The Best of Justin Bieber

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."

London, April 5 – Teen sensation Justin Bieber was quick to react when his mother’s hair caught fire recently.

‘[S]ick 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 (sic),’ wrote Bieber.

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."

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."
