Los Angeles, Feb 13 (IANS): Actress-comedienne Rebel Wilson has made a bizarre statement about singer Justin Bieber saying that she was holding his privates while taking a photograph with him at the opening night of singer-actress Jennifer Lopez's “All I Have” show in Las Vegas.

During an appearance on "The Graham Norton Show", Wilson recounted a series of events which led to her behaviour. The idea popped up when she and Kelly Osbourne, who sat next to her, realised that the 22-year-old singer was sitting two rows behind them during Lopez's show, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I still haven't found love, so I try to get out there. And then we noticed Justin Bieber sitting two rows behind us, and we thought... Valentine's Day is coming up, we're both single. Let's just make a play for him," Wilson said. 

When a selfie was displayed on the screen, Norton asked Wilson why Bieber looked nervous in the photo. 

Wilson answered: "No, that was just because I was holding his b***s."
