Justin Bieber

The famous pop singer Justin Bieber does not need any introduction. The pop star started his career
as a young boy who started posting his singing videos on YouTube for his friends and family. It
wasn’t until his videos started receiving likes and subscriptions and he racked up over 10,000,000
subs solely from word of mouth. His videos are extremely famous on Facebook, Inc. Common Stock
(NASDAQ: FB), Alphabet Inc Class A (NASDAQ: GOOGL)’s YouTube, Twitter Inc (NYSE: TWTR) and
Snap Inc (NYSE: SNAP). And that’s how he was offered his breakthrough by Scooter Braun, a record
executive.

His journey of success followed through as he started signing deals with R&B Star Usher. His first
album “My World” sold one million copies in the US alone. Hailed as the ‘prince of pop', he
surpassed Lady Gaga as the most followed person on Twitter Inc (NYSE: TWTR) in 2013.

He also won a Grammy Award in 2016 and has more than 50 million subscribers on YouTube. With
his song ‘peaches’ becoming his eighth number one project that peaked on top of the Billboard
chart, he became the first solo male artist to top simultaneously on the billboard hot 100 and 200
chart. His fame has managed to give him several lucrative business partnerships throughout the
years without household names like Proactive, Walmart, Nicole by OPI, Calvin Klein, Schmidt’s
naturals, and Adidas. Currently, his net worth is said to be more than $285 million.
