Teen pop star Justin Bieber has launched a publicity campaign to push his “good boy” image following allegations the 18-year-old is smoking marijuana

Gossip website TMZ released photos of Justin smoking what appeared to be a marijuana joint in a California hotel room earlier this month, shocking many of his fans. Justin, who was also recently accused of cheating on his girlfriend Selena Gomez, has tweeted “trying to be better” over the past few days – and yesterday took part in a photo opportunity with a sick child.

Before the start of his show in Utah earlier this month, Justin paid a visit to 7-year-old leukemia patient Millie Flamm, who was too unwell to attend his concert. After serenading her, Justin gave Millie a kiss on the cheek. She then said to her mother, “You are never going to wash my face again,” Amanda Flamm told the Deseret News.

Justin’s drug charges come at an unfortunate time for the star. The Canadian pop idol was recently embroiled in a drama over the death of a paparazzo, who was run over by a passing vehicle while trying to take Justin’s photograph.
