20 Photos That Change The Way We See Justin Bieber | TheThings – TheThings

Born in 1994, Justin Bieber has always loved music. As a young child, he learned to play guitar, piano, drums...and even the trumpet. He was raised by his single mother, who worked as many jobs as she could to support her family.

When Bieber was 12 years old, he sang Ne-Yos So Sick in a local singing competition. While he placed second, he got a whole lot more when the video was uploaded to YouTube, because it was seen by his future manager, Scooter Braun.

Justin became the first artist to have seven songs from a debut record chart on the Billboard Hot 100. To this day, he is one of the best-selling musical artists in the world! But Justin isnt that little boy anymore.

Here are 20 photos that change the way we see Justin Bieber.

Justin Bieber was discovered when he was only 13 years old. Scooter Braun saw a video on YouTube of Justin singing...and brought Usher along to check out the Canadian native. It wasnt long after that we started seeing Justin Bieber pop up everywhere. Justin was young and sweet and still unaffected by fame.

Justin was charming in all his interviews and was courteous to everyone, including his fans. He seemed like a great role model and parents didnt mind letting their daughters idolize the young star. His early songs were also appropriate for younger audiences, yet catchy enough for the older crowd. Justin Bieber was a hit around the world.

Unfortunately, Justin didnt remain unaffected by fame and fortune for long. His attitude began to change and he started to get into trouble. One of these incidents was a fight with a member of the paparazzi.

Justin and his buddies also got caught with illegal substances on his private jet, on the way to the Super Bowl, although charges were eventually dropped.

One incident that really started to change the way that people looked at the sweet pop star was when Justin was caught drag racing. The officer said that he immediately smelled alcohol on the underage pop star's breath. When the officer attempted to arrest him, Bieber cussed and tried to resist.

Justin started to get tattoos as early as his sixteenth birthday. While tattoos can be a great expression of art and self, they can also be a little concerning, especially when a seemingly wholesome pop star starts getting them at such a young age.

Justin upper body is almost entirely covered in tattoos now, and he doesnt show any sign of slowing down.

Justins Calabasas neighbors might know more about his trouble-making than anyone else. They finally filed charges against Justin after he trespassed on their property and egged their house. They also claimed that Justin had spit in their faces.

Justin eventually settled, but he had to take anger management classes, do community service, and pay them $80,000.

Those close to him were concerned about his antics. They were scared they were going to lose him.

His managerScooter Braun said:"I thought he was going to die. I thought he was going to sleep one night and that he would have so much crap in his system that he would not wake up the next morning."

Scooter Braun and the rest of the team decided to pull Justin out of the limelight. Scooter admits that Justin wasnt happy about the decision, saying, "He used to yell and scream at me, and he wanted to put music out, he wanted to tour.

Justin eventually realized it was for the best and started to turn himself around.

After Justin realized how far off the path he had gone, he took time off to reflect and wrote his super honest and authentic album, Journals. It was the album that broke him out of the cute teen pop star mold. It let others see the toll that Hollywood and fame had taken on him.

Justin came out on the other side and realized how lucky he was that he didnt completely lose himself. He told Billboard Magazine, I started going through the motions. I felt like people were judging me all the time. I came out alive. I came out swinging. But I was close to letting [fame] completely destroy me.

Justin told fans that he wasnt the one who turned it all around; instead, he gave the credit to Jesus. He started uploading videos of himself singing Christian songs and going to church.

Justin wrote a heartfelt message on Instagram and ended it with, Be kind today, be bold today and love people today, not by your standards but by Gods perfect unfailing love.

In 2015, Justin came out of his rough patch a stronger person. He re-launched the Bieber brand to more closely align with who he is now. He wasnt a teenager anymore and it was time to show the world that he had made changes. He wanted to put his childish behavior behind him.

The next album Justin released was his 'Purpose' album, showing fans that he had found his purpose. It was still honest and real, like his 'Journals' album, but also showcased his new sound to the world. It was a mix of pop, EDM, and R&B, and some people called it his best work ever.

What some people don't know is that, in the midst of his partying and getting in trouble with the law, he was also dealing with a serious breakup. Justin and Selena had an off-and-on relationship for many years, but it eventually became public knowledge that the two stars were no longer a couple.

On September 13, 2018, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin were seen entering a marriage license courthouse. Two days later, Justin announced on social media that the pair were in fact married.

Of course this came with drama, especially from those still shipping Justin and Selena. Despite everything, it seems the two are very happy!

I guess if youre going to let yourself go, you should wait until after youre married. At least that seems like Justins policy. Justin shed his cool hairstyle and polished, pulled-together outfits. You can now find Justin with shoulder-length hair and facial hair, wearing what looks like anything he could find when he woke up that morning.

Justin and Hailey are not afraid of PDA. They also love to gush about each other on their social media accounts. After their first Thanksgiving as a married couple Justin wrote on Instagram, Every day is a learning process, trying to be more like him, patient, kind, selfless, boy I got a long way! But God's grace is sufficient!

The happy couple recently got a new puppy together. In her Instagram Stories, Hailey shared all the difficulties that go along with having a puppy and a Christmas tree. Justin has also put his house on the market and Hailey has been seen looking at new houses, so it seems the pair are looking to settle down.

Justin posted a picture on Instagram of a side by side, with his mug shot next to a recent picture of him smiling. The caption said, I LOVE THIS because it reminds me IM NOT EXACTLY WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT THANK GOD IM NOT WHERE I USED TO BE!!

Whether you see him as a naive boy, a troublesome teen, or a changed young man, Justin has continually proven that he is going to be his own man, regardless of what others want him to be. Beliebers continued to stick with him through his musical changes and trying times. It looks like theyll continue to stand with him.
