A Justin Bieber look-alike who fooled staff at XS Nightclub in Las Vegas has officially been banned for life.
On Saturday (August 16), the impersonator convinced employees at the Wynn Las Vegas that he was actually the pop star, sources told TMZ. He even hit the stage and performed a few songs before staff caught on to the scam and quickly shut it down—then hit him with a permanent no-entry policy.
“After an elaborate and multi-step ruse by him and his advance team, a Justin Bieber impersonator was granted access to the XS stage. As soon as the error was recognized, he was removed from the resort and denied future entry,” a Wynn and XS Nightclub rep said in a statement to TMZ.
DJ Gryffin, who was also duped into bringing the fake Bieber on stage, later shared a video of the bizarre moment on Instagram.
The impersonator, reportedly named Dylan Desclos, has been promoting himself online as a “Justin Bieber lookalike” across his social media platforms.
Meanwhile, the real Bieber—who recently admitted that “standing on business gets tiring”—hasn’t addressed the nightclub stunt.
Just last month, Bieber was busy hosting a star-studded listening party in Los Angeles for his new Swag album, with guests including his wife Hailey, iShowSpeed, Madison Beer, John Mayer, The Kid Laroi, Eddie Benjamin, Gunna, Lil B, and That’s So Raven star Kyle Massey.
