A memoir? Of what?!? Save for a few who had extraordinary childhood experiences (ie Drew Barrymore) you just can’t say you’re 16 years old and you’ve really ‘lived’.
Should be a hit at the Scholastic book fair though.
My thoughts exactly. And yet, other teeny-bopper idols have published them before they were even of legal age in the US.
The only book that would be shorter then Bieber’s would be “The Wit and Wisdom of Sarah Palin”.
Although his “memoirs” will probably make up little more than a three-fold pamphlet, they need to milk this kid for all they can now. By the time he’s old enough to have some real substance for a memoir, he will be but a footnote in pop culture history. Today’s “stars” are, like most other things in this country, disposable.
Unless he’s writing about past lives – I don’t think this is going to be more than 5 pages and a lot of crayon drawings.
I’m a Justin Bieber fan…but there was a period of about 2 months where I couldn’t STOP hearing his story. It’s really quite simple: he put his videos on Youtube and became famous. JT and Usher got into a bidding war for him.
While it is a good story, I don’t think it warrants a book…yet. Unless the nitty gritty details are released. If there are any, that is…
What is he going to write, “The Diaper Years”, “The 14 letters in the Alphabet I haven’t memorized?” This type of junk has to stop.
I love all the colons in the title.
lol
I was thinking the same thing!
I feel bad enough clicking on this story, but seriously…a memoir? There’s a sucker born everyday I guess. As someone else said, this will be a bestseller with the Scholastic Book Fair.
The real story is the vapid publishing execs that sat around trying to find a way to make money and decided it was good to pay Bieber a good sum of money to tap into the buying habits of idiots who lap this stuff up. Sad.
At 16 what has he got to write about? He’s not even dry behind the ears. It must be a joke!
I feel bad for all the parents who are going to buy this piece of crap for their kids for the holidays!!
Have both his balls even dropped yet? If only Anne Frank had a better agent.
Wow, they’re calling it a memoir? Way to make it sound like it’s smart to read about his life to stardom and see rare photos with fans.
Didnt that come out already? I swear my son has been reading it. The movie came out too! Diary of a Wimpy Kid right?
Hahaha.
I think the Biebs is alright but a BOOK and a MEMIOR at that.. seriously.. I wish I could get my book published.
OMG…can we start a book club to read this book and discuss the existential problems it addresses? Look out, Tolstoy!
is this will be in oprah books club… LIL
