A Justin Bieber impersonator who managed to sneak onstage at the XS Nightclub has been handed a permanent ban.
On Saturday (August 16), the impersonator tricked the staff at the Wynn Las Vegas into believing he was the real deal, sources with direct knowledge on the situation told TMZ.
He even took the stage at the club to perform a few songs until Wynn staff eventually realized the scam and shut it down — a move they followed up with a lifetime no-admittance policy for the hoaxer.
"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,” said a rep from Wynn and the XS Nightclub in a statement shared with TMZ.
DJ Gryffin, who was fooled by the imposter and brought up the fake Bieber to the stage, documented the incident in a video shared to his Instagram.
The impersonator, seemingly named Dylan Desclos, has uploaded content across his social media channels billing himself as a "Justin Bieber lookalike."
The actual Bieber, who recently stated that “standing on business gets tiring,” has yet to respond to the incident.
Last month, the singer hosted a listening party for his new Swag album In Los Angeles with a guest list that included his wife Hailey, as well as That's So Raven actor Kyle Massey, iShowSpeed, Madison Beer, John Mayer, The Kid Laroi, Eddie Benjamin, Gunna and Lil B.
