Earlier this week, actor Drake Bell claimed a hacker used his Twitter account to send out a series of tweets knocking pop singer Katy Perry. He explained that while he would never slam Perry, teen pop idol Justin Bieber was fair game.

Fast forward a few days, and here’s what appeared on Bell’s Twitter feed this morning.

When hordes of Beliebers took offense, Bell played the “hacked” card again.

Also a hacker? Hmm?
These tweets were retweeted from Bell’s account shortly after he cried hacker:

@DrakeBell if there was a choice between meeting you or bieber… I would probably pick you. You can actually act and sing.

Most Bieber fans find Bell’s hacking defense about as believable as Anthony Weiner’s.

True, what man doesn’t pine for “relativity”?

Drake Bell now claims that he got hacked again. It's cute that he got owned by girls and is now pulling the 'hacked' card again.

"knock knock" "who's there?" "Drake Bell." "Drake Bell, who?" "EXACTLY." You mess with Juju? then you're messing with 24M beliebers.

Sheesh, guys. Take up yoga or something.
But some Justin Bieber fans accepted the hacking explanation. They just can’t fathom that anyone would intentionally commit the career-ruining mistake of bashing The Biebs.
