Justin Bieber involved in new racism scandal

Controversy continues to follow Justin Bieber today, as The Sun has obtained a video of the Canadian singer joking about becoming a member of US white supremacy group the Ku Klux Klan.
Filmed earlier in his career, it also features Bieber changing the words of his 'One Less Lonely Girl' track – penned by Usher – to ones that make light of the murder of a black person.
It comes just days after another clip emerged of a 15-year-old Bieber telling a joke that involved heavy use of the word "n*gger" in its punchline. He has since apologised for the first video on Twitter, saying that "as a kid, I didn't understand the power of certain words and how they can hurt."
Here is his full statement:

In April, Bieber was forced to apologise after posting a photograph online of himself standing at the Japanese war shrine of Yasukuni, which honours leaders executed for war crimes.
