Justin Bieber sent fans into a frenzy on Friday (29Apr11) by posting what appeared to be his phone number online and urging them to call - but it later emerged he was playing a birthday prank on one of his friends.


The teenage pop star celebrated his pal Wilson Warren's birthday with a practical joke, posting his friend's cell phone number on his Twitter.com page.

Bieber, who is currently on tour in Australia, pretended the number was his own and urged fans to pick up the phone, writing, "Call me... I wanna talk to my fans."

The move prompted a flurry of calls to his pal's phone as part of the star's elaborate prank. Bieber later removed the number and sent a birthday message to Warren, who responded, "O you little tool... Oooooooo if you weren't in Aus (sic)", before adding, "Love my lil bro (sic) Justin Bieber but all is fair in love and war. Still friends. For now. Hahahaha."
