Canadian Justin Bieber is the son of a single mother, Pattie Mallette, who fell pregnant when she was 18 years old. As a child, Bieber showed a strong interest in music, teaching himself to play many instruments. When he was 12 he entered a local talent competition, and was placed second. His mother posted his performance on YouTube, and continued to post other clips of Bieber singing.

The videos soon built up a fan following, and caught the attention of talent agent Scooter Braun. Braun was able to secure an impromptu audition with Usher Raymond, who was impressed and helped Bieber to sign a record deal. His first single "One Time", was a worldwide hit and was certified Platinum in Canada and the United States. This was followed by Bieber's debut album, "My World", which was an international smash. He also released a successful concert film Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (2011). 

Bieber continues with a hugely successful music career and has tried his hand at acting, including guest starring in an episode of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (2000). He has a large and loyal fanbase, who are said to have 'Bieber Fever' and are nicknamed 'Bielbers'.
