Hey there!

Do you remember when Justin Bieber dropped his Christmas album, “Under the Mistletoe,” in 2011? It was a huge success and even landed him on Santa’s Nice List. The album not only became his second studio album, but it also made him the first male artist to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart with a Christmas album. “Under the Mistletoe” went on to sell over 2 million units, earning Double Platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America. Talk about spreading holiday cheer!

Back in 2013, Justin Bieber took over Lady Gaga’s position as the most followed person on Twitter. However, Katy Perry’s follower count surpassed him later that year. Despite this setback, Bieber managed to regain his top spot as the most followed musician on the platform. But when it comes to overall followers, he trails behind former President Barack Obama, who currently holds the number one spot.

In the early 2010s, concert movies were all the rage, so it was only natural for Justin Bieber to get in on the action. His documentary,
Justin Bieber: Never Say Never,
was released in 2011 and shattered box office records with the highest opening weekend earnings of any documentary ever. The movie brought in a whopping $73 million in the United States alone, making it the most successful concert film of all time.

Island Records achieved a major milestone when Justin Bieber’s hit song “Baby” from his debut album My World 2.0 broke records in 2013. According to the RIAA, the single received 12x Platinum certification, making it the highest certified single of all time. This was made possible by taking into account streaming numbers, which was a novel inclusion at the time and helped the song surpass Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind 1997,” which had 11x Platinum certification. Although “Baby” was later dethroned by another Bieber song, we’ll get to that in a moment.

Vevo has reached a new milestone with the release of “What Do You Mean?” by Justin Bieber, the lead single from his fourth album, Purpose. The track’s debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2015 marked Bieber’s first number one hit and made him the youngest male artist to achieve this feat at just 21 years old. The song’s success is attributed to its catchy trop-house beat.

In 2015, Justin Bieber made a bold move by allowing himself to be roasted on Comedy Central after his first appearance as the host of Saturday Night Live was met with some difficulty. Surprisingly, he became the youngest celebrity ever to be roasted and it turned out to be a success in terms of ratings. It even ranked as the third-highest rated show, falling just under Jeff Foxworthy’s 2003 special and Charlie Sheen’s 2011 roast. Bieber definitely got the last laugh by being able to poke fun at himself and prove that he could take a joke.

The year 2017 saw Justin Bieber team up with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee to remix the popular song “Despacito”.

The song stayed atop the chart for 16 weeks, tying the record previously held by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men’s hit “One Sweet Day.” “Despacito” also received a diamond certification from RIAA, beating out “Baby” to become the most certified single in the US. Along with this, Bieber earned another distinction after “Despacito” and his collab with DJ Khaled, “I’m the One,” both reached No. 1 on the chart in consecutive weeks. This made him the first artist to achieve such a feat.

In 2019, Justin Bieber decided to venture into the world of fashion and created his own clothing brand, Drew House. Collaborating with his friend and former stylist Ryan Good and designer Gianpiero D’Alessandro, they created a collection consisting of t-shirts, hats, coats, and stickers all featuring a yellow smiley face logo or the word “drew.” This was a significant step for Bieber as he expanded his creative portfolio beyond the entertainment industry.

Meet the Biebers – Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin’s power couple. While Bieber has accomplished many things over the past decade, including numerous hit songs and sold-out tours, he would likely say that his greatest achievement is his relationship with Baldwin.

Although they broke up in 2016 and Bieber briefly reunited with Gomez, he and Baldwin got back together in May 2018 and were soon engaged. The couple tied the knot in a civil ceremony in September of that year, followed by a lavish wedding exactly one year later.
