Eh not really. He showed him an old picture of him early in his career, then said "When you think back to that time, going to all of these radio stations for the first time, having a song out and all of the screaming kids, what do you think of?" then "Do you look at a kid now like Shawn Mendes and think like, 'Man, I wish it was going through what he is going through now with what I know now'?"
Even if he didn't know who Shawn was, its not hard to know what he meant and just answer the question without saying something rude like that. You'd think someone who has been doing this as long as Justin has would have some more common sense and proper PR behavior. It's like Katy saying "Who are they" when Fifth Harmony won a VMA last year (except Justin was in a live interview). Just not the time or place, and you should have some common sense to know that it sounds rude.
