Rich, good looking and famous. Too bad he had to go and screw it up by doing things like releasing a line of 'Bieber Nail Polish'. Like wtf? The kid is getting taken through the cleaners, and mark my words, WILL crash and burn. 'Tis a shame.

Usher's manager noticed him on youtube. The manager arranged a meeting between him and Usher. The kid was raised by a VERY young single mother in low income housing and she could barely pay the bills, and he taught himself how to play the guitar, piano and drums and some horns too. Yep, lots of luck but a lot of hard work and determination too for a kid especially. I don't get the hate. Maybe he'll crash and burn like most young pop stars, and if so, they'll be plenty of time to hate on him.
