Hate it or love it, Justin Bieber is getting back to being the man these days. From selling out arenas, to befriending mega moguls, to modeling underwear, Bieber does it all. Interview Magazine caught up with the 21-year-old pop star and talked about what it is like being a pop sensation.
In the cover shoot for Interview, Justin Bieber bares it all in his series of shirtless polaroid photots. Bieber talked about his humble beginnings back in Canada before his big break. He told Interview, "I grew up in a really rural town, Stratford, Ontario, with 30,000 people. There's a big festival thrown in the town. A lot of people travel from all over the world to see it, and growing up, I actually used to busk on the street. I'd play my guitar, sing, and people would throw money in the case. That was really fun, and I actually got enough money to bring my mom to Florida to go to Disney World, because I always wanted to go but we never had enough money."
Money certainly isn't an issue for the "Never Say Never" singer nowadays. He admitted, "I don't own a jet but I rent jets in my spare time...I do love cars. I've got a Ferrari. It's red. And then I have an Audi R8, which is matte black. I have a Range Rover. I have a Mercedes-Maybach." But Bieber doesn't just splurge on cars, he also invests. He stated, "I actually own a piece of West Coast Customs. It's a car company out here that does up really nice cars. So I keep a lot of them in the shop on display when I'm not using them. Just to help out the business. I've always loved doing up my cars, so being able to just take my car in at any time and tell them what to do, and not have to pay for it because I own the company, is pretty cool."
Bieber also discussed the progress on his upcoming album, stating, "The new album's going really well. I'm working a lot with Skrillex and Diplo and this guy named Poo Bear, who's an incredible writer. We've just been getting our groove. You kind of go through a period where you're in there and nothing comes and nothing comes, and then, finally, it's like bang-bang-bang-you get them all in a row. I'm at a place where I'm really happy and I'm ready to share my music." Are you anticipating Bieber's new album?
