Justin Bieber to Make Feature Film Debut!!
SUPERSTAR RECORDING ARTIST JUSTIN BIEBER TO MAKE FEATURE FILM DEBUT
HOLLYWOOD, CA –Paramount Pictures, MTV Films, Insurge Pictures and Island Def Jam Music Group have jointly announced that superstar-recording artist Justin Bieber has signed on to star in his first feature film. Producing alongside Bieber will be his manager Scooter Braun, Island Def Jam Music Group Chairman LA Reid, and Grammy winning singer Usher. The movie will be released in the U.S on Valentine’s weekend 2011.
For the first time ever, Justin Bieber will tell his story from start to finish. The currently untitled movie will give fans an exclusive, VIP backstage pass into the life of Justin Bieber, showing audiences why the multi-platinum recording artist is one of the biggest stars in the world. The movie will also feature special 3D footage from his biggest concert ever, as part of his current My World 2.0 tour. Not only will fans get an intimate look at Justin’s life, but they will also get to be a part of the film and commemorate this experience with him.
Discovered on YouTube in 2007 after posting dozens of his own videos to the site, the young artist quickly skyrocketed to fame. Signing with LA Reid at the Island Def Jam Music Group in 2008, his debut-hit single, "One Time," was released worldwide in 2009. He soon followed with his debut release, My World in November 2009, which was certified platinum in the United States, and made Bieber the first artist to have seven songs from a debut album chart on the Billboard Hot 100.
As a featured MTV Discover and Download artist, he also presented at the 2009 Video Music Awards, which helped introduce him to an even larger audience.
His first full studio release, My World 2.0 was released in March 2010 and has since achieved even greater success; debuting at number one and certified platinum in less than two months of release in the United States, making Justin the youngest solo male artist to have a number 1 album on the Billboard Top 100 since Stevie Wonder in 1963. His album remained number 1 on the charts for four-weeks. He has over 8 million fans on Facebook, and over 4 million followers on Twitter, and his current hit “Baby” is the most viewed YouTube video of all time, at just over 260 million views. He has sold over 5 million albums worldwide to date.
“When the idea for a movie first came to us, we knew immediately this was our chance to give something very special back to the all fans who have been a huge source of inspiration and support throughout my entire career thus far. They simply make my dreams come true everyday,” said Justin Bieber. “I cannot wait to share all the great experiences I’ve had over the last few years with them.”
Paramount Pictures will release the film under the newly created Insurge Pictures label, whose goal is to introduce film audiences to a new generation of web entertainment pioneers, whose unique and original content is helping to shape an exciting new approach to the movie going experience.
Along with the release of the film, Bieber will be forming his own production company. An Island Def Jam Music Group artist, Bieber is represented by manager Scooter Braun, Nick Styne at CAA, and Aaron Rosenberg and Sean Marks at Myman Greenspan Fineman Fox & Light LLP.

About Justin Bieber
Lahir di Strartford, Ontario 9 Maret 1994 dan dibesarkan seorang diri oleh ibunya, Pattie Malette, Justin memiliki bakat dan minat musik yang cukup tinggi. Dia menguasai terompet, piano, gitar, dan drum yang dipelajarinya sendiri sejak kecil. Pada usia 12 tahun, Justin mengikuti kontes menyanyi di kotanya, Stratford, dan memenangkan juara kedua. Sejak itu dia mulai mendokumentasikan penampilannya dan mengunggahnya di Youtube, untuk teman-teman yang tak sempat melihatnya tampil. Pada beberapa videonya, Justin menyanyikan lagu-lagu beberapa penyanyi ternama seperti Usher, Justin Timberlake, Neyo, Chris Brown, dan Stevie Wonder dengan versinya sendiri.
Beruntung, Scooter Braun, eksekutif marketing So So Def yang tanpa sengaja menyaksikan penampilannya di Youtube tertarik pada bakat musikalitasnya. Braun segera mengontak Bieber dan menerbangkannya ke Atlanta, Georgia untuk bertemu Usher.
Tak lama, Usher setuju mengorbitkannya melalui label rekaman Island Record pada Oktober 2008. Untuk memantapkan karir musiknya Bieber dan ibunya pindah ke Atlanta.
