Justin Bieber has been sued by his former neighbour whose house was egged by the singer and his pals claiming that he and his wife have suffered emotional distress because the singer's bodyguard called him "little Jew boy".

Jeff Schwartz has claimed that the 21-year-old singer and his crew terrorized their Calabasas neighborhood with loud parties, drag races and disgusting encounters which included the singer spitting on him, TMZ.com reported.

Schwartz also claimed that on Memorial Day weekend of 2013, the 'Baby' hitmaker was speeding around the neighborhood in his Ferrari and when he was asked to stop then one of Bieber's bodyguards came out called him a "little Jew boy".

Schwartz claims in the lawsuit that the epithet was hurled months before his house was egged in January, 2014.

Bieber ended up pleading no contest to vandalism and went on probation and he also shelled out 80K dollars for the repairs.
