Was Justin Bieber's New Video Worth That Prank? Take a Look

Turns out Justin's "Beauty and a Beat" video is pretty good, prank or no prank

Justin Bieber has worried a lot of people with this "stolen laptop" prank—Beliebers, the people of Tacoma, the Live From E! panel—and all for his new "Beauty and a Beat" video. So is this video even any good?

Well...yes!

Seriously, the whole time we were watching, we kept finding ourselves actually having a good time. It's hard not to when you stick a bunch of energetic dancers, synchronized swimmers and Bieber in a water park and tell them to have the best grad night party ever. Just look at the joy on Biebs' face.

If that doesn't make you want to hop on a party bus to Raging Waters, you just don't know what fun is. And! No one even threw up. Always good news at a water park party.

Also, seeing Bieber try to body rock Nicki Minaj was just precious.

He may carry himself in a "more manly way," but he's not that manly, yet.

Yes, the prank was annoying and juvenile, but would you even want to watch the video if the headline had been "Watch Justin Bieber Frolic in a Water Park"? Probably not. So well played (we guess, kinda), Team Bieber. And thanks for the good times. (Or if you want something with a bit more substance, Pink's got you covered.)

Update: Bieber's rep said that a laptop did indeed go missing and E! News confirmed that a report was filed with Tacoma police on Thursday.

Or maybe you want to see Bieber get roughed up for pulling this prank?
