Justin Bieber's Twitter page has become the target of an internet joke.

A public vote on the Canadian singer's My World Tour page asked users which country he should tour next, with no restrictions on the nations that could be voted on.

This spurred users of imageboard website 4Chan to nominate North Korea, with the vote now turning viral.

There are now almost half a million votes to send Bieber to the secretive communist nation.

The contest, which ends at 1800 on 7 July, saw North Korea move from 24th to 1st place in less than two days, several thousand votes ahead of Israel.

Given the fact that almost all citizens of North Korea are denied internet access and there are restrictive controls over all media, it is unlikely that any of the votes have actually come from within the country.

A spokesman for the North Korean Embassy in London told BBC News that any application for 16-year-old Bieber to tour would be dealt with by its mission to the United Nations, although the matter would be referred to Pyongyang.

    Best part of the article is - "It is not known if Kim Jong-il is a fan of Justin Bieber's music "

    4chan is doing similar to the Jonas Brothers, attempting to spell out shit in their top 4 votes. Somalia, Hungaria, Israel and Thailand I believe.

    Alot of different ones. Some videos would redirect to goat porn (4chan is sick) and other would play a video saying Justin Bieber died.

    If he went, he'd probably be very safe and the crowds would "adore" him.

    And North Korea would use it to rub it in the faces of the international community. Kim Jong Ill may even get get photos with him to show what an "open" nation they are to diplomacy and foreign representatives.

    Or North Korea would reject the idea and the trolls would laugh again. Or Bieber's management would reject the idea and give a lame excuse (like when MTV wouldn't give Rick Astley an award despite the huge online votes for him a few years ago).
