Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber is my favorite singer. I love his music. Hemake me happy when I hear him singing. When I am reallydown and sad. I will hear one of Justin’s songs.

He is also cute. I like the way he sings and when I first heardhim sing ‘Baby’ and saw him do the video of the song andthat’s how I started liking him. He can also play any kind ofinstruments that I like, for example: guitar, and piano. Ibecame a belieber since I listen to his music from the firsttime.

His music gave me a awesome feeling, like he was there for meto comfort and help me. The most important thing is thatJustin taught me to never say never. He teach me that dreamsdo come true, if you really want it. He made me smile, I cantalk hours about what I love about Justin, his hair, his voice,his dougie, his eyes, his humour… but this is what I tell peoplefirst. This is the reason why I really love him.
