After all the turmoil that’s happened in Japan over the last month and a half, they could probably use the revenue that would be generated by a Justin Bieber concert. However, that’s not likely to happen.

Members of Bieber’s stage crew have refused to go to Japan for two shows that are scheduled for May 17th and 19th in Osaka and Tokyo.

According to sources who spoke with TMZ, crew members were fearful of cancer and other illnesses due to radiation poisoning from the nuclear disaster.

The Biebs’s manager Scooter Braun freaked out at the crew telling them to “Man the f*** up and do right by these kids”.

The crew fired back saying that both Avril Lavigne and Slash had canceled their concerts in Japan, even though the Japanese government has given the ‘all clear’ that the area is safe.

Who’s gonna win this battle of wills? Well, my money is on Scooter. After all, he could just fire their butts and get a new stage crew for the rest of the tour.

What do you guys think, are the crew members being TOO cautious or is Scooter being too naive about the safety issue? Sound off below!
