You too can enjoy a flight into space, if you have a spare $250,000 lying around.

I think the oddest part of the story is that, in a year for Bieber that's seen monkey seizures, rabid fan tacklings, paparazzo fights and hats that are just the worst, Bieber going into space doesn't seem all that strange.

What do you of the news that Justin Bieber and his manager Scooter Braun will be going to space?