Album pertama Bieber yang dirilis pada bulan Juli 2009, MY WORLD, mendapat sambutan cukup meriah. Hit single pertamanya, ONE TIME, yang menampilkan Usher sebagai vocal guest menduduki peringkat 20 besar tangga lagu Kanada dan Amerika.
Single-single yang dirilis selanjutnya mendapat sambutan tak kalah meriah. ONE LESS LONELY GIRL, LOVE ME, dan FAVORITE GIRL, menduduki peringkat 40 besar Hot Bilboard. MY WORLD juga mendapat Platinum dan Golden di Amerika dan Kanada.
Untuk mempromosikan albumnya, Bieber melakukan serangkaian penampilan penting. Saat Natal 2009, Bieber tampil di Gedung Putih di hadapan Presiden Barrack Obama dan istrinya. Bieber juga tampil di MTV dan beberapa acara live lain seperti Saturday Night Live dan Kids Choice Awards.
Selain menyanyi, Bieber juga pernah menjadi presenter untuk Grammy Awards ke-52. Prestasinya dalam dunia musik membuatnya menjadi penyanyi pop solo termuda yang mampu merajai tangga lagu dunia.
Lirik Lagu : Justin Bieber - Stuck In The Moment
With you,
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place...
Now Romeo & Juliet,
They could never felt the way we felt,
Bonnie & Clyde,
Never had the highlight,
We do,
We do...
You and i both know it can't work,
It's all fun and games,
'til someone gets hurt,
And i don't,
I won't let that be you...
Now you don't wanna let go,
And i don't wanna let you know,
There might be something real between us two, who knew?
Now we don't wanna fall but,
We're tripping in our hearts and it's reckless and
clumsy,
'cause i know you can't love me here...
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
But everything we have is stuck in the moment,
And there's nothing my heart can do (Can Do),
To fight with time and space 'cause,
I'm still stuck in the moment with you...
See like Adam & Eve,
Tragedy was a destiny,
Like Sunny & Cher,
I don't care,
I got you baby...
See we both,
Fightin' every inch of our fiber,
'cause in a way,
It's gonna end right but,
We are both too foolish to stop...
Now you don't wanna let go,
And i don't wanna let you know,
There might be something real between us two, who knew?
And we don't wanna fall but,
We're tripping in our hearts and it's reckless and
clumsy,
And i know you can't love me here...
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
But everything we have is stuck in the moment,
And there's nothing my heart can do (Can Do),
To fight with time and space 'cause,
I'm still stuck in the moment with you...
See like,
Just because this cold cold world saying we can't be,
Baby, we both have the right to decide we,
And i ain't with it,
And i don't wanna be so old and grey,
And it isn't 'bout these better days,
But convince just telling us to let go,
So we'll never know...
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
'cause everything we did,
And everything we have is stuck in the moment,
Yeahhh...
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
But everything we have is stuck in the moment,
And there's nothing my heart can do,
(Nothing my heart can do),
To fight with time and space 'cause,
I'm still stuck in the moment with you,
Yeah,
Whoa whoa..
Lirik Lagu : Justin Bieber - Down To Earth
Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how
No one has a solid answer
But just walking in the dark
And you can see the look on my face It just tears me apart
So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt)
And we cry and cry and cry and cry
And we live (and we love) and we learn (and we love)
And we try and try and try and try
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle on our way back down to Earth
Down to Earth, Down to Earth
On our way back down to Earth
*Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth,
Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth*
And mommy you were always somewhere
Daddy I live out of town
So tell me how could I ever be normal somehow
You tell me this is for the best
So tell me why am I in tears?
*Woah* So far away, and now I just need you here
So we fight (we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt)
And we cry and cry and cry and cry
And we live (we live) and we love (we love)
And we try and try and try and try
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle on our way back down to Earth
Down to Earth, Down to Earth
On our way back down to Earth
*Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth,
Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth*
We fell so far away from the way we used to be
Now we're standing and where do we go
When there's no road to get to your heart
Let's start over again
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle on our way back down to Earth
Down to Earth, Down to Earth
On our way back down to Earth
Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth,
Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth, Back down to Earth,
I never thought it would be easy
Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how
