Justin Bieber might not have sought fame, but his raw talent brought him to the attention of the music
Bieber is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated sales of over 150 million records worldwide and was born on March 1, 1994, in London, Ontario, at St Joseph’s Hospital. He was raised in Stratford, Ontario, by his single mother, Patricia. Justin Bieber started singing since he was 12 and finished the second place when participating in a local singing competition.
Justin Bieber has won 11 awards – MTV Video Music Award in 2015, Grammy Award in 2020, Grammy Award in 2015, American Music Award in 2017, American Music Award in 2017, American Music Award in 2017, American Music Award in 2016, American Music Award in 2016, American Music Award in 2016, American Music Award in 2016
“The other people in the competition had been taking singing lessons and had vocal coaches. I wasn’t taking it too seriously at the time, I would just sing around the house,” he recalled.
In an effort to share his victory to family and friends who missed his performances at the competition, he and his mother opened a YouTube account and posted his video performances on the file-sharing website. “I put my singing videos from the competition on YouTube so that my friends and family could watch them,” he stated. “But it turned out that other people liked them and they started subscribing to them. That’s how my manager found me. He saw me on YouTube and contacted my family and now I’m signed!”
His manager Scooter Braun flew Justin from his hometown Ontario, Canada to Atlanta, Georgia for a meeting with Usher. “I sang for him and his people and he really wanted to sign me then and there but I still had a meeting with Justin Timberlake who also wanted to sign me. It turned out Usher’s deal was way better. He had L.A. Reid backing him up and Scooter had a lot of really good connections in Atlanta,” he traced back his memory.
In October of 2008, Justin was officially signed to Island Records and began working on his debut album “My World”. Powerhouse producers like Christopher “Tricky” Stewart and The-Dream lent their helping hands on the effort. He also got Usher as his collaborator on one of the songs.
“My World” was released across United States on November 17. The album was preceded with four hit singles “One Time”, “One Less Lonely Girl”, “Love Me” and “Favorite Girl”, all of which cracked Top 15 of Canadian Singles chart and reached Top 40 of Billboard Hot 100. This achievement made him the only artist in Billboard history who has four singles from a debut album charting in the Top 40 of the Hot 100 before the album’s release.
Justin toured with Taylor Swift as her supporting act on two of her U.K. stops for “Fearless” tour. He also embarked on five headlining concerts in Canada. Moreover, he appeared in several hit U.S. TV shows, naming some were “Good Morning America”, “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”, “The George Lopez Tonight Show” and “Chelsea Lately Show”.
In the following year, Bieber dropped “My World 2.0” which boasted big hits like “Baby”, “Eenie Meenie” and “Somebody to Love”. Later in 2011, Bieber released the concert documentary “Never Say Never”. The movie, which eventually earned more than $73 million at the box office, also had guest appearances by Kanye West, Miley Cyrus and Bieber’s musical mentor Usher. That same year, Bieber released a holiday album called “Under the Mistletoe” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 upon its arrival in November.
Around the same time, he started working on his third album which was eventually revealed to be titled “Believe”. Its first single “Boyfriend” was released in early 2012 and became his biggest hit at that time as it reached No. 2 on Billboard Hot 100. Its parent album came out in June that year and was followed by a massive tour as well as another concert film titled “Justin Bieber’s Believe”.
While enjoying his success as a teen superstar, he began getting involved in a number of troubles. After being sued by a woman claiming he’s the father of her baby, Bieber was accused of spitting on his neighbor in addition to threatening him in March 2013. Two months later, members of Bieber’s neighborhood in Calabasas, California complained that he’s driving too fast in a residential area.
In January 2014, Bieber’s home in California was searched after he was accused of egging a neighbor’s house. Days later, he was arrested for suspicion of drag racing and driving under the influence. After a breathalyzer test showed that he wasn’t sober, he was taken into custody where he stayed until he posted bail, which was set at $2,500.
In addition to his bad behavior, Bieber often made headlines for his on-again, off-again relationship with Selena Gomez. The pair, who broke up in late 2012 after dating for two years, were frequently spotted together, sparking rumors that they rekindled their relationship.
In 2015, Bieber returned to the music scene when he appeared on Jack U a.k.a. Diplo and Skrillex’s “Where Are U Now”. The song was a hit, reaching the top 10 of Billboard Hot 100. Later in the year, he previewed his fourth album with “What Do You Mean” which went on to be his biggest hit to date, surpassing 2012’s “Boyfriend”. It debuted at No. 1 on Hot 100, becoming only the 23rd song in the chart’s history to do so. It also shattered Spotify’s record which was set by One Direction a few weeks earlier.
Bieber’s new album, which he’s said will feature songs inspired by ex-girlfriend Gomez, will hit the stores on November 13.
