The U.S. government says it’s doing everything it can to get Brittney Griner home … but now there’s a Justin from Canada looking to help out, too — and it ain’t Trudeau.
Justin Bieber is reacting to Griner’s 9-year sentence for bringing cannabis oil into Russia … saying it “hurts” to hear the news, but he doesn’t want to sit around and do nothing.
“If anyone knows of anyway (sic) I can help please let me know.”
Bieber is just one of many notable figures furious over the sentencing — Kyrie Irving called on President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to provide more info about Griner’s status.
“What is truly happening with our Queen @brittneygriner @POTUS @VP?” the Brooklyn Nets superstar tweeted. “Please give us an Update.”
WNBA star Lexie Brown added … “Anyone that goes back to Russia to play is insane.”
“Praying for BG man…this is breaking my heart seeing her right now 😔😔😔.”
Ex-NFL star Robert Griffin III‘s reaction was simple — “BRING BRITTNEY GRINER HOME!!!”
The NBA and WNBA released a joint statement … saying Griner’s verdict and sentencing was “unjustified and unfortunate,” but reaffirmed the organizations will stop at nothing to make sure she comes home.
As we previously reported, the U.S. has made Russia a “very good offer” to bring her back to the States.
No clue how Bieber can personally help … but it’s worth a shot??
