Early life
Bieber was born on March 1, 1994, in London, Ontario, and was raised in Stratford, Ontario. Bieber's mother, Patricia Lynn "Pattie" Mallette, was 18 years old when she became pregnant with her son. Mallette, who worked a series of low-paying office jobs, raised Bieber as a single mother in low-income housing. Bieber has maintained contact with his father, Jeremy Jack Bieber, who married another woman and had two children. Bieber's paternal great-grandfather was a German immigrant to Canada. His mother's ancestry is French Canadian.
During his childhood, Bieber was interested in hockey, soccer, and chess; he often kept his musical aspirations to himself. As he grew up, Bieber taught himself to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet. In early 2007, when he was twelve, Bieber sang Ne-Yo's "So Sick" for a local singing competition in Stratford and placed second. Mallette posted a video of the performance on YouTube for their family and friends to see. She continued to upload videos of Bieber singing covers of various R&B songs, and Bieber's popularity on the site grew (from wikipedia)
Justin Bieber is the hot, hot singing sensation that's way ahead of his time - and peers. According to Justin Bieber, he doesn't have a girlfriend right now and is enjoying the perks of a single life of a sixteen year old guy. This is despite of the fact that millions of teenage girls in the US, Canada, and Australia would love to be Mrs. Bieber. Just last month, the heart-throb caused such a mob prior to his Australian concert that several girls went to the hospital. Most just hyperventilated - got way over excited, but one actually injured her foot in the stampede. Seems fans started pushing before the concert when a rumor went out that Justin Bieber had arrived early. Cops in Australia had to actually cancel the concert before it started because the scene was way out of control.
