LONDON (AP) β Eugenie Bouchard hopes fellow Canadian Justin Bieber is noticing her run to the Wimbledon final.
At the Australian Open in January, Bouchard received a good-luck tweet from the pop star after she bashfully admitted in an on-court interview that she’d like to go out on a date with him.
The 20-year-old Bouchard said Thursday after her semifinal win that she realized “he’s kind of been in trouble recently … but, you know, if he cleans up his image.”
In June, Bieber apologized after a 5-year-old video surfaced showing the then-teenager telling a racist joke. It was the latest controversy for Bieber, whose brushes with the law have affected his wholesome image.
