Overview
- During DJ Gryffin’s Aug. 16 set at Wynn Las Vegas’s XS, the impersonator performed Bieber’s song “Sorry” as the crowd recorded and cheered.
- Reports identify the man as Dylan Desclos, a French Bieber lookalike with a documented history of public impersonations and viral posts.
- Wynn says stage access resulted from an “elaborate and multi-step ruse,” after which Desclos was removed from the property and permanently banned.
- Desclos’s camp told USA TODAY he attended as an impersonator and was asked to perform, while it remains unclear how venue checks were bypassed or who facilitated access.
- Multiple outlets report he and his entourage ran up nearly $10,000 in bottle service that was paid before he was expelled, as Gryffin later recounted the episode on Instagram as “biebergate2025.”
