Los Angeles, June 26 : A representative of singer Justin Bieber has shot down the rumours that his mother Pattie Mallette was offered $50,000 to pose topless for men's magazine Playboy.

"While nature's beauty in any form is worthy of appreciation, Justin's mom Patricia is a born again Christian. There is no truth that she would ever pose in Playboy, as it goes against her religion," said Ravi Batra, a legal representative of Justin.

It was recently rumoured that Mallette could receive $50,000 if she was willing to pose for a spread in an upcoming issue of the magazine.(IANS)
