RUN, BIEBER! RUN!

Justin Bieber shows off his impressive abs as he goes for a topless jog in Los Angeles

Why wear clothes when you can run shirtless eh, Justin?

JUSTIN Bieber stripped off and showed off his impressive abs during a run in Los Angeles.

The singer worked up a sweat as he ran up and down the hills in the sunshine.

Justin, 22, has been wearing a t-shirt but appeared to get too hot, so held it in his hand as he ran along.

He wore patterned Nike running leggings underneath a pair of camouflage board shorts.

The Baby star is a regular runner and is often seen sprinting up and down the canyons.

Last year he stopped for a chat with another hiker, Mike Maedke, who said Justin was happy to talk, chatting for 20 minutes about the trappings of fame.

Mike said Justin missed his homeland of Canada before looking down at LA and telling him: “It’s chaotic down there.”

The pair were later disturbed by two of Justin’s teenage fans and, after a quick selfie, Justin ran off again.

He may have gone up the canyons for some head space, after being criticised yesterday for wearing an oversized fur coat.

Lisa Lange, Senior Vice President of Communications, PETA US, told The Sun Online: “This caveman couture look is a new low for Justin Bieber.”

Describing the process in which animals are killed for coats, she continued: “Coyotes and other animals trapped for ridiculous coats like this one panic and gnaw at their limbs until a trapper arrives to shoot or beat them to death, often orphaning their helpless babies.”

She added: “It’s always astounding to see someone with such great fortune and fame show no mercy for animals who simply want to be left alone to live with their families.”

Justin recently finished his world tour with  several gigs in Europe and it appears he was still being influenced by the winter weather as he wore a large fur coat for dinner last night – despite being in LA.

The Canadian singer bundled up in the coat and when asked if it was real fur – he shouted ‘Hell yeah’.

It’s not the first time Justin has come under fire from an animal charity.

Back  in July he received a letter from the Toronto Animal Service, who said they had received complaints over him posing with a white lion club backstage at a gig in the Canadian city in May.

The TAS warned the Sorry hitmaker it is illegal to have exotic cats within city limits and issued a stern warning for future visits, advising taking pictures of the animals could get them seized.

And animal rights organisation PETA have slammed the Bowmanville Zoo, who reportedly provided the big cats.

They said: “No reputable animal-care facility lends out exotic animals for private parties and Instagram photos.”

Justin previously ran into trouble with authorities in 2013 when his pet monkey was confiscated by customs officers.

The singer refused to listen to all his advisors who told him not to take OG Mally - an unexpected birthday gift - with him to Germany, only for the creature to be seized and placed under quarantine shortly after he arrived in Munich.

But Justin later insisted he had done nothing wrong as he had the right documentation for his unusual pet.

He said: “Honestly, everyone told me not to bring the monkey. Everybody.

“Everyone told me not to bring the monkey. I was like, 'It's gonna be fine, guys!' It was the farthest thing from fine.”

In Germany, that monkey's endangered or something ... but I had the papers.

“I even had it written out that he was a circus monkey and he could travel and all that s**t. I had all the right papers. Things get twisted.”

Justin was given until May 7 2013 to produce the proper paperwork for the capuchin monkey, but after he failed to respond, German officials demanded $8,000 to cover the cost of relocating OG Mally to a zoo, and the creature now lives at the Serengeti Park in Copenhagen.
