾超速行驶。本台记者迈克·里奇门为我们报道比伯陷入的最新的一系列麻烦事件。

Wearing a red jumpsuit, 19-year-old Justin Bieber appeared in a Miami courtroom on Thursday via videolink from jail.

Bieber had been arrested earlier in the day after police caught him drag racing¹ on a residential² street in Miami Beach.

Police said he cursed at officers at the time of his arrest, and that he later admitted to drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana and taking prescription³ drugs.

A judge set bond at $2,500 and listed charges of driving under the influence, resisting arrest, and driving with an expired driver’s license⁴.

Bieber's friend, fellow singer Khalil Amir Sharieff -- commonly known as Khalil -- was also arrested on drunk driving charges Thursday. His bail⁵ was set at $1,000.

Police said Khalil, driving a red Ferrari, and Bieber, driving a yellow Lamborghini, were drag racing on a street in Miami Beach.

Amateur video captured the moment the police stepped in.

“Justin got pulled over. Oh my God,” said one onlooker⁶.

Bieber has become an international star in the few years of his career. As of 2012, the Canadian singer, pop musician and actor had sold 15 million records worldwide.

His behavior, however, has become increasingly erratic⁷. Last year, he was late for a London concert and had to take a break from the show to receive what his representative called "oxygen and treatment backstage."

Authorities recently raided his California home after he was accused of pelting⁸ a neighbor's house with eggs. He has also been accused of reckless driving in his neighborhood.

Jennifer Peros, a reporter for the entertainment magazine Us Weekly, said Thursday's arrest would come as a surprise to many.

"I think a lot of people today are really shocked this is Justin Bieber's first arrest, just because for the past year, year and a half, we've been hearing about him getting in trouble, so obviously just assume that he's been arrested before. But I really do think that this might be the nail in the coffin⁹, so to say, that he really is going to kind of have a rude awakening¹⁰ this time around and realize that his brand, his career, all of his fans, will be affected¹¹ by this arrest,” said Peros.

Bieber emerged from jail Thursday escorted by correctional officers and his entourage, before climbing onto the roof of a car to wave to fans.  He did not comment publicly on his arrest.
