A platinum album in less than two months of release, seven songs from a debut album hitting the top pop 100, awards and nominations, live performances and world tours, this is now the life of a sixteen-year old Canadian pop and R&B singer, Justin Bieber. After his video was discovered on the YouTube by a former marketing executive, Scooter Braun, Justin Bieber's success has taken the music scene by storm.
When Justin Bieber's mother first became aware of his musical abilities she hoped he would become a Christian rock star. He had taught himself how to play guitar and keyboard and soon was playing for small change on the streets of his small Canadian hometown. In his first summer of performing he earned three thousand dollars in tips. He used this new-found source of income to take his mom with him for a visit to Disneyland. It was a nice sum of money for a poor fourteen year old kid but it was nothing compared to the fame and fortune which would soon be literally knocking on his door.
His mother Pattie had taken some videos of him performing at amateur contests and like any proud mom might do, posted them to YouTube for her friends and family to view. While these started to gain some views from outside of their circle of acquaintances they were literally stumbled on by a man who would change Justin Bieber's life forever.
