Justin Bieber

Singer and songwriter

Born 1994

Justin Bieber is the Canadian singer and songwriter Justin Drew Bieber. Born in London, Ontario, he grew up in Stratford. Busking and family singing videos preceded Scooter Braun’s discovery and work with Usher. He learned drums first and guitar left-handed. The My World EP and My World 2.0 established his early recording career; Under the Mistletoe, Believe and Purpose carried him into different pop settings. Changes and Justice preceded the SWAG and SWAG II albums, whose label announcements identify his studio collaborators and production work. Collaborations span Skrillex and Diplo, Dan + Shay, Ed Sheeran, Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, The Kid LAROI and SZA. His screen work includes music videos, film cameos, animation voices and documentaries, plus co-directing Beauty and a Beat. Never Say Never and Believe were followed by Seasons, Next Chapter and Our World, with producing credits recorded separately. His 2026 Coachella headline performances became two distinct live albums with different guest lineups. He is married to Hailey Bieber, with whom he has son Jack Blues. Recent W answers give direct personal preferences, while older food, exercise, pets and skincare disclosures remain tied to their original dates.
