Justin Bieber to star in own biopic

By Alexandra Heilbron on August 3, 2010 | 14 Comments


Justin Bieber, 16, is set to star in a biographical movie about himself. The movie, which doesn’t have a title yet, will be in 3D and will feature Bieber’s meteoric rise from being a kid who posted clips of himself singing at local venues in Stratford, Ontario, where he grew up, to being an international superstar — the first artist to have seven songs from his debut album land on the Billboard Hot 100. Although he’s never acted before, Justin will first be seen in a guest appearance on the hit television series CSI next month. Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth) will direct Bieber’s biopic, which is scheduled to be released on Valentine’s day 2011.

    I really don’t see the point of this move, or the book or Justin Bieber… I suppose he needs to build up a bank roll to support his future alcohol/ drug/ prostitute addiction.

    I bet there are a lot of 10 year old girls who are screaming because they’re so excited about this. They go nuts over this kid.

    Clearly this movie is being made to cash in on his superstardome (in the prepubescent/teeny world) just like they did with Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana.

    You’d think a biopic would be done later in life, but everyone knows that in these days, fame can drop someone faster than it raised them up. So they’re making the cash while he’s still in his prime.

    I work at a movie theatre and have already booked off his opening day, lol.

    If this movie makes as much money as Miley’s concert movie did (and it probably will, he has millions of fans), he and his handlers will be laughing all the way to the bank.

    F*** this kid seriosly. Hes 16 years old and hes making a bio pic featuring none other then himself. At 16 hes just barely past puberty let alone lived life that long. A biography is supposed to follow ones life from their younger years to older years. So what are they going to put in this…..he was on youtube, he got recognized by usher, teen protitots around the world love him, the end…His story could be summed up in 3 minutes. The only reason hes doing this biopic and a short feature in CSI is to transition from pop to acting when the music runs him dry and out.

    Yes, I agree, Thibz.. Bieber is going to reach puberty soon, and when she does, She won’t be able to sing anymore, so she’ll have to settle for acting.

    HAHAHAHA this is ridiculous first the kid thinks he knows what love is by writing 10 or more songs dedicated to just that and nothing else and now he thinks, at 16 years old that he is worthy of a movie… not just any movie but a biopic? I’m ashamed at the world that we live in. He’s shooting it from when he first posted the clips to being an international superstar.. what the span of 2 years or something? Or is he going to start the movie when he was born? What possible insight could this movie provide us when the kid hasn’t even become an adult yet. Also, Bieber 3D… f*#k….that will just be made for pedophiles and young girls because I’m not really sure who else would like to see Bieber jumping out of the screen at them.

    you’re hoping “he dies”???
    what a humourless, un-example-setting-parent-like and most vile thing to say…

  13. Thibz • August 13, 2010 @ 10:24 AM

    I wonder how many times he will say baby in the biopic or one more time baby just one more timeeeeeee one more time babbbby babbby OOOOOOO babbbby babbby bbbabbby OOOOOOOOOO one more time, your the only one… F*** IT, BABBYYYY BABBBY….who care’s about the rest of the lyrics, isnt the word baby all we need. Remember folks theres gonna be one less lonely girl…or baby OOOOOOOO:S haha

    It will be the greatest movie ever and will make twice as much money then Avatar did.
