Justin Bieber has come a long way since posting YouTube covers in 2008. He’s got millions of followers, multiple Grammy nominations and one of the most popular nail polish colors on the planet. But his success hasn’t been without its challenges. He has battled mental health issues, struggled with substance abuse and is currently trying to put his marriage back together after some rough patches. But, through it all, he hasn’t given up on his dreams. Instead, he’s been working to re-establish his image one positive step at a time.
He’s been able to do that by staying true to his roots and continuing to make music, but also by learning from his mistakes and changing the way he lives his life. He’s now a grown man with a wife, children and a new album on the horizon. But, the biggest change has been how he handles his fame. He’s shifted his focus away from being a pop star and has focused on being a role model for kids. In an age when all the kids see on television is spoiled kids glitz and glamour, he’s been a refreshing reminder that you can be successful with hard work, determination and a good heart.
His first real album, My World, was released in 2010 and topped the charts both in the US and Canada. He followed it up with a remix album, Never Say Never – The Remixes, in 2011. Bieber’s fourth album, Believe, was released in 2012 and reached number two on the Billboard 200. It was also his first record to sell more than a million copies in the US. It was followed by a massive tour, and Bieber continued to expand his reach with shows in Asia, Europe, South America and Australia.
Bieber has collaborated with a range of artists from all genres, including Big Sean, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Halsey and Post Malone. His songs have also been featured in several hit movies and TV shows.
In his latest video, Sorry, Bieber shows off his physical skills. The song features a lot of stunts as he jumps over waterfalls, skateboards on a derelict plane and swims in icy water. The clip was filmed in Iceland.
Bieber is also a die-hard romantic. The video for the song starts off with a Romeo and Juliet-inspired set up, where Bieber is trying to get his love interest’s father to approve their relationship. It then switches to a smooth dance sequence with the Poreotics and Beat Freaks, two crews that have competed on different seasons of America’s Best Dance Crew. The choreography is slick and the dance sequences are a highlight of the video. The clip is a must-watch for any fan of the pop star.
