Justin Bieber halts radio interview over mum jibe

Justin Bieber cut short a pre-taped interview with US radio show Mojo in the Morning on Thursday after the host compared him to Justin Timberlake and quizzed him about a potential romance between his mother and One Direction's Harry Styles. Thomas Carballo, the host of the show, was in the middle of a phone chat with the pop star when Bieber took offence at his line of questioning - and hung up. The 10-minute interview got off to a bad start when Carballo told his guest he thought he was Timberlake the first time he heard him. Bieber said, "That's funny because our voices sound nothing alike... Saying I sound like somebody else is definitely not a compliment." The singer lightened up when talking about his new song Maria, which was inspired by the woman who falsely claimed Bieber was the father of her baby last year, but he lost his cool when cheeky Carballo got personal and asked if he was worried about his One Direction pal Harry Styles falling for his mum. The DJ s

(Ernest Doroszuk/QMI AGENCY) STRATFORD, ONT. - Justin Bieber can add an Ontario high school diploma to his long list of achievements. The international pop superstar is in the 2012 graduating class of St. Michael Catholic Secondary School in Stratford, Ont., his hometown. The high school held its commencement ceremony on Thursday night, but Bieber wasn't there to collect his diploma in person. There was no repeat of his surprise appearance in Stratford earlier this month when he sang his hit "Baby" on the steps of the Avon Theatre, where he once made $150-$200 a night busking. "I guess if it happened quietly it's because Justin chose to keep aspects of his education quiet," said Dan Parr, a superintendent with the Huron Perth Catholic District School Board. Parr said out of respect for Bieber's privacy, as with any o

Things get really tense and he hangs up the phone listen to the interview! Justin Bieber did a very strained interview with Detroits 106.7 show, Mojo in the Morning today and he ended up hanging up the phone on Mojo! Everything went down after questions involving One Direction and Harry Styles . The interview with Justin started out friendly and sweet with the DJ complimenting Justin on his charity work and his new Believe album but things got a bit awkward when Mojo tried to give Justin praise on the song Boyfriend by saying I thought it was Justin Timberlake. Mojo adds, I hope you take this as a compliment, I really mean it as that. But the Biebs was not pleased. Man thats crazy cause our voices sound nothing alike. I mean, saying I sound like someone else is not really a compliment. Th

And The Winner Of Our Epic Justin Bieber Vs. Justin Timberlake Battle Of The Justins Is...

In the battle of the Justins, Justin Bieber reigns supreme! We asked you guys to make the toughest decision of your life and vote for either Justin Bieber or Justin Timberlake in the epic battle of Justin vs. Justin. We here at MTV Buzzworthy and MTV News thoughtit'd be fun to reexamine the trajectory of both Justins and see how they stacked up against each other.And, despite our reminder of how stunning Timberlake's pecs looked in THIS VIDEO , Justin Bieber has emerged the victor. A verdict we're totally okay with, obviously . So, congratulations! Maybe Justin Bieber's win had something to do with the fact that he just released his #1 album , Believe ( which contains this amazing song and this am! azing so ng and this amazing song ). Whereas Justin Timberlake has merely teased us with tiny vocal snippets that are under a minute , and that's not fair. We're not saying that's why Justin Bieber won... only that that's not fair. So, the official tor

Kuk Harrell, Justin Biebers Vocal Producer

LOS ANGELES Two days before Justin Biebers 18th birthday he was, as usual, working. He walked into the main control room at Record Plant, a recording studio here, his blue-and-pink high-top Balenciaga sneakers unlaced, nodding his head to a sinuous beat blaring over the speakers. Chad Batka for The New York Times Kuk Harrell, a vocal producer, has a client roster that includes Justin Bieber, Jennifer Lopez and Rihanna. On this Tuesday night in February Mr. Bieber was a few weeks into the recording process for his second full-length album, Believe (RBMG/Island). The studio was crowded with songwriters trying to turn that beat into a hit; with Mr. Biebers relatives, in town for his birthday; with a security guard; with various assistants. Then there was Kuk Harrell, the only person not openly vying for Mr. Biebers attention, who moved through the scrum quietly, every so often checking settings on a computer. Mr. Harrell is Mr. Biebers vocal producer, a many-layered and amorphous job: pa

