Justin Bieber and rumored new girlfriend, Hailey Baldwin, drew quite the crowd when he showcased his hit-and-miss skateboarding skills on steps at Madison Square Garden in New York.
The 20-year-old singer and 18-year-old daughter of Hollywood actor Stephen Baldwin set off romance speculation over the weekend, after they were spotted dining together in NYC at Mr. Chow on Friday and the Bowery Meat Company steakhouse on Saturday.
The fun continued on Sunday, after the longtime pals — who deny they are dating — were spotted by eyewitnesses at the Hillsong NYC Church.
Shortly after; Justin, Hailey, mutual pal videographer Alfredo Flores and a few bodyguards headed over to Madison Square Garden.
The Biebs delighted the fans and onlookers who gathered to watch as he made numerous failed attempts to skateboard down steps at the famed, indoor arena.
Some of the heartthrob’s skateboarding tries resulted in him landing flat on his rear.

To his credit, the Biebs kept on trying, and reportedly jokingly asking the NYC crowd to yell encouragements.
When he accomplished a smooth run, he exclaimed, “That’s all I needed!”
Say what you will, the kid’s a trier.
Fan Cory Levy, posted a video on Instagram showing the pop star excitedly asking,
“Did you see me land that trick like a frikken boss?…”
Justin later tweeted a clip of his triumphant moment to his 58.5 million followers.
He also noted, “Fun day in nyc. Love all my beliebers.”
During his impromptu kpo skateboarding session , the “Heartbreaker” hitmaker posed for photos with fans, many of which have since popped up online.
Fans snapped the newly platinum-blonde singer trying to hide behind his skateboard as he walked through Times Square.
It’s not yet known where Justin will see 2015 in, or with whom. Based on recent hangouts with Hailey, the pair may spend it together.
In addition to previous denials, the blonde model recently took to Twitter to address media rumors claiming that she and the ex-beau of Selena Gomez spent the night together after their Friday dinner and movie date.
“Glad I got such a good night sleep last night, at MY own home, alone,” Hailey insisted.
She added, “Quit it with the stories!”
Two weeks ago, Justin took to Instagram to say his piece. Alongside a pic of himself with Hailey, he wrote, “People are crazy. I’m super single and this is my good friend you would know otherwise.”
Still, no-one would be surprised if they do skateboard off into the sunset together for New Year’s.
