Justin Bieber Puts Soccer Skills to Test in Spain

Pop sensation Justin Bieber has proved once again that he's not only talented in singing and dancing, but also good in sport. Having won MVP title at NBA Celebrity All-Star Game in February, the 17-year-old singer went on to show off his skills in playing soccer when stopping in Spain for the European leg of his My World tour. 

On Monday, April 4, the teen heartthrob was snapped working up a sweat in a soccer match against some local teens on the outskirts of Madrid. During the game, he managed to score a goal and in celebration, he lifted up his F.C. Barcelona jersey to give a flash of his abs. Afterward, he took to Twitterto share, "just got done playing soccer aka (futbol) with @itsryanbutler." 

Two days earlier, Justin came to the aid of his mother. On Saturday night, April 2 at his Berlin concert at O2 World arena, the "Baby" hitmaker presented Pattie Mallette with a birthday cake on stage. Unfortunately, she leaned in a little too close when blowing out the candles that a few strands of her hair caught on fire. But, Justin was quick to put out the flames. 

Both Justin and his mother have shared about the incident on Twitter. Pattie first wrote, "Thank u @justinbieber for the cake (& embarrassing me on stage lol)." Justin followed with a tweet that read, "sick show in Berlin...brought @studiomama on stage 2 sing her happy bday but she lit her hair on fire with the candles. lol. i saved her."

Justin Bieber Goofs Around With His Wax Figure

Teen heartthrob Justin Bieber has got the chance to stand next to and strike playful poses with his very own wax figure. The "Baby" hitmaker took some time off his My World Tour in Europe on Tuesday, March 15, and stopped by Madame Tussauds in London for the unveiling ceremony of his life-like replica.

At the special event, the 17-year-old singer pretended to box with as well as hugged his likeness, which is dressed in a red and black checked shirt and black jeans, for the press. Of the waxwork, he said, "It's pretty incredible to see." He was quick to add a joke, quipping "As you can see, you know, I'm at least six feet taller than this guy."

Pretty excited about his replica, Justin also tweeted several photos of him and the statue. In a caption of one posting, he wrote, "TWINS! Lol." In another, he joked, "knew @studiomama had more kids! me and my mom and lil bro." Afterward, he tweeted, "thanks to the fans and @TussaudsLondon for today. from staring thru the glass to being made in wax inside..."

The London wax figure was one of three Bieber replicas being unveiled on Tuesday. Two others were simultaneously unveiled at Madame Tussauds museums in Amsterdam and New York. The New York figure sports a black vest and black Balenciaga pants and was surrounded by the replicas of the Obamas, John F. Kennedy, Ghandi and Princess Diana among others.

The life-like replica's not an identical match to Justin since he has changed quickly over the eight months the figure was made. Putting that into consideration, spokeswoman for the museum, Liz Edwards, explained, "So we really wanted to make sure we made a 'moment in time' figure. But it's the hair that everyone is paying the biggest attention to. So, I'd say it's the hair that's been the biggest challenge."

Justin Bieber Trains Boxing With Champion David Haye

Teen sensation Justin Bieber has been learning how to land a left hook from British boxing champion David Haye. The "Baby" hitmaker shed his clean-cut image and stepped into the ring with the current World Heavyweight Champion at his training gym in London on Sunday, March 13.

And Haye admits he was impressed with his opponent's punching skills, writing in a post on his Twitter.com page, "Great workout in The Hayemaker Boxing Gym, Justin Bieber. You sure can pack punch!! I'm now a Belieber! Stay Blessed!"

Meanwhile, Justin gushed, "Worked out with Boxing Heavyweight Champion of the World David Haye. I took it easy on him. haha. good times (sic)."

It's not the first time the boxing giant has taken on a pop heavyweight - he sparred with rapper Dizzee Rascal earlier this year.

Video Premiere: Justin Bieber's 'That Should Be Me' Ft. Rascal Flatts

Justin Bieber is jamming with Rascal Flatts in a newly-debuted music video for their joint track "That Should Be Me". The 17-year-old singer filmed the video with the country music band last month after he cut his signature hair flip to give him a more mature look.

The original version of "That Should Be Me" appears in Bieber's "My World 2.0" CD, and the revamped version is recorded for "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never" soundtrack album. Of crossing genre from pop to country, he told ABC, "Music is music, and it's a universal language. It doesn't really matter what style, as long as it appeals to others and people like it, that's all that really matters."

