Bieber fascinated by the English

Justin Bieber wants lessons to perfect his English accent.

The Canadian singer recently did a convincing imitation of a British person throughout an interview in the UK, and is now thinking of getting professional advice on how to talk like an Englishman.

"I adore the accent, it's awesome. I'm thinking about having lessons to help me speak like you guys," he told the Daily Star newspaper.

"I would love to be a real English gentleman."

The 18-year-old star is also thought to be a fan of English tea.

Bieber said this week he would like to branch his skills out and appear in an action movie.

"By this time next year I'd like to win a Grammy; maybe that will happen and I'd like to do some movies, stuff like that," the Boyfriend hitmaker said.

"I actually want to do some comedy movies, as well as some action, some stuff that is going to be challenging."

Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun, said he was proud of the star because he had grown up fast and in the full glare of the public eye.

"No one in the history of the world has ever grown up with the pressure that he has, being a solo artist that young, that famous, in a world with technology that exposes us 24/7," Braun said.

"He was literally going through puberty in front of the entire world.

"He's a fighter. I'm proud of him - how's he's stayed true to himself and taken control of the entire situation."
