Justin Bieber seems to want to start a new feud with Lindsay Lohan! The Biebs sent out an Instagram rant bragging that he's red-hot, and LiLo is ice cold.

His post started off with praising his own brilliance, saying, "It must be scary to some people to think that this is just the beginning [for me]. I know my talent level." He then decided to drive home the point by comparing himself to the only person who makes him seem reasonable these days, writing, "To those comparing me to Lindsay Lohan, look at her 2012 tax statements."

One of his handlers apparently talked some sense into the kid, because he pulled the post down an hour or so later before re-posting it -- with all references to Lohan removed.

I have a feeling these statements from him are going to get more entertaining as time goes on. This should be good!