“What Do You Mean” was followed by his album’s second single “Sorry”. Just like the lead single, “Sorry” was a hit among fans and topped Billboard’s Hot 100. Its third single, “Love Yourself”, also ruled the weekly chart. With that said, Justin became the first male artist in almost a decade to have three No. 1 songs from an album since Justin Timberlake’s “FutureSex/LoveSounds” in 2006.
Following the success of its three singles, “Purpose” made its way out on November 13, 2015 to both critical and commercial success. It debuted at No. 1 on Billboard 200, marking his sixth No. 1 album and largest sales week as it sold 649,000 units in its first week. The album eventually was announced as the fourth best-selling album of the year with 3.1 million copies sold. In addition to that, it was nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album at the 59th Grammy Awards.
Justin continued working on music after “Purpose”, teaming up with Major Lazer on “Cold Water” and DJ Snake on “Let Me Love You” in 2016. Both songs performed well on music charts. In the following year, he joined forces with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee for the remix of their song “Despacito”, which became a huge hit among people. It was nominated for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 60th Grammy Awards in addition to winning several awards at the Billboard Latin Music Awards.
Another hit that Justin released in 2017 was his collaboration with Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne on DJ Khaled’s “I’m the One”. Released on April 28, the song debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100. He later released a single titled “Friends” and reunited with Khaled, Chance and Quavo for their July 2018 collaboration “No Brainer”.
Besides releasing a collaboration, 2018 saw Justin getting engaged to Hailey Baldwin before the two tied the knot later in November that year. As he enjoyed his newlywed life with Hailey, the singer went on a hiatus from his music career to focus on his mental health. Later on, during the 2019 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Justin announced that he’s working on his fifth studio album, before making a comeback through his Ed Sheeran collaboration “I Don’t Care”. The song peaked at No.2 on Billboard’s Hot 100.
Justin was also featured in the remix of Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and teamed up with Dan + Shay for a song entitled “10,000 Hours”. Prior to the release of “10,000 Hours”, Justin and Hailey had an official wedding ceremony in Bluffon, South Carolina on September 30, 2019.
Welcoming the new year, Justin finally unleashed the lead single of his highly-anticipated album. Titled “Yummy”, the song was released on January 3, 2020. Justin also announced that he would premiere a YouTube docuseries and embark on a tour in support of the album. Prior to the release of the docuseries, Justin revealed his battle with Lyme disease.

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin: A Timeline of Their Relationship
After facing plenty of ups and downs in their relationship, the heartthrob finally sealed the deal with Hailey Bieber (née Baldwin), and the pair have been going strong ever since.
The couple tied the knot in September 2018 at a New York City courthouse and held a second, more traditional ceremony with friends and family in South Carolina a year later. Two years before tying the knot privately, the “One Less Lonely Girl” crooner predicted that he might have found The One.
“What if Hailey ends up being the girl I’m gonna marry, right? If I rush into anything, if I damage her, then it’s always gonna be damaged,” he told GQ in the magazine’s March 2016 cover story. “It’s really hard to fix wounds like that. It’s so hard. … I just don’t want to hurt her.”
The pair separated as Justin rekindled his on-off relationship with Selena Gomez in late 2017, but they found their way back to each other in June 2018 during a cozy vacation in Miami. One month later, the pop star confirmed that he and the model were engaged.
“Was gonna wait a while to say anything but word travels fast, listen plain and simple Hailey I am soooo in love with everything about you!” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “So committed to spending my life getting to know every single part of you loving you patiently and kindLY. I promise to lead our family with honor and integrity letting Jesus through his Holy Spirit guide us in everything we do and every decision we make. My heart is COMPLETELY and FULLY YOURS and I will ALWAYS put you first! You are the love of my life Hailey Baldwin and I wouldn’t want to spend it with anybody else.”
One month before their courthouse wedding, an insider told MARKMEETS that Hailey was a positive influence in the Grammy winner’s life.
“Hailey has calmed Justin down a lot, and she has changed him as a man. He thinks she is his forever and considers her his best friend and soulmate,” the source said in August 2018. “Justin is over his crazy phase, and is more approachable and has been talking to lots of fans when he’s out. He’s happy to show the world that Hailey is his girl and he feels at ease with her.”
2009
The couple may not have sparked a flame until 2015, but they were introduced way back in 2009 — by the model’s father, actor Stephen Baldwin. Following news of their relationship, a Vine video resurfaced that showed the two meeting for the first time. With a hair flip and handshake, Baldwin made her mark on Bieber’s heart.
December 2015
Though Bieber was rumored to be hooking up with Kourtney Kardashian at the time, the “Love Yourself” singer didn’t bat an eye when it came to showcasing his PDA with Baldwin in an Instagram picture as they celebrated New Year’s Eve in 2015.
March 2016
In a March 2016 cover story for GQ, the Canadian native reflected on his newfound love with Baldwin, and how he wasn’t looking to jump the gun by taking the next step too soon. “What if Hailey ends up being the girl I’m gonna marry, right? If I rush into anything, if I damage her, then it’s always gonna be damaged,” he said at the time. “It’s really hard to fix wounds like that. It’s so hard. … I just don’t want to hurt her.”
December 2017
Bieber’s high-profile relationship with Selena Gomez didn’t stop the singer from checking in with Baldwin. While Bieber and Gomez were giving their relationship a second shot and Baldwin was linked to Shawn Mendes, a source told Us Weekly in December 2017 that the two exchanged texts.“They’ve both moved on,” the insider told Us. “The messages were platonic, and friendly.”
June 2018
Days before MarkMeets.com confirmed that the two were officially hooking up again, Bieber and Baldwin were spotted getting cozy and holding hands together at the W South Beach Hotel in Miami.
June 2018
The pair wasted no time planning epic outings following news of their rekindled romance. During one date in late June, Baldwin and Bieber enjoyed a relaxing spa date followed by dinner at New York City’s Cipriani restaurant. Following dinner they headed for a drink at The Bowery Hotel and as they were leaving the two “were very touchy-feely and were hugging,” an onlooker told Us at the time.
July 2018
Five days before Bieber popped the question, the couple encountered a slight road bump while in the Hamptons. they were cruising through Montauk, New York, when the singer’s Mercedes broke down, but they were able to shake it off. “The two ended up smiling and laughing about it after knowing they were safe … They looked happy and together. The car was eventually towed,” an eyewitness told Us of the incident.
July 2018
Bieber confirmed that the duo are engaged two days after he proposed. “Was gonna wait a while to say anything but word travels fast, listen plain and simple Hailey I am soooo in love with everything about you!” he wrote on July 9, 2018, alongside two black-and-white Instagram photos of the couple. “So committed to spending my life getting to know every single part of you loving you patiently and kindLY. I promise to lead our family with honor and integrity letting Jesus through his Holy Spirit guide us in everything we do and every decision we make. My heart is COMPLETELY and FULLY YOURS and I will ALWAYS put you first! You are the love of my life Hailey Baldwin and I wouldn’t want to spend it with anybody else. You make me so much better and we compliment eachother so well!! Can’t wait for the best season of life yet!. It’s funny because now with you everything seems to make sense! The thing I am most excited for is that my little brother and sister get to see another healthy stable marriage and look for the same!!! Gods timing really is literally perfect, we got engaged on the seventh day of the seventh month, the number seven is the number of spiritual perfection, it’s true GOOGLE IT! Isn’t that nuts? By the way I didn’t plan that, anyways My goodness does feel good to have our future secured! WERE GONNA BE BETTER AT 70 BABY HERE WE GO! “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains FAVOR from the Lord!” This is the year of favor!!!!”
March 2019
Bieber shared a candid Instagram post about bettering himself for his wife and their future children. “I have been looking, seeking, trial and error as most of us do, I am now very focused on repairing some of the deep rooted issues that I have as most of us have, so that I don’t fall apart, so that I can sustain my marriage and be the father I want to be,” Bieber explained of why he won’t be going on tour anytime soon. “Music is very important to me but Nothing comes before my family and my health.” An insider told Us in January that “Hailey can’t wait to be a mom” and the two “are excited about the next chapter of their lives together.”
January 2020
Though he had a feeling he wouldn’t be turned down, Justin was still “extremely nervous” to propose to Hailey before they tied the knot. “I was more nervous about, ‘Am I able to make this commitment as a man and be able to honor what I say?'” he said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in January 2020. “Because that’s a serious commitment, when you say you’re gonna love someone for better or for worse and be faithful.”
December 2020
The lovebirds made headlines in December 2020 when Justin dropped a NSFW comment about Hailey via Instagram after she wrote that her jaw was “on the floor” watching him rehearse for his New Year’s Eve concert. He responded, “Ur jaw is other places too lets be honest.”
November 2021
Hailey opened up about why she hesitates to dole out relationship advice, telling The Ellen DeGeneres Show guest host Yvonne Orji that she’s no “expert” when it comes to maintaining a healthy marriage.
“I’m newly married. I got married quickly. I’m still taking it a day at a time and I’m still learning a lot,” Hailey explained. “Having the time to be on your own and having the experience to be single and just, like, travel and having had that time I think was the most important thing. That was the biggest thing for me was that I had my own life experience before I joined my whole entire life with somebody and had my own identity and comfortable in my own skin.”
Earlier that month, the model said on the “In Good Faith with Chelsea & Judah Smith” podcast that Justin’s struggle with sobriety was hard on her as a partner. “I know for a fact that I’ve loved this person for a very long time and now would not be the time to give up on him. I just wouldn’t do that to him,” she said at the time.
