Lil Twist Claims He Was Justin Bieber Drug Charge Scapegoat


Rapper Lil Twist is claiming that his friendship with Justin Bieber, 26, in the early 2010s evolved into that of a drug-charge scapegoat, per the whims of Bieber’s management.

Twist, whose real name is Christopher Lynn Moore, made the claims on Philadelphia radio personality Mina SayWhat’s podcast Mina’s House Wednesday.

“If they would have put weed charges on Justin in his early career,” Twist, 27, explains, “It would have been bad on him. So I got a call one day saying, ‘Twist, do you really love this kid?’ I said, ‘Yes.’

“They said, ‘Cool, if you love him then you can take the heat for him because you can come off a little weed charge. You’re associated with Lil Wayne. You’re a rapper.’”

Twist doesn’t offer specifics, but presumably, he’s referring to Bieber’s enfant terrible phase, which included egging a neighbor’s house, the infamous bucket-peeing episode, and a 2014 DUI arrest.

Meanwhile, Twist notched two separate arrests in 2013 while driving Bieber’s cars. Also in 2013, TMZ reported that Twist threw a marijuana-filled party at Bieber’s mansion while the singer was allegedly in Europe.

“It got to a point where I didn’t even have to be there at times and they were putting it, ‘Twist did it, Twist did it, Twist did it,’” Twist added. “It became overwhelming.”

However, a source familiar with the situation tells Page Six says that, while “Justin and Twist don’t have a relationship anymore, Justin wishes Twist well and finds these comments unfortunate and completely untrue.”

Twist released a statement Thursday, reading in part: “While promoting my TV show, the subject of certain events with Bieber were brought up, and in the spirit of being authentic, I felt it a disservice to my fans and the general public to not be completely transparent about my experience. I believe that if you truly support the Black Lives Matter movement, Black people, and black culture, your actions have to reflect that.”

Twist had several scrapes with the law independent of Bieber. He was sentenced to a year behind bars for his 2014 beatdown and robbery of Nickelodeon actor Christopher Moore, and there were reports of a “blowout fight” between Bieber and manager Scooter Braun following allegations of assault by a woman against Twist.
