The 9 Ugliest Pants Justin Bieber Wore in 2012

March 12, 2012
JBiebs visited his then-GF Selena Gomez on the set of Spring Breakers in a pair of camo cargos. At least the baggy bottoms are a somewhat accepted mainstream style—by frat daddies and deer hunters, that is.

Later that night, after reportedly having too much to drink—even though, uh, they both were and still are underage—the couple got into a fight, causing paparazzi to further bombard the teen lovebirds.

Hm... We wonder what the blowout could possibly have been about? (Hint: It rhymes with shmugly shmants.)

From a glance, Justin's pants at the 2012 Tribeca Film Festival really didn't look all that bad. But upon further inspection, you'll see there's a teddy bear charm dangling right in front of his, uh, you-know-what.

Not even a denim vest and a gold chain can make black waxed denim look cool—sorry, bro.

One of the unfortunate (and horrific!) side-effects of the Biebs' drop-crotch pants? Lots of crotch-grabbing.

And while we're on the topic of crotch-grabbing...

As if these articulated red leather pants didn't make the world queasy enough, Justin caused millions of viewers to feel thoroughly uncomfortable with his inappropriate, shall we call them, "hand gestures" during the 40th Annual American Music Awards.

Who can forget the infamous half-buttoned overalls and plain white tee Justin Bieber wore to receive an honorary medal from the Prime Minister of Canada?

The singer later made light of the matter on Instagram by posting a photo of the fashion faux pas, along with the caption, "I hope you hate my style."

This, friends, can only be taken as a sign that Bieber has officially hit rock bottom.

We hate to say it, but this baby, baby, baby looks like he's wearing a man diaper—and one that's not, uh, clean at that.

Money pants, drop-crotch skinnies, denim overalls-2012 has been a year of really unfortunate pants for Justin Bieber.

While we truly have no explanation for the sartorial selections of this teen heartthrob, we do have this secret theory that the more down-in-the-dumps the Biebs gets over his struggling relationship with Selena, the baggier-and crotchier-his pants become.

Just to prove it to you, we've chronicled his baffling bottoms to date, starting way back at the beginning of 2012-when the Biebs was just your typical 17-year-old lad with "normal" teen saggy-pants problems.

Now, call it the new strand of Bieber Fever or whatever you will, but these ill-fitting styles are so horrid, so repugnant, they might just make you vom. Proceed with caution-you've been warned.
