Justin Bieber's California mansion resembles a frat house, according to a detective who searched it last week.
"Why you in my house, bro?" Bieber asked after a dozen deputies woke him up at 8 a.m. on January 14,
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Lt. David Thompson told CNN Friday. He detected "a little sense of entitlement" from the 19-year-old pop star, although he said Bieber was cooperative.
Bieber didn't use foul language,Thompson said, as he allegedly did with police in Miami when he was arrested there early Wednesday.
Deputies had a search warrant to look for evidence connected to an egg assault on a neighboring mansion five days earlier, which caused damage that will cost at least $20,000 to repair, Thompson said.
"The house does operate much like a fraternity house and much of the same stuff that's done there is going to be done across the country," Thompson said. "But the house next door is usually another fraternity house. It's not usually a mansion that can sustain this damage."
Bieber has decorated the living room of his $6.5 million home with ping pong and pool tables, a Ms. PacMan video game and a basketball free-throw machine, Thompson said. The main feature of his back yard is a skateboard ramp covered with spray-painted graffiti.
The exclusive Oaks community in Calabasas is home to the rich and famous, including Michael Jackson's mother and children. Britney Spears previously lived on the same street that Bieber moved to nearly two years ago.
"People move to that neighborhood -- which is a gated community -- for the peace, quiet, and tranquility that it provides," Thompson said. "So, Mr. Bieber's past actions of loud parties, driving too fast, large numbers of people there, egging and what not are way out of character for anyone that lives in that neighborhood."
The sheriff's department's goal is "to try to improve the quality of the neighborhood and make sure people get the help that they need," he said. "In some cases, that help is jail time. In some cases, that help is a wake-up call."
