Bieber to promote prepaid debit card

Holy mother of gawd, this sounds like a very bad idea...

Quote
If Justin Bieber endorses a product, will teens buy it or convince their parents to get it for them? BillMyParents, a financial services company focused on teens, is banking on it. They’ve signed a deal with the pop star to endorse a new prepaid debit card to his legions of loyal fans.

With 50 million Facebook fans and more than 32 million followers on Twitter, Bieber has enormous marketing power. As a “brand ambassador” for the SpendSmart card, the 18-year old performer will promote the card via social media and develop a series of videos that will promote responsible spending.

Then go to the rest of the article that balances out ideas of why is might work, but probably is not a good idea for parents and kids
Believe in Yourself
Because the rest of us think you're an idiot.
