Justin Bieber: Tween’s latest phenom

Mar 03, 2010- Permalink

For weeks now, teenybopper singing sensation Justin Bieber has been a trending topic on Twitter, which means that he’s one of the most talked about people on the micro-blogging site.

He, or his people, obviously know how to tap into social media. In fact, he was signed by R&B singer Usher after posting videos of him singing on YouTube.

So this 16-year-old, who just opened the new version of We Are The World for Haitian relief is huge. But I’ve hardly been exposed to his music. I think I saw a few seconds of one of his videos when I was passing by MuchMusic. Even that was a fluke, because when the hell does Much even play music these days? (Don’t get me started…)

I’d love to hear from the Justin Bieber fans out there. Where do you hear his music? How has he become so popular when he seems to be flying under a lot of people’s radars? Please drop me a comment below.
