This Sunday, the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards are set to take place and the seating plan has been released. As seen in the photo above, Justin will be sitting with girlfriend Selena Gomez, as expected. However, no Pattie Mallette (his mom). At past awards shows, Justin has always been seen sitting with his mom, or with his mom and Selena. However, a few weeks back at the 2011 TCA's, Justin sat next to Selena while his mom sat on the other side of the venue next to Justin's ex-girlfriend, Caitlin Beadles.
Some people have an issue with Justin "choosing" Selena over his mom. They feel like all of a sudden Selena has stepped into the picture and has in a way, pushed Pattie aside. I tend to disagree. Justin is 17 years old and he is the most popular male entertainer on the entire planet. It isn't exactly "swag" to be seen on the red-carpet with and sitting at an awards show next to your mom. Instead, he is seen with hot, sexy girlfriend Selena Gomez. When your trying to keep your image up and get everyone wanting to take your picture, you sit next to your sexy girlfriend, not you mom. That is just the way it is.
Now, is it right for Selena to "replace" Pattie? Absolutely not. However, I do not believe that Selena is trying to push Pattie aside at all. Justin is growing up, just like any teenager, and wants to hang out with his hot girlfriend instead of his mom. JB has always been a family man so don't even try to say that he is betraying his family.
So next time, before you start tweeting pissed off tweets angry at Justin for sitting next to his girlfriend at an awards show, ask yourself this: "If I were a 17-year-old teenage boy, would I want to get my picture taken with my mom, or my hot girlfriend"
