BiographyJustin Drew Bieber ( BEE-bər; born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian singer. Regarded as a pop icon, he is recognized for his multi-genre musical performances. He was discovered by American record executive Scooter Braun in 2008 and subsequently brought to American singer Usher, both of whom formed the record label RBMG Records to sign Bieber in October of that year. He gained recognition following the release of his debut extended play (EP), My World (2009), which was quickly met with international commercial success and led to his establishment as a teen idol.

Bieber was ushered into mainstream stardom with his teen pop–driven debut studio album, My World 2.0 (2010), which debuted atop the US Billboard 200 and made him the youngest solo male act to do so in 47 years. The album was supported by the single "Baby" (featuring Ludacris), which became one of the best selling singles of all time. His second studio album, Under the Mistletoe (2011), became the first Christmas album by a male artist to debut atop chart and saw continued success. Bieber experimented with dance-pop on his third studio album, Believe (2012); its acoustic re-release made him the first artist in Billboard history to have five US number-one albums by the age of 18. Over the next two years, Bieber was involved in multiple controversies and legal issues, which led to a tarnishing of his public image.

In 2015, Bieber explored EDM on "Where Are Ü Now" (with Jack Ü), which won the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Recording. The genre influenced his fourth album, Purpose (2015), which produced three Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles: "Love Yourself", "Sorry", and "What Do You Mean?". He made UK chart history as the first artist to simultaneously hold the top three spots on the country's chart. In 2017, Bieber's guest performances on the singles "I'm the One" by DJ Khaled and "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi both peaked the Billboard Hot 100, making him the first artist to replace himself atop the chart with new songs in back-to-back weeks. The latter also earned him a Latin Grammy Award. In 2019, his single "10,000 Hours" (with Dan + Shay) won the Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. His R&B-inspired fifth album, Changes (2020), debuted at number one in both the UK and US, while his standalone duet single "Stuck with U" (with Ariana Grande) debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100. His sixth album, Justice (2021), was supported by the worldwide hit single "Peaches" and topped the Billboard 200, breaking Elvis Presley's 1965 record for the youngest solo act to have eight US number-one albums. His eighth US number-one single, "Stay" (with the Kid Laroi), was released the same year.

Bieber is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated sales of over 150 million records worldwide. He is credited with five diamond certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Bieber's various awards include 2 Grammy Awards, 1 Latin Grammy Award, 8 Juno Awards, 2 Brit Awards, 26 Billboard Music Awards, 18 American Music Awards, 22 MTV Europe Music Awards (the most wins for any artist), 23 Teen Choice Awards (the most wins for a male individual), and 33 Guinness World Records. Time named Bieber one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2011, and he was included on Forbes' list of the top ten most powerful celebrities in 2011, 2012, and 2013. In 2024, he was named the eighth-greatest pop star of the 21st century by Billboard.
