The love that San Francisco Justin Bieber fans have for the “Sorry” singer is forcing authorities to take legal action.
Following Bieber’s graffiti promotion for his latest album, Purpose, fans have taken in his footsteps to paint the city streets green, blue, red, and plenty other colors.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera says the actions of fans “illegally exploits our city’s walkable neighborhoods and robust tourism.” Someone will pay, and Herrera is looking at Bieber’s label to make those payments.

“This prohibited marketing practice illegally exploits our City’s walkable neighborhoods and robust tourism; intentionally creates visual distractions that pose risks to pedestrians on busy rights of way; and irresponsibly tells our youth that likeminded lawlessness and contempt for public property are condoned and encouraged by its beneficiaries — including Mr. Bieber and the record labels that produce and promote him,” Herrera wrote to Def Jam CEO Steve Bartels and Universal Music General Counsel and EVP Jeffrey Harleston.
Herrera is looking to pursue civil penalties of up to $2,500 per violation, and then some.
