"Munich was a good time. And loud. The bus is headed to Vienna now. U coming?" Bieber tweeted after the show, although he didn't mention the monkey. Before leaving the U.S. on Wednesday, he had a brief, one-hour reunion with ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez at her L.A. home. Earlier in the week, Bieber spoke with Us Weekly exclusively about the recent spate of negative press attention he's received.
