$65.5 Million USD
Pop and R&B singer Justin Bieber has a net worth of $65.5 million. Born to a single mother in Ontario, Canada, Bieber began singing and playing music at an early age, being self-taught in piano, drums, trumpet and guitar. At age thirteen, Beiber started to post covers of artists such as Usher, Stevie Wonder and Justin Timberlake on video sharing website YouTube, mostly for the benefit of family members too distant to attend local performances. Bieber’s gained the attention of noted marketing executive Scooter Braun, who gave Beiber his break with an audition for Usher, who in turn had Bieber audition for Island Records with whom he signed. Bieber released a two part debut album, My World and My World 2.0. In less than two months after its initial release, My World reached the one million sold copies mark (U.S.A.) and was subsequently certified platinum by the RIAA. My World was the first debut album to have four singles (One Time, One Less Lonely Girl, Love Me, and Favorite Girl) on the Top 40 prior to the album’s release. My World 2.0 debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 with a total of 698,000 copies sold in the first three weeks of its release. Baby, a single featuring rapper Ludacris from My World 2.0, became Bieber’s top charting single to date. Additionally, Bieber has made many notable appearances, including television talk show The View, Saturday Night Live and the White House for Christmas in Washington.
