Last August, Bieber broke Make-A-Wish Foundation's record by granting the charity's 200th wish. Pattie Mallette, Bieber's mother, previously stood up for her son amid media scrutiny, saying that many are overlooking how many good things he does. Mallette appeared on Bravo TV's "Watch What Happens Live" where she also admitted that she knew her son was not always on his best behavior.
"I definitely think he's getting a bad rap ... He knows what I disagree with, and he knows all the things that I'm really proud of him for, too," Mallette told Cohen. "I mean, people don't talk about all the great things he does every day."
Mallette pointed out that her son meets with children from the Make-A-Wish charity foundation before each of his shows.