Bieber recently appeared on the Gary LeVox-fronted band's ABC television concert special. The program aired on March 12, and additionally featured a behind-the-scene footage of "That Should Be Me" video. Beside the Canadian singer, Rascal Flatts were also joined by another special guest Natasha Bedingfield.

Justin Bieber Leaves Hotel After Fans Break-Out


Teen sensation Justin Bieber was forced out of his hotel in Liverpool, England on Friday, March 11, after two fans sneaked into his suite dressed as cleaners, according to a U.K. report. The "Baby" hitmaker caused mayhem before his gig at the city's Liverpool Echo Arena after fans camped outside his hotel, prompting local cops to try and manage the crowds in a bid to avoid a "riot situation". 

He was asked by officers to make an appearance on his balcony to help disperse the fans eager for a glimpse of their idol. But Bieber decided not to return to his hotel room after his concert upon hearing that two fans disguised as cleaners had made their way into his suite before being discovered by his security team. 

According to Britain's Daily Mirror, Bieber slept on his tour bus after hearing how the 16 and 18 year olds tried to get into his bed. A source tells the publication, "The hotel was swamped by fans all desperate to catch a glimpse of Justin. But two particularly enterprising girls snuck in through a side entrance, and stole two housekeeping outfits." 

"After ditching their regular clothes and slipping into their new costumes, they got the lift to Justin's suite and knocked on the door, calling 'housekeeping'. Having been allowed in, the girls began half-heartedly polishing tables and dusting surfaces." 

"No one clocked on [realised] until the girls were alone, and in his bedroom, taking pictures of his personal possessions on their phones. A member of Justin's entourage in another part of the suite heard them giggling and came through, catching them in the act. The girls, following a telling-off, were evicted from the premises."

Justin Bieber Premieres "Never Say Never" in NYC

Justin Bieber Premieres 
"Never Say Never" in NYC



Closing out another night on the red carpet, Justin Bieber was the center of attention at the New York City premiere of "Never Say Never" on Wednesday night (February 2).

Held at Regal E-Walk 13, the 16-year-old phenom was decked out in an all-black ensemble with a purple bowtie and matching shades as he greeted fellow attendees including Russell 'Russy' Simmons, Daniel 'Diggy' Simmons, Lynsey Mickolas, L.A. Reid and director Jon M. Chu.

With the film set to hit theaters on February 11th, Mr Chu was recently asked by MTV News if he received any ribbing from his friends when he signed on to spearhead Bieber's movie project.


To this, the "Step Up 3D" director replied, "There's always people [giving me flak], whether it's the 'Step Up' movies, dance movies or the Justin Bieber movie. People will make fun of you, but now they truly have the fever, for sure. Since [I signed on], he's won four American Music Awards, including Artist of the Year, he's nominated for two Grammys he's on the cover of Vanity Fair, and I think they've fallen for him as well."

Describing the picture as inspirational, Chu said, "Especially for this generation of kids, [it's important to show] that they could make it on their own without a big corporation. I thought it was an exciting way to tell it: through his music."

Justin Bieber Plans Star-Studded Album With Drake, Kanye and Chris Brown

A new tidbit about Justin Bieber's next studio installment is brought forward by none other than his own manager Scooter Braun. In an interview with MTV, the talent scouter revealed Drake and Kanye West are among his A-list featured guests.

"Yes, Justin is working on new music," the manager confirmed. "He's been talking to Drake about new music. [Bieber] and Kanye had a call today about a song they're trying to work on together. Kanye wants to produce a bunch of new songs for the new album."

Braun also named Chris Brown, stating that "Him and Chris Brown have been sending stuff back and forth to each other." Beside making music with the R&B and rap artists, Bieber is also working a country/pop crossover with Grammy-winning group Rascal Flatts.


The manager then played a clip of a new Bieber song to the publication, saying that it may come out on Valentine's Day, three days after his movie "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never" arrives in the U.S. theaters. It's not known whether the song is a solo or a duet though.

During the interview, MTV also took the advantage to ask Braun about the nature of Bieber and Selena Gomez's relationship. Brushing off the romance rumor, he said, "I know that him and the person you're asking about are really close friends and have been for awhile. As far as I know, that's what they are."

