Mayor Walsh wants everyone to know he’s not a Justin Bieber fan
The Mayor threw some shade at the Canadian pop star during a Twitter Q&A
Mayor Marty Walsh roasted pop star/barefoot Boston Common wanderer Justin Bieber during a Twitter Q&A Wednesday.
When asked by Twitter user Rob Skeller what Walsh considered Boston’s “song of the summer,” the Mayor laid down the hammer.

Walsh’s Q&A provided more entertainment from there, as he indulged invitations from Bostonians to dance…

Walsh’s answers weren’t all jokes, though. He responded to questions about bike infrastructure, public art, and in one instance, whether he would feel comfortable with a transgender person sharing a public restroom with his daughter.
.@PeteSmithRFRD How would you feel if your daughter was transgender? Please be more respectful. #TransBillMA #AskMJW

Wednesday’s Bieber smackdown is not the first time Mayor Walsh has weighed in on a teenage heartthrob during a Q&A. In 2015, Walsh said he was “devastated” by the breakup of boy band One Direction.
.@choll12 We are all devastated about Zayn Malik but we must soldier on #ASKMJW

We’ll have to wait until next Q&A to find out what Walsh thinks about 5 Seconds of Summer.
