Justin Bieber is one celebrity who people love to hate. At first, it was because of his boyish good looks, but lately, it’s been more about his obscene behavior and run-ins with the law. The pop star was born on March 1, 1994 in Ontario, Canada. His manager Scooter Braun first discovered him through his YouTube channel in 2007. After contacting his mother and arranging for Bieber to meet Usher, the young singer was signed to RBMG and then to an Island Records recording contract.
The performer released his debut EP in 2009, which was certified platinum in the United States. In 2010, the full album was released, helping Bieber become the first artist to have seven songs from a debut record to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was preceded by the single “Baby”, which coincidentally is the YouTube video with the most dislikes and the most views on a Vevo platform. His following two albums also debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, proving that preteen and teenage girls run the music industry.
In 2010, Justin Bieber started a celebrity relationship with actress and singer Selena Gomez, and the pair has been on-again, off-again numerous times since. As of now, they are still apart after having a huge fight right after one of their many celebrity vacations. The singer has been rumored to be dating at least seven other people throughout their relationship and love! In recent years, his legal issues have transformed his image from “boy-next-door” to “bad boy.” In 2014, he was labeled the most annoying celebrity of the year and frequently made headlines due to his lifestyle. As his image continues to transform, so does his music. He’s ditched his signature bowl-cut hair to a half bleached bedhead style, and his latest music, like his song Sorry, is gravitating to an electronic-inspired direction. He is most recently rumored to be dating Haley Baldwin.
