Glassboro teen has back-up plan in case Justin Bieber skips prom

    Pop star Justin Bieber hasn’t said whether he’ll attend the Glassboro High School prom with Leon Purvis. But Purvis has a back-up plan in case the Biebs doesn’t show.

    “Let’s just say I am doing something to top off me asking Justin Bieber to prom as a ‘bro’ and the year’s prom invitation itself,” Purvis told the Gloucester County Times.
    He began his campaign to get Bieber’s attention last year, but so far, Bieber’s been silent.

    Purvis has a date and will reveal his big plan B at the prom on June 2 if Bieber is a no-show.
