Bieber’s mom Playboy rumor is false. Pattie Lynn Mallette, Justin Bieber’s beautiful mom, reportedly received an offer from Playboy to pose nude. As it turns out, the mom has not received an offer so Justin Bieber can breathe a sigh of relief.

As always, this rumor was created by several blogs as a way to get people to visit their sites. It’s a shame, because this kind of distraction usually hurts people, or creates pointless hype over nothing. This is why it’s always a good idea to confirm with trusted and legitimate sources before publishing such material.

That’s what we did, and according to our sources, it’s a rumor. Later in the day, we also learned that Justin Bieber’s rep called the rumor “absolutely false.” Don’t always believe everything you read on tabloid blogs or news sites that want your clicks.

Justin Bieber has not commented on the rumors. However, he must be accustomed to them with so much trash filling the Web each day. This month we learned he was dead, and then we learned he was pregnant, and it’s all reported by Internet spoofs.
