opinion story

Pop star Justin Bieber has made mistakes, we can all agree on that. He has publicly humiliated himself in the past but has now gotten his act up.

everyone has different opinions on this young adult and i can see why, from egging houses and speeding and getting tickets for it, to publicly peeing and photographing it, but what people don't realize is he is actually a good influence.

Many stars have spun out on control, I'm not saying his behaviors are acceptable but he has gotten his act up and is now a mature adult who does well for the world. Making mistakes  are forgivable because everyone makes mistakes, what matters is that you change the way you are.

in my opinion, as a Bieber fan for years i believe he is a good guy. he makes great music and gives back to the world. He is apart of the make a wish foundation and he has changed his act for the better
 
Justin Bieber supports 24 charities, especially pencils of promise, every ticket bought for his concert gives money to the foundation founded by his manager scooter and his wife. Bieber also is known for supporting the make a wish foundation, he flies out, or flies to his fans and spends the day with them and makes them feel special.

This year as well, bieber surprised a fan and payed her entire quince for her when her family couldn't afford it, in my eyes, A celebrity that shares their money to the less fortunate is something special, because they are giving back.

Another reason why my opinion on bieber is great is because of his music, the beat and melody is one of a kind, its surprising to me how amazing his voice is live in concert.

Justin bieber is down to earth, he grew up on the more poor side with his mom patty, who was a single mom and his grandparents. I believe the reason why Justin is so humble and thankful for everything is because of the way he grew up, raw talent got him to where he is.

being grateful is a huge part of life, some of us don't realize how fortunate we are, and I'm glad that Bieber realizes the life he came from and stays humble.
