Justin Bieber biography

Justin Bieber is a 15 year-old music sensation from Stratford, Ontario, Canada. He plays guitar and keyboard and sings. Bieber rose to fame primarily through his presence on YouTube and Myspace, posting videos of himself covering songs by Usher, Stevie Wonder, Justin Timberlake, and others, which became extremely popular. The French-Canadian Justin Bieber is fluent in French which certainly gives him an advantage on his European tours.

Devotion to Fans and Presence on Twitter

He has also been known to give away tickets to free private shows for his most devoted fans, such as he did in Paris. Bieber's fans are among the most devoted in the world, many of them keep such a close watch on his Twitter updates because he keeps them updated on things such as the time he was sleeping on the floor of an airplane.

At the end of 2009 Justin shared his most touching memories on his official Twitter account as a tribute to his fans. Justin Bieber is a humble superstar with a devotion to the people who helped him in his path to fame.

Facts About Justin and his Young Rise to Fame

Justin Bieber is certainly changing the world in many ways, but many people wonder "can Justin Bieber even drive?" Yes, since Justin recently turned 16 years old at the time of this writing, he can now drive a car. It is funny that Justin Bieber had initially reached international stardom before he could even drive a car. Many people also wonder "how tall is Justin Bieber?" Justin's height is just 5'3" tall (160 centimeters) (see pictures of Justin's height here) but it is likely that he still has plenty of growing to do before he reaches his full height. A lot of people also wonder "what is Justin's eye color?" He has deep brown eyes. Many people also wonder how Justin Bieber gets his unique hairstyle. You can see pictures of Justin Bieber's hair here.

It is certain that Justin Bieber will write an autobiography one day since such an early rise to fame is not a common path for most people (read another Justin Bieber biography on Wikipedia). Hopefully it will highlight his experiences such as being mentored by Usher and being featured on ABC during the 2009/2010 New Years Eve ball drop in Times Square, New York with Dick Clark. Fittingly, Justin played his song "Rockin' New Years Eve." Many people will ask, "how did he get discovered?" Justin has worked closely with celebrities such as Ryan Seacrest, who has helped him with his rise to fame and who co-hosted the 2009 New Years Eve celebration in Times Square.

Many people also wonder what time did Justin Bieber perform in Times Square on New Years Eve 2010 on ABC? The Dick Clark show started at 11:30 PM EST and Justin was on the show for the duration of the night, and performed after the ball dropped at 12:00 AM EST on January 1st, 2010 (see Justin's Album "My World" on Amazon here).

His first studio album, My World, was released Nov 17, 2009. Two singles released from the album, "One Time" and "One Less Lonely Girl," were both very well-received, reaching the top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US, and the top 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 in Canada. Justin Bieber received his first Platinum Album Plaque for "My World" in December of 2009 (see Justin Bieber on the Billboard charts here).

Justin Bieber was also a presenter at the 2010 Grammy Awards, where he supposedly made a mistake due to the high pressure of the event (see videos of Justin Bieber here). Of course you cannot blame him since he is so young and that is a tremendous responsibility. Justin will certainly recover throughout his long, successful career as a musician.

Finding Justin Bieber's Golden Ticket

A notable fact about My World is that Bieber hid a "golden ticket" in one album. Whoever finds the golden ticket wins a private backyard concert from Bieber.

Rumors About Justin Bieber

There has been a lot of talk about Justin Bieber's life outside of his musical career that has no truth in it. One of these rumors is started by the common question, "does Justin Bieber have cancer?" or "did Justin Bieber die?" Some people have also speculated that because Justin had a sore throat one day that he has throat cancer. No, none of these things is true. Justin has never had cancer and he is still alive and well. You can tell that he is definitely still alive by visiting Justin's Amazon page here or his Twitter page here.

Although he has never had any serious illness himself, Justin is a strong advocate of fundraising for cancer survivors and attends events to promote these causes regularly.

Another rumor is that Justin Bieber has never been on an airplane. Since he is an international superstar this would be impossible since he must use an airplane to get to all of his concerts around the world. He has been caught sleeping on the floor of an airplane, however.
