Apparently Justin Bieber is Walking Around Boston Barefoot, Feeding Squirrels

Boston, MA - Pop singer and professional heartthrob Justin Bieber has been spotted around Boston ahead of his two-night concert series at TD Garden -- apparently, shoe-less.

The Globe shared a photo of the young celebrity barefoot in the park Monday, accompanied with a headline that asked the obvious question: "Why is Justin Bieber walking around Boston barefoot?" The paper was pinging off a series of social media posts that captured the celebrity walking around town.

He was also, apparently, feeding the local wildlife.

Meanwhile, Bieber was snapping a few photos of his own. Here's this gorgeous shot, which looks a whole lot like the Public Garden in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood, shared on Instagram late Monday:
