Justin Bieber was arrested for DUI early Thursday monring and it wasn't pretty

Justin Bieber was arrested for DUI early Thursday monring and it wasn't pretty -- cops say Justin was wasted and resisted arrest and cussed the cop out, dropping multiple F  bombs ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement tells us ... Bieber was busted in Miami Beach and it didn't end with DUI ... he was also busted for resisting arrest without violence, drag racing and driving on an expired license.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... they believe Justin was under the influence of both drugs and alcohol.

According to the police report -- obtained by TMZ -- cops approached Bieber's car and they instantly realized he reeked of alcohol and had bloodshot eyes.  He had a "stupor" look on his face.

The police report says ... Bieber was defiant from the get-go, yelling at the cops, "Why the f**k are you doing this?"  He also yelled, "What the f**k did I do.  Why did you stop me?"

When the officer tried to perform a routine pat down, Bieber said, "I ain't got no f**king weapons, why do you have to search me?  What the f**k is this about?"  Bieber claimed he wasn't drunk and coming back from recording music.  That's not true, because we knew he was at a club.

Now the basis for the resisting arrest charge -- Before the pat down, as Bieber got out of the car, he "kept going into his pants pocket."  The cop ordered him to put his hands on the vehicle, and Bieber initially complied but soon took his hands off the car, turned and then cussed out the cop.
The cop then grabbed Justin by the right arm, Justin pulled his arm away, and said, "What the f**k are you doing?"

The report says Justin was driving between 55 and 60 MPH in a 30 MPH residential area.

Bieber is now in custody and is at the police department where he is being tested -- presumably to more precisely measure his blood alcohol level.  Our law enforcement sources say Justin was given a field sobriety test at the scene ... and failed.

His next stop will be jail, where he will be booked and processed and bail will be set.


We're told Bieber had just left SET nightclub and was driving a yellow Lamborghini at the time cops spotted him in a residential neighborhood.   Our sources say Justin's people actually blocked the street off so Bieber could drag race.



Sources say the person Justin was racing was also arrested.  We're told that driver was Khalil, a well-known rapper on Def Jam Records.  He was in a red Ferrari.



Justin had a passenger in the car -- a model.

The traffic stop was for drag racing and cops determined he was driving under the influence.

The photo (below) is Chantel -- the model who was in Justin's yellow Lambo -- and Justin.  The pic was NOT taken at the time of the arrest.

No, Netflix Isn't Actually Killing HBO And Showtime, Networks Say

A market research firm is backing down from its widely circulated report claiming that HBO and other premium TV providers lost subscribers over the last two years while Netflix gained.
NPD Group removed the press release from its website and issued a "data clarification" statement on Wednesday that said it "should not have called out declines in subscribers for specific premium TV channels, HBO and Showtime."
"The data used for the press release pertains to aggregate results for all premium TV channels and does indicate that the overall number of subscribers has declined, based on a representative sample of the U.S. population," NPD said in a statement to The Huffington Post. "However, upon further examination of the results, there is data supporting the conclusion that individual subscribers are either subscribing to more channels, or adding channels over time."
Basically, NPD group says that fewer households are subscribing overall, but those households that are subscribing are subscribing to more premium channels.
"The universe of overall premium channel subscribers is shrinking, but the subscribers that are sticking with premium TV are taking on more channels," Russ Crupnick, senior vice president of industry analysis at NPD Group, told The Huffington Post. "You do have a lot of consumers who are staying in premium TV and bulking up on the number of channels they're subscribing to."
An NPD Group spokesman said that the company would issue a corrected press release this week.
HBO and other premium TV providers aggressively disputed the original NPD report after it came out on Monday.

"The research is simply incorrect," HBO said in a statement to The Huffington Post.
Rich Greenfield, a prominent media analyst (who, coincidentally, co-hosted Netflix's earnings call with investors on Wednesday), jumped in on Tuesday evening to discredit the report. In a blog post, Greenfield called the claim "100 percent false."
"We believe premium growth has been quite healthy, with absolute premium subscribers now at an all-time high driven by improving quality of content," Greenfield wrote.
NPD Group's original report was picked up by many news outlets, including The Huffington Post.
NPD surveyed four waves of more than 7,000 consumers -- in March and August 2012, and during the same two months in 2013 -- and reported that over the last two years, the overall percentage of households that subscribe to premium TV channels declined by 6 percentage points. At the same time, the percentage of households that subscribe to streaming services like Netflix, Hulu Plus and Amazon Prime Instant Video, increased by 4 percentage points.
NPD also said the number of subscriptions has decreased, writing that "subscriptions to HBO, Showtime and other premium TV channels have declined over the past two years, as Netflix and other subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services have gained in popularity."
Yet HBO said that both HBO and Cinemax "have shown significant domestic subscriber growth in the past two years."
HBO and Cinemax added a total of 1.9 million combined domestic subscribers in 2012, Jeffrey L. Bewkes, the CEO of Time Warner, HBO's parent company, said in an earnings call last year. This number includes so-called churn -- people who've cancelled their subscriptions.
Showtime, for its part, said in a statement to HuffPost that NPD's study "does not accurately reflect actual subscriber counts." The company cited figures from SNL Kagan, the media research firm, that said Showtime grew by 1.5 million subscribers from March 2012 to September 2013.
Starz grew from 20.1 million subscribers in March 2012 to 22 million in September 2013, while its sister channel Encore grew from 33.6 million to 35 million over the same period.
Data from SNL Kagan backs up the networks' claims. HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz and EPIX all have increased their total subscriber counts in the last two years, according to SNL Kagan. And the percentage of households in the U.S. with premium TV subscriptions actually increased from the first quarter of 2012 to the third quarter of last year, according to SNL Kagan.
Netflix is also thriving. Subscriptions have surged over the last couple of years, jumping to more than 31.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 from 22.02 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Analysts said the reason people keep shelling out big bucks for premium TV is simple: There's really good stuff to watch.
"Content is king. Period. End of report," said Jim Nail, principal analyst at Forrester, the information and technology research firm. "Most of Netflix is still old movies [and] past seasons of TV shows, and while that has a certain degree of quality, it's certainly not a full substitute for the latest episode of 'Boardwalk Empire' or 'Game of Thrones.'"
