(CBS Local) Justin Bieber has found himself in the middle of a cruel hoax. On Thursday, someone posted a Tweet from the official Entertainment Tonight Twitter account that the pop star had been diagnosed with cancer. The tweet has since been removed.Then, someone posing as the Biebs tweeted "Some of my AWESOME supporters are shaving their heads to help get me through this. I love my fans. #BaldForBieber."
Then fans began Tweeting pictures of themselves after shaving their heads holding up signs saying #BaldForBeiber, which is a lovely gesture, but unfortunately appears to be a hoax. more on this story
