Justin Bieber made headlines all over the world earlier this week when he tweeted about a robbery that had gone on.

Justin said his laptop and camera had been stolen. Some 'personal footage' started leaking on the internet, like scenes of Justin at a pool party. Justin was even tweeting an account @gexwy, who was threatening to release even more footage…and promised a big announcement today at noon.

Well, the video released was Justin's new music video! It's for his song "Beauty and a Beat", which features Nicki Minaj.

It turned out Justin had been pretending the whole time. The 'robber' never existed! Justin and the 'thief' tweeted the video link at the same time.

Justin loves to play pranks, and he pulled this one off perfectly! What a creative way to release a new music video. Check it out below:

Thanks to Wambie girls Angel and Aya Aly for sending this in!
