So at the moment Justin Bieber is both very popular and very unpopular at the same time. Girls go crazy for him, guys think he's gay.

He has the same characteristic as Marmite - You either love him or you hate him.


He started off his career as just regular boy making videos of himself on YouTube, then he became a worldwide Celebrity. Considering YouTube didn't start until September 2005, Justin Beiber went from being a regular boy to worldwide fame in just 10 years, maybe less.

Probably his most well know song "Baby" which he released back in 2010 is the most disliked video on YouTube!

In 2014 he got sent to jail for being a bad boy, boy racing with cars and such.

He currently has 4 songs in the Top 50 UK Charts, with 3 in the top 10!



So, do you like Justin Beiber, or just like his music?




Thanks to all in advance.

He doesn't really bother me unless he behaves really badly towards his fans.

I really hate myself but I love his new music out at the moment. He was on the Alan Carr chatty man the other month and seemed like a much nicer chap than he was. I hate myself even more but I must admit I love him

Same here pretty much. His music is shite and he's an annoying asshole, but I wouldn't kick him out of bed.

I think he's a complete prat and that everything he does is very calculating to get him back to number one. I do feel a tiny smudge of empathy for him though purely based on the fact that he got too famous too young, with parents who seem about as mature as he does, and was possibly never going to turn out any other way.

He is probably the most photographed person on the planet at the moment. His every waking move seems to be documented. If anything the videos seem to show him trying to get rid of the press to make time for his fans. He's gone up in my estimation seeing some of the stuff he has to deal with constantly. Plus I think Journals is a good album. Watch his carpool karaoke with James Corden .

I'm undecided. He acts like a moron at times which puts me off him but I do have a little soft spot for him. He needs to grow up but I can't help but think all of the pressure from such a young age changed him because he was a very sweet kid. It can't be easy having the amount of horrible comments aimed at you when you're just a 15 year old who wants to sing.

I like his music now as his sound is maturing, probably faster than his personality is.

I also think he got alot of unfair press when he kicked off at that photographer a few years ago.
I saw the video and the photographer said something like "F*ck off back to your own country", if that was said to someone from India, for example, the country would have stood up against the racism!

He's still an obnoxious bellend, but I'd be lying if I said that his new album sucked. There's a few belters on there, so credit where it's due.

He's visible to me mostly through his antics roadshow. I only heard one of his new songs when he was on Graham Norton, it was okay. But he behaves like a spoilt child and is a bit too old for it. I voted that I don't like him, a hate is an energy wasted on him.

He's ok. He doesn't bother me

I do think the singles from his current album are absolute crap though. The rest of what is on the album is much better produced and more credible.

I used to despise him and his music, however it does seem he's matured a bit lately and his last 4 hits (where are you now, what do you mean, sorry, love yourself) have actually been pretty decent IMO.

But I'm still not a belieber.

He's one of those people who is constantly in the media and talked about like he's the biggest star on the planet but I don't think I've ever heard one of his songs or, if I have, wouldn't know it if it bit me on the backside

I like his most RECENT music, apart from Love Yourself. I don't care for him as a person, and I think his older music is mostly sh1te.

I love all his recent music, he might not have written them personally but they are corking tunes!

Judging by the Poll it seems most people dont like him, i would have thought he would have a lot of fans on this forum...the mystery continues as to who is actually buying his records.

I've only just realised that I've never heard anything he's ever done.

I could easily look him up on YouTube... but I'm not going to.
