"A woman who claimed that Justin Bieber was responsible for damaging her hearing when she attended one of his concerts has dropped her lawsuit. Stacey Betts took her daughter to a Portland, Oregon performance of Bieber&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;My World&amp;#039; tour in July 2010 and alleged that a &amp;quot;heart-shaped aluminum/steel gondola&amp;quot; that lifted the singer into the air had caused a &amp;quot;wave-like effect of screaming&amp;quot; that caused permanent hearing loss.  Last July, Betts launched proceedings seeking $9.2 million (\u00C2\u00A35.8m) in damages from Bieber, claiming that he had also &amp;quot;enticed the crowd into a frenzy of screams&amp;quot; by waving his arms up and down. Betts has now filed papers with the court requesting that the case be dismissed as she has no legal representation and is unable to continue her action, TMZ reports. Earlier this month, Bieber was sued by a former bodyguard for unpaid wages and an alleged assault in October 2012.
