Bieber's fans jammed hotel line
Singer Justin Bieber's fans went crazy when he checked into a hotel here -- more than 2,000 fans pretending to be his friends and relatives called and reportedly jammed the telephone lines of the hotel.
The 18-year-old arrived here Monday and since then fans have been trying to get through to his suite at the Royal Garden Hotel.
"Justin's fans are relentless. They will do anything to get near him. The phones in the hotel haven't stopped ringing since he arrived. Staff knew there would be pandemonium, but not to this extent," thesun.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
