Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber is a Canadian pop singer who rose to fame as a teenager in the late 2000s after being discovered on YouTube.
His name often serves as cultural shorthand for teen idol phenomenon or the kind of artist that inspires intense devotion from young fans and equal disdain from others: My daughter's room is covered in Justin Bieber posters.
References to Bieber frequently invoke his early career controversies or his transition from boyish heartthrob to tattooed adult artist.
