Origin[]

Justin Drew Bieber (born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian singer. He is recognized for his genre-melding musicianship and global influence in modern-day popular music. Bieber was discovered by American record executive Scooter Braun and signed with RBMG Records in 2008, gaining recognition with the release of his debut seven-track EP My World (2009) and soon establishing himself as a teen idol.

Bieber achieved commercial success with his teen pop-driven debut studio album My World 2.0 (2010), which debuted atop the US Billboard 200, making him the youngest solo male act to top the chart in 47 years. The album spawned the internationally successful single "Baby" (featuring Ludacris), which became one of the best selling singles of all time in the US. His second studio album, Under the Mistletoe (2011), became the first Christmas album by a male artist to debut at number one in the US. Bieber went on to become the first artist in history with five US number-one albums by the age of 18.

From 2013–14, Bieber was involved in multiple controversies and legal issues, which had a drastic impact on his public image. During this period, he abandoned his pet monkey in Germany, vomited onstage, was videoed while urinating in a bucket, cursed at a photograph of Bill Clinton, wore a gas mask in public, allegedly spat on fans (although this was later debunked), was involved in an explicit image with a stripper, and allegedly assaulted his bodyguard and a limo driver. Bieber had several run-ins with the law around the world before his first arrest in 2014, including when he was accused of reckless driving in his neighborhood in 2012, and charged in Brazil with vandalism in 2013.

Bieber is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated sales of over 150 million records worldwide. He has received numerous accolades, including two Grammy Awards, one Latin Grammy Award, eight Juno Awards, two Brit Awards, one Bambi Award, 26 Billboard Music Awards, 18 American Music Awards, 22 MTV Europe Music Awards (the most wins for any artist), 23 Teen Choice Awards (the most wins for a male individual), and 33 Guinness World Records.

Effects[]

Makes children and teenagers that play multiple songs on the guitar become idolized by the public, especially others in their age group. They become a sensation for their talents, accomplishments, or public image. Only slightly boosts their inherent skills but greatly increases how much potential fans would adore them. Works best on those with existing interest in similar figures, but not on those with weak disinterest.

Increases unpredictable and controversial behavior in response to the amount of popularity they gain. The acts that made them beloved will stay consistent and even improve more as they practice. But everything outside of their main draw of attention will stray into bizzare, illegal and questionable territory.