Star Spotting: Justin Bieber Is Doing One Of Three Things

Justin Bieber pledges his allegiance, hopefully to me. Aside from gawking at THAT GINORMOUS PINKY RING on Justin Bieber' s pinky, we've been trying to guess what he's actually doing in this picture, snapped after his visit to 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno." A few guesses include: 1.) Practicing the Pledge Of Allegiance to prep for the fourth of July. Justin Bieber's Canadian, as you know, but it's always good to embrace other cultures 2.) He's overwhelmed by the AH-MAZING success of his #1 album, Believe ! Or.. 3.) He has heartburn. In "reality" (whatever that means) Justin was singing to fans and had himself a "moment." But the more we really stare at this pic, the more it looks like Justin's trying to sneak in a quick cat nap. In between promoting his new album, making his fan's dreams come true , preparing for a role in a forthcoming basketball movie , gearing up for his sold-out concert tour , and polishing that enormo

062812_FFN_JB_ftr Justin opened up on Bethenny how despite his talent and good looks hes far from perfect. Was he referring to his alleged violent altercation with the paparazzi? Read on for more details. Justin Bieber is just a normal 18-year-old or so he told Bethenny Frankel on her new talk show Bethenny . Im not perfect, Justin told Bethenny on June 27. You cant expect me to be perfect. I do make mistakes. It sounds like he was cryptically speaking about his May 27th alleged fight when he was inCalabasas, Calif., with girlfriend Selena Gomez and allegedly physically battered paparazzo Jose Sarros . While Jose had no visible injuries, he called 9-1-1 and filed a misdemeanor battery report! Was he asking for forgiveness from his Beliebers?Even though Justin admitted he makes mistakes, he told Bethenny he has a responsibility to set a good example. I have a responsibility to my fans to be a good role model, he said. We think its great that Justin acknowledged hes not perfect! Who

Five Justin Bieber-Style DIY 'Glamping' Camping Tips: Fan's View

Recently, it was reported by the Winnipeg Free Press that Justin Bieber was going 'glamping.' The star explained that, "You sleep on a bed. It's a mattress bed! In a huge tent with TV and everything. You have electricity and stuff but you're still in amongst the wildlife. It's pretty cool." Is there a luxury side of camping growing in America today? After all, the opening ten minutes of Sofia Coppola's " Marie Antoinette " gives us an idea that glamping may have been around for awhile. A browse online reveals that Bieber's glamping is a reality after all. For example, HotelChatter.com has a picture of the set up Bieber describes found at The Resort at Paws Up . At this Montana resort, you soon find that the term glamping is a registered trademark of this company and that they also offer a camping butler. In addition, MSN.com has several reviews of vacation destinations that have offered luxury camping packages for years. Despite this,

(Pacific Coast News) more pics As expected, Justin Bieber 's Believe owned the charts in its first week of release in a very big way: It hit number one in 30 countries. Still, the Biebs' numbers are paltry in comparison to what boybands 'N Sync and Backstreet Boys pulled in the early aughts, and were less than half Adele's biggest sales week this year. Also in music news, Katy Perry can't wait to let her real hair grow back, Adam Levine says he and Christina Aguilera have no beef, and Muse's "Survival" is the official song of the London Olympics.

Bieber album scores huge US debut

By Greg Cochrane Newsbeat music reporter Justin Bieber has scored the highest first week sales of any album in the US so far this year. The 18-year-old singer's LP Believe sold 374,000 copies in its first 7 days, according to Neilsen SoundScan. It's the Canadian's fourth number 1 album in the States following My World 2.0, Never Say Never: The Remixes and Under The Mistletoe. However it did fall short of midweek predictions which expected the album to sell between 410,000 and 440,000. His sales still topped Madonna whose album MDNA sold 359,000 copies in its first week on release earlier this year. It also marks a personal record for the singer - his previous chart best was with My World 2.0 which sold 291,000 in its first week in April 2010. But the biggest sales for an album in the US in 2012 is still Adele's 21, which sold 730,000 copies in the week following her victories at The Grammys in February. Justin Bieber is currently number 1 in the UK's official albu

Justin Bieber "Believe" scores year's biggest debut so far

By Piya Sinha-Roy | Reuters 34 mins ago LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Canadian pop star Justin Bieber notched the year's biggest debut so far as his latest album , "Believe," sold 374,000 copies in its first week, according to figures from Nielsen SoundScan on Tuesday. "Believe" will secure the 18-year-old singer his fourth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 when the chart is officially published on Wednesday. It follows 2009's "My World," and 2011's "Never Say Never: The Remixes," and his holiday set, "Under The Mistletoe." The new album knocked off last week's chart-topper, "Looking 4 Myself," by Bieber 's mentor Usher. "Believe" outsold Madonna's "MDNA," which debuted with 359,000 copies earlier this year. But it was unable to top the year's best sales week for an album, which went to Adele's "21," selling 730,000 copies in the week following her six Grammy Award wins

