One Time Big Time For Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber is not a regular 15-year-old boy. He already has singles on Billboard Hot 100, 10 million hits(and counting) on his personal YouTube account, and he hangs out with R&B superstar Usher. A self-taught singer, dancer and musician (he plays the guitar, drums, piano and trumpet) who still maintains his 4.0 average in school, Justin is made of pure talent. Not to mention a boyish charm that sent tweens, and even some adults, swooning.
It seemed like his journey to success was already paved for him. He joined a local singing contest called Statford Idol at the age of 12. though competing against kids his age that had vocal training, he still placed second. his singing found its way to the World Wide Web for his friends and family to watch whenever they can't watch him perform live. The YouTube channel kidrauhl 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 if his undeniable talent, his idols Justin Timberlake and Usher both offered him a record deal. Eventually he signed with Usher, whom he had funny encounter before he became part of Island Def Jam Records: "Right when we flew into Atlanta, Scooter drove us into the studio and usher 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 love your songs, do you want me to sing you one?' He was like, 'No little buddy, just come inside, it's cold out.'" Now there on the same record label, Justin still teases Usher about their "first encounter".
One Time came to the Philippines like a super typhoon, overtaking huge acts in the MYX Daily Top Ten and in the local radio stations. Indeed, justin Bieber has caused such a frenzy in the Filipino market. His debut album My World is a surefire hit generator. the latest release, One Less Lonely Girl, has already gained momentum in the international charts. Justin just started but he's already in a roll.
Justin bieber is a complete package- He's got the looks, the talent, and the hit songs. It won't take long for him to become a music superstar. But he's like every one 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 heart can overpower any of its challenges.
Animals have special place in Justin's priorities. He is a proud supporter of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals(PETA), that encourages people to adopt 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 of the youth. "I'm looking forward to influencing others in a positive way, "says Justin.
With that, his blossoming career will prove to be not just a one time, big time thing.
