Who is Justin Bieber? Posted at 4/06/2010 02:47:00 PM 0 comments (+) I'm asking because I don't know who the hell he is. I first heard his name last April Fool's and then our second encounter was last Friday when I saw his name in one of the magazines in the stand. I even asked hubby who he is and he has no idea too.

Anyway, here's what I found out from WIKIPEDIA:

Justin Drew Bieber (pronounced /ˈbiːbər/, BEE-bər; born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian pop/R&B singer. His performances were seen on YouTube by Scooter Braun, who later became his manager. Braun flew Bieber to Atlanta, Georgia, to consult with Usher. He soon was signed to a joint venture between Braun and Usher called Raymond-Braun Music Group, and then with L.A. Reid and Island Def Jam.

His debut single, "One Time", was released worldwide during 2009, and charted within the top thirty in over ten countries. It was followed up by his debut release, My World on November 17, 2009, which was certified platinum in the United States, which at the time gave Bieber the highest debut by a new artist in the year, and made Bieber the first artist to have seven songs from a debut album chart on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. His first full studio release, My World 2.0 was released on March 23, 2010, debuting at number one and within the top ten of several countries. It was preceded by the international hit song, "Baby".

There it is! At least now I know a bit about this boy. ;)