Justin Bieber Conducts An Entire Interview Wearing Tie-Dye On A Segway (PHOTO)

Image
Justin Bieber looks hot in tie-dye. This is a MIRACLE! We've aways been of the belief that even if Justin Bieber wore an outfit made up of used lobster shells ( Gaga , don't steal our idea!) we'd still be a Belieber. However, a tie-dye shirt? That's tough considering tie-dye may in fact be the most terrifying thing you could do to fabric that doesn't involve an Ed Hardy logo. Yet somehow, Justin Bieber managed to wear tie-dye and make it a bawse move when he visited Radio Disney early this week for a Take Over, during which he not only wore tie-dye, but he conducted an entire interview... on a Segway . So let's focus on the fact that he pulled that off without falling. Because if tie-dye becomes a thing, I may have to resort to... I don't know. Wearing lobster shells, probably.

Justin Bieber, Kanye West, And More Dudes Wear Warm-Weather Leather Pants

Image
Justin Bieber, Kanye West, Adam Lambert, and Darren Criss have all worn leather pants this month.Photo: Getty Images Leather pants + summer is a combination that doesn't often bring about the most pleasant of mental images. Actually, the only images they bring to mind (for the MTV Style staff, at least) make up a constant loop of that episode of Friends wherein Ross tries out a pair of leather pants , overheats, and winds up totally unable to put them back on. Either Justin Bieber , Kanye West , Adam Lambert , and Darren Criss missed that episode or they sincerely believe themselves immune to Ross's plight because all four of these dudes have sported thick, leather pants this month. Bieber goes for the double whammy, wearing not only leather pants, but also pairs it with a leather jacket. Either this guy doesn't have sweat glands, or Ryan Good rigged this outfit up with built-in air-conditioning because there doesn't seem to be a BEAD of sweat forming on Bieber's

Justin Bieber - Justin Bieber's Fishy Kiss

The 'Boyfriend' hitmaker - who is dating singer-and-actress Selena Gomez - admits snogging the deceased aquatic animal for a bet was the ''worst dare'' he's ever done in his life. He said: ''The worst dare I ever did was kissing a fish. It was dead. It was pretty gross.'' When he is not busy kissing deceased animals, the 18-year-old singer has found time to tone his muscles in an attempt to improve his physical and mental strength. He explained: ''I've started working out more and getting a bit heavier. I'm just staying fit and active, and want to be strong physically and mentally. It's good for touring. You've got to have agility.'' While he has been doing pull-ups and chin-ups, Justin admits he

Justin Bieber, Maroon 5 Top U.K. Charts

Justin Bieber landed his first U.K. No. 1 album Sunday (June 24) as "Believe" outsold Cheryl Cole's new release "A Million Lights" by some 3,000 units. Maroon 5 , meanwhile, topped the market's singles chart for the first time as "Payphone," featuring Wiz Khalifa , debuted in pole position. Bieber sold 38,000 copies of "Believe," according to the Official Charts Company , to outdo the No. 3 peak of 2010's "My World." The new set prevented Cole from having a third straight album chart-topper to follow her 2009 debut "3 Words" and the 2010 follow-up "Messy Little Raindrops." That opening release sold 125,000 units out of the box and the follow-up 105,000, but the new one only just under 35,000. "Call My Name," the first single from "A Million Lights," dropped a place from its No. 1 debut last week on 70,000 new sales. In a good week for British pop artist Paloma Faith, her "Fall T

Justin Bieber - Justin Bieber Edges Cheryl Cole In Race To No.1

'Apocalyptic Love' by former Guns N Roses guitarist Slash also looked in the running for a number one spot after pre-order sales reached 80 per cent more than Bieber. However, Slash came in at a modest number 12 with 16,864 sales. Bieber's previous highest spot in the UK album charts was number 3 with 'My World'; initially opening at number

The 18-year-old singer says he still listens to exactly what his mum and dad tell him but knows if he didn't want to do something he no longer has to obey them. He said: 'I am a man now. I've become more mature and a whole lot more grown up. I am an adult now, and that gives me more freedom. I don't have to listen to what my parents tell me anymore. 'But I still obey my parents. But I don't have to. I could shock them, too. If I really wanted to do something that they would not agree with, then I could do that now. Somehow that's reassuring.'

But at the same, I've written the song for them to react emotionally. Do I sometimes fear the fa