Braun stated further, "Everybody wants to know something. Here's what I'm going to tell you. This kid travels a lot and I always told him, I was always like, 'You shouldn't be in a relationship unless you can give someone everything'."

Back on his new music project, those working behind the production table with Bieber have also been revealed. In an interview with Rap-Up TV, Kevin Cossom spilled the beans that he, Danja and Bangladesh have been booked to help the Canadian singer make more mature sound with "edgy vibe."

Justin Bieber Wants 'Glee' Cameo for Himself and Cheryl Cole



Justin Bieber is campaigning to land British singer Cheryl Cole a cameo spot as a sexy teacher on hit U.S. TV show "Glee". The "Baby" hitmaker is reportedly in talks to film his own guest role on the all-singing-all-dancing program, but he insists he'll only agree if producers sign up theGirls Aloud beauty to star alongside him. 

He tells Britain's The Sun, "I am going to tell the producers that it must be in the agreement that Cheryl

gets a part in the show as well. Cheryl and the show make total sense. It's all about people who look good and can sing and dance - that's totally Cheryl." 

"I have told her every time I have seen her that as soon as she lands in the U.S. for 'The X Factor' I am going to work with her. Glee is a great way to introduce her to the States - everybody is watching it. She looks beautiful, but I am not sure she could quite get away with playing a student. It would be great if she played a substitute teacher taking a sabbatical from England or something. Can you imagine how hot Cheryl would look dressed as a school teacher?" 

Bieber made his affections for the British star clear when he performed on Simon Cowell's "The X Factor" - on which Cole is a judge - last year.

Justin Bieber Aiming for Michael Jackson's Success



Justin Bieber's goal in life is to reach the same level of fame as his idol Michael Jackson. The teenage pop star cites the "Thriller" hitmaker as his greatest influence, and admits he strives to emulate Jackson's success as an entertainer. 

And Bieber hopes his music will eventually reach a wider audience so he can be appreciated by fans of all ages. He tells Vanity Fair magazine, "Music is music, and I'm definitely influenced by Michael Jackson." 

"Michael was able to reach audiences from young to old; he never limited himself. He was so broad, everybody loved him, and that's what my goal is - to basically make people happy, to inspire them, and to have everyone root for me." 

And Bieber hopes more men will start listening to his music, adding, "For younger guys, it's like (they think) they're not cool if they come to my concert. That'll (change), I think; it'll happen, maybe when I'm 18. But meanwhile all their girlfriends are coming to watch me."

Chris Brown's New Songs 'Where Do We Go' and 'Look at Me'

Justin Bieber had a good time during his stay in Africa, and he shared it with his fans. The Canadian singer played cowbell and other instruments with an African band when he was at the restaurant Mama Africa in Cape Town, South Africa.

"The band was playing and I decided to just jump up and join them," he wrote in an accompanying video. "Everyone was staring at me at dinner so I just figured what the heck let's party!! It was great and me and the band had alot of fun. I LOVE MUSIC!! MAMA AFRICA!!"

Justin Bieber has been traveling around the world over the course of 2010, and he will be back on the road for another European leg of his tour later this year. He will tag along fellow young singer Willow Smith for the extended traveling show.

Selena Gomez Receives Death Threats, Justin Bieber Praises His Fans

So much for being a heartthrob's lover, Selena Gomez has received death threats from Justin Bieber's fans after photos of their intimate moment leaked. The teen stars went on a Caribbean vacation together over the New Year and despite their denial of a romance, the photos showed that 'friends' is not the right term.

Now the Twitter-verse has been filled with nasty comments for Gomez who is two years older than Bieber. One fan wrote," If you are the Girlfriend of Justin I will Kill you I HATE YOU :@ !!!" and another threatened, "stay away from Justin pedophile, retard wait i'm gonna kill ya in the night underneath your smelly bed."

So serious is this taken that Reuters noted that "Americans were quick to note that any sexual relationship between Bieber at 16, and 'older woman' Gomez would amount to statutory rape under U.S. law as Bieber is well below the age of consent."


Bieber and Gomez have not uttered a word about this as of press time. The "Baby" hitmaker chose to praise his fans instead, tweeting they "r the greatest" and "I never have to worry about the BS because they support me 4 me" when asked "whats one thing u like about your beliebers/fans?".
