Entertainment Weekly is reporting that according to celebrity blogger Zack Taylor executives with men's magazine Playboy approached Justin Bieber's mother Pattie Mallette earlier this week with a $50,000 offer to take
A representative for Justin Bieber and his mother was quick to release a statement saying the rumor's of the offer were just that, rumor's. The statement read, "These stories are absolutely false."
While Playboy declined to comment on the story about the offer, they did hint that the story was true when contacted by Zack Taylor for a comment on the story. Playboy, which was founded by Hugh Hefner, is famous for trying to get the biggest names and likely draws into photo shoots for the magazine. Most recently singer Lady Gaga was approached with an offer from Playboy to do a shoot for $500,000, which she declined also.
Sources with Playboy said the executives were eager to get Pattie Mallette to agree to take her clothes off for a spread in the magazine because her son Justin Bieber is the hottest singing sensation right now and thought it would draw a huge crowd of readers.
While the representative for Justin and his mother declined the rumor was true, Team Bieber legal representative Ravi Batra said in a statement to Radar Online, "While natures beauty in any form is worthy of appreciation, Justin's mom Patricia is a born again Christian. There is no truth that she would ever pose in Playboy, as it goes against her religion."
Justin Bieber and his mother Pattie Mallette are both staying mum at the moment on the Playboy rumors.
Pattie Mallette is one of the influences behind Justin Bieber's career when she posted video's of the teen sensation on Youtube leading to a recording contract and world wide success as a teen idol.
