Justin‘s My World 2.0 returned to #1 on The Billboard 200, replacing Usher’s Raymond V Raymond, which debuted in the top spot last week, reports
Yahoo!
Justin is the youngest male solo artist ever to top the chart for two or more weeks. Ricky Nelson was 17 in 1958 when he topped the chart for two weeks with Ricky. Stevie Wonder’s Little Stevie Wonder/ The 12 Year Old Genius, released in 1963 when he was 13, managed just one week on top.
My World 2.0 has sold 676,000 copies in its first three weeks. It took Justin’s My World EP seven weeks to sell that many copies. My World 2.0 has sold more copies in three weeks than Jonas Brothers’ latest studio album, Lines, Vines And Trying Times, has sold in its entire run. Jonas Brothers’ album has sold 635,000 copies since its release in June. ‘Baby’ has sold 1,525,000 digital copies and ‘One Time’ has sold 1,815,000 copies in the past 40 weeks.
OCEAN UP
Justin Bieber has revealed that he is already struggling to sing some of his hits because his voice is breaking, according to reports.
The Canadian singer, 16, admitted that he is struggling with the changes of growing into a man, and even finds singing his hit Baby difficult.
Bieber added that his famous voice is changing all the time.
He said: “It cracks, like every teenage boy. Even some of the notes I hit on Baby I can’t hit anymore.
“We have to lower the key when I sing it live.”
But he said that he is trying not to panic, and insisted: “I’m dealing with it. I have the best voice coach in the country, Miss Jan Smith.”
Bieber – who “treated myself to a Range Rover” for his 16th birthday – has another major problem singing live: screaming girls.
He said: “The other day, I was playing in front of 75,000 people. My friends were there, and I asked them, ‘Did I do good?’
“They were like, ‘I have no idea – all we heard was screaming.'”
MUSIC ROOMS
Who is Justin Bieber? Well, it appears that anyone who doesn’t know the answer to that question is either a very naive dinosaur – or more politely – not a teenager or even younger kid.
The 16-year-old Canadian singer is appearing on Channel Seven’s Sunrise program on April 26, and the Neil Mitchell program is now searching for the biggest ‘most crazy’ Bieber fan so Channel Seven can fly the kid and one parent up to Sydney to meet him.
