It seemed that his journey to success was already paved for him. He joined a local 노래 contest called Stratford Idolat the age of 12. Though competing against kids his age that had vocal training, he still placed second. His 노래 found its way in the WOrld Wide Web for his 프렌즈 and families to watch whenever they can't watch him perform live. The YouTube channel kidraul had caught the attention of the online community and in two years, it already racked up millions of hits. It's through YouTube that his manager, Scooter Braun, from So So Def, discovered him. He was just 13 then and he was all ready to conquer the bigger stage.
Because of his undeniable talent, his idols Justin Timberlake and 어셔 both offereed him recoed deal. Eventually he signed with Usher, whom he had a funny encounter with before he came part of Island Def 잼 Records: "Right when we flew into Atlanta, Scooter drove us to the studio and 어셔 was there in the parking lot. That was my first time ever being out of Canada so I went up to him and was like, 'Hey Usher, I 사랑 your songs, do 당신 want me to sing 당신 one?' He was like, 'No, little buddy, just come inside , it's cold out." Now they're on the same record label, Justin still teases 어셔 about their "first encounter".
Justin Bieber is a complete package- he's got the looks, the talent and the hit songs. It wont take long for him to be a 음악 superstar. But he's like everyone of us in every way. He's just an ordinary kid from Canada who dreamt big. His success may be larger than he imagined it would be, but his 심장 can overpower any of it's challenges.
동물 have a special place in Justin's priorities. He is proud supporter of People for the Ethical Treatment of 동물 (PETA), that encourages people to adaopt homeless pets at animal shelters instead of buying them at stores. He's not just an animal lover, he wants to be a role model for the youth. "Im lookinf 앞으로 to influencing others in a positive way," says Justin.
With that, his blossoming carrer will prove to be not just one time, big time thing.
