Justin Bieber being an angel… literally, with wings and all!
Justin Bieber has made history, he is one of the most loved and celebrated celebrity and musicians of all time. His fans are unique because they do everything 110% (Like Justin does with his work, whether it be product endorsement, recording an album in the studio, charity work, or performing live.) Shy is one thing Justin Bieber’s fan base and ‘bielebers’ are not.
No conservative admiration here. He really had made history, in a few short years he literally went from being a kid on YouTube to a world-class musician and entertainer. His fan base consists of both ”normal” people, mostly pre-teen or teenage females, and fellow celebrities, of both sexes and all ages.
Since he was a baby, Justin loved music. Although he didn’t realize it at the time, he had a special talent… the same talent that we hear in his music, and see in his performances as well as his debut documentary/concert film,
Justin Bieber: Never Say Never. His musical talent is amazing, and something that doesn’t need explanation… The 17-year-old has had several Chart-topping hits, his own film that was shown in theaters, and fans in every country around the world.The teen has been invited to so many very important red carpet events, and televised award ceremonies. He has been nominated for a ton of awards, and won a lot of them, often winning most of the awards he was nominated for. At this year’s annual Teen Choice Awards, he won FOUR of the FIVE awards he was nominated for. At age 17. Wow.
Even if you’re not a fan of his music, most people who read a little bit about Justin have respect for him and his big heart. He is involved in several charitable causes and non-profit organizations one way or another. For example, products that Justin puts his name on and endorses tend to sell very well, and a portion of the profits go to benefit a selected non-profit organization or charity. A portion of proceeds from his “One Less Lonley Girl” by popular nail lacquer company,
Nicole for OPI nail polish collection go to the non-profit organization,
Pencils of Promise who helps provide education in developing countries. Very recently, his perfume for ladies,
“Someday”, was stocked on store shelves. When he was developing the perfume, he partnered up with
Give Back Brands to ensure that if the product has his name on it, portions of proceeds would go to charities and non-profit organizations. For this one, he intends to benefit more than one organization, so far we know that the perfume
“Someday” will benefit the
Make-A-Wish Foundation, and provide even more funds for the aforementioned non-profit organization
Pencils of Promise.
His charitable heart goes outside the realm of product endorsement though. The tragic earthquake off the Pacific coast o Tokyo in Japan, AKA The Tokyo earthquake and the tsunami,we all heard about on the News occurred on March 11th,2011. Very soon afterward, when both the victims in Japan, and shocked people worldwide thought this situation couldn’t get any worse, it did. Like a domino effect, the earthquake and tsunamis damage and chaos triggered
another tragedy. Nuclear power leaked from three of the reactors at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant Complex. The area was immediately evacuated. Nuclear power is no joke, twenty years from now, I predict that the mess will be cleaned up, new buildings, homes, schools, roads and highways will be built and the country will be considered “restored”, although the people will not forget… much like I,as an American will never forget September 11th, 2001 despite the fact that it’s been almost ten years, and I live nowhere near New York.Other countries, including the United States send help such as the Red Cross, but the damage was virtually unmeasurable, and the country and it’s people needed all the help they could get, be it medical attention from doctors and nurses, food and clean water, overnight shelters, teddy bears to comfort confused and shocked children, and money to buy any needed supplies to help the people of Japan. With the unbelievable state the country was in, Justin Bieber’s crew decided they wanted to skip Japan altogether on Justin’s world tour,
My World 2.0. But Justin had “The Show Must Go On” attitude, and even if just for an hour or two, Justin Bieber’s fans in Japan got to enjoy a couple of concerts Justin played in the country. Not only did he risk the danger to be there for his fans as planned, but he donated close to Millon USD to Japanese relief efforts.
Justin also grew up playing sports whether it was for fun, or on a competitive team at school in his hometown in Canada. In fact, he has admitted to the media that although music has always played a big role in his life, it hasn’t always been his number one, in his own words Justin has said
“I played hockey,soccer,basketball. Back then, [Before he was a famous musician] music was No. 2. I was more into sports”He played on a
hockey team before the fame came, after all
he is a native Canadian, lol
(See the adorable photo of a younger Justin in his team’s uniform, just below this paragraph)He also likes playing
basketball for fun…and he is actually darn good at it too, him being “vertically challenged” doesn’t limit his skills on the court. In fact, he won the title MVP in the 2011 NBA All-Star Celebrity game through vote.(Didn’t get the full story? Check out our very own article about the celebrity game,
“Justin Bieber voted and named MVP in 2011 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game”.) Being the sweetheart he is, The Beibs was spotted playing basketball with a group of local kids in Israel during his
“My World: 2.0″ world tour. He also likes
golf, and while it’s not the most exciting sport in the world, Justin plays for his own reasons…he likes the sense of peace and relaxation with the combo of the great outdoors and a leisurely game. Like millions of other 17-year old boys, Justin likes
skateboarding too, I think we’ve all seen a pic or two of him on a skateboard. When he’s in the mood he doesn’t care if he goes to a skatepark to use the ramps and poles to do moves and tricks as they were designed for, or improvising in a parking lot or strip mall with their railings, concrete steps, curbs or whatever else is around. I’ve also seen a picture of him doing a trick while
BMX Biking, and thought wow, he is good at practically everything he tries! Many fan sites and blogs also claim that Justin enjoys
soccer and
football.
Justin Bieber being the kind of pop star he is, with respect for his fans and family (who he calls his “number 1 fans”) and never forgetting his roots and where he came from, he is one of the few ideal role models teens have to look up to these days. He keeps busy with recording albums and singles, having appearances in his celebrity friend’s hit songs and music videos as well as supporting them when they are nominated for an award or attending a special event. His calendar is also booked with attending award ceremonies
he has nominations for or making it to special events where lines of fans wait to get his autograph, without any of that ”man-diva attitude”. And with the long list of charitable causes Justin supports, along with products he endorses and puts his name on that have portions of profits benefitting his favorite and hand-picked charities and non-profit organizations, he has a lot of promotional events for each of those on his calender.Justin still does the “average kid” thing as well, still playing his favorite sports when he has the time, spending time with his family…mostly his mom who goes on tour with him, and setting up practical jokes and pranks for his fellow tour mates on the road, or friends and family back home.
A younger Justin on his hometown’s hockey team. Adorable!!
I won’t go as far to name names, or point fingers but many parents don’t approve of the celebrities their teenage daughters and sons look up to as role models, or idolize completely. They say any publicity is good publicity, but for many young stars of today, an overwhelming portion of their “publicity” is about something negative that parents would never want to see their teens doing. We see them on T.V. for yet another court appearance for a probation violation, jail sentence or arrest for drunk driving or any other irresponsible decisions. They appear on the front page for being pregnant as teenagers, or accused of having an eating disorder, with a few photos to back up the claim. I am not a parent, but I agree that if I did have a son or daughter, especially in the extra vulnerable teenage years, I wouldn’t want their idols and role models to exhibit any of the aforementioned behavior of a growing number of young Hollywood stars, especially in this age with so many media outlets…news travels fast!
Justin Bieber is an exception, along with a handful of other young Hollywood stars and starlets. With Justin leading a responsible and quite well-rounded life,always possessing a can-do, positive attitude, and his heart of gold for caring and getting involved in so many causes he is left with almost no free time. It’s no wonder parents accept Justin Bieber as an acceptable role model for their preteen or teenage kids…one of the very few young celebrities left that are good role models for teenagers to look up to and see as a true role model.
