About Justin Bieber:

Grammy-winning global superstar Justin Bieber has amassed more than 50 billion streams and more than 60 million album equivalents worldwide over the course of his career. Justin's Grammy-winning 2015 album PURPOSE sold over 21 million copies worldwide. As he looks ahead to the 2020 arrival of his 5th studio album, Bieber is once again ruling the airwaves and dominating the charts, as his recent collaboration with Ed Sheeran "I Don't Care" hit #1 in 26 countries worldwide, Billie Eilish's "Bad Guy" - pushed over the top by a Bieber remix - reached #1 in the US, and "10,000 Hours" with Dan + Shay became the highest charting debut for a country song in the history of the Billboard Hot 100. In 2017, the Justin-led global smash "Despacito Remix" broke streaming records and became the most-viewed video of all time. Justin made chart history with "Despacito" and the DJ Khaled-collaboration "I'm The One" as the first artist ever to tally new No. 1s on the Hot 100 in consecutive weeks, Bieber's fourth and fifth No. 1 singles. IN 2015, PURPOSE debuted at #1 in over 100 countries around the world, and garnered a Grammy nomination for Album Of The Year. PURPOSE shattered global streaming records and yielded three consecutive #1 singles in the US - "What Do You Mean," "Sorry," and "Love Yourself," which received a Grammy nomination for Record Of The Year. In late 2015, all three tracks landed at #1, #2 and #3 on the UK singles chart, surpassing a record previously held by the Beatles and making Justin the first artist ever to accomplish such a feat. In February 2016, Justin won his first Grammy: Best Dance Song for the PURPOSE track "Where Are You Now." Justin Bieber, whose career launched in 2009, with the RIAA 5x-platinum worldwide hit "One Time," is the first artist to reach over 10 billion views on VEVO. In 2014, he was ranked by Twitter as the #1 most tweeted about musical artist of the year. He has released five #1 albums to-date, and has starred in two films: Never Say Never (2011) and Believe (2013). In 2011, he was nominated for the Best New Artist Grammy. In 2013, Justin received the RIAA Diamond award in recognition of his 2010 single "Baby" (12x-platinum in the U.S. alone) as the best-selling digital single of all-time.
