Baby singer Justin Bieber was so beaming with enthusiasm that he made a major faux paus at his concert.The abscbnnews.com says the singer made a major blunder when he greeted Malaysian fans saying “Hello, Manila!” during a concert in Kuala Lumpur instead of “Hello Malaysia”.
A anonymous blogger wrote that “Justin Bieber staged a very successful jampacked concert in Stadium Merdeka Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia last night April 21… But one funny ‘boo-boo’ happened when he showed up on stage and greeted his Malaysian fans ‘Hello Manila!’
Altogether there was no additional information as to how the Malaysian crowd reacted, the alleged gaffe drew much attention from fans, with some making their comments known via popular networking sites including twitter.
“Justin Bieber Shouts ” HELLO MANILA ” instead of Hello Malaysia .. haha Maybe he’s just so excited to come over here !! YAY,” tweeted @ClichaeyeLuvJB.
@karcellana posted, “Me: Justin Bieber said “Hello Manila” instead of ‘Hello Malaysia’ in his concert in Malaysia Ate: AWWW! *touches heart* I wanna watch!:))”
Then again there are those who were only too quick to make the incident another reason to make fun of the YouTube discovery, who is set to hold a concert in Manila on May 10.
“Justin Bieber greets Malaysians ‘Hello Manila!,’ wears a Barcelona jersey in Madrid. Justin Bieber, you need a map,” @abygo said.
This is not the first time Beiber made a boo-boo in public. Only last year the 16-year old pop star was ridiculed after a televised interview showed him looking seemingly perplexed.
Bieber defended himself on twitter saying that he could not understand the interviewer’s thick accent.
Then again Bieber had always been a frequent target of internet bloggers and message board posters notably for his appearance and his music.
Justin Bieber is constantly surprised by the dedication of his fans, after one loyal follower brought flowers from her native Spain to his recent concert in the Bahamas.
The Baby hitmaker has garnered a massive following since he found fame and is mobbed by devotees wherever he goes.
And Bieber is stunned by the gestures from some of his kind-hearted fans.
He tells ETOnline.com, “This girl came all the way from Spain to come to my concert and she saved these beautiful flowers from Spain (for me) – she sent them up to my room! If you’re out there watching, thank you so much for the flowers, they’re awesome.”
Justin Bieber may be one of the hottest pop stars today, but that doesn’t mean Justin Bieber ’s got everyone under his “Bieber Fever” spell. However, with the launch of Justin Bieber new movie, “Never Say Never,” hitting theaters next month, he’s trying to rally the few unbeliebers together who may not totally be caught up with the teen star.
Justin Bieber took to his Twitter account to remind his fans exactly what the movie is about. Justin Bieber wrote, “like @jonmchu says u dont need to be a fan to see this movie…u just gotta want to watch a great movie about chasing an impossible dream.”
Justin Bieber has always been the one to inspire Justin Bieber fans to chase their own dreams, and we can’t help but think this movie might be another avenue for him to express that message.
Tickets to the country’s first-ever Justin Bieber concert went on sale Thursday evening – but remained available for only a few minutes before leaan.co.il, the ticketing website for the Tel Aviv show, crashed due to overwhelming traffic.
Bieber, the Canadian pop singer with a tween fan base more rabid than Old Yeller, announced the concert at the start of December part of his My World Tour.
Israel’s preteens were obviously well-prepared for the moment tickets went on sale, flooding the ticketing site. Israeli news site Mako reported that leann.co.il is equipped to handle just 300 ticket purchases at one time, and couldn’t keep pace with the demand. (The only other shows currently being ticketed via the site are for stagings of “Aida” by the Israel Opera.)
Despite the technical difficulties, Israel’s Bieber fans persevered, purchasing 4,500 tickets within two hours of the start of sales. An audience of 50,000 Israeli tweens and parents is expected to attend the concert, set for April 14 at Tel Aviv’s Yarkon Park.
Justin Bieber and Willow Smith will be teaming up in 2011 to please the fans. According to news, this collaboration is for the younger generations who appreciate the two talented artists and will be paying good cash to see them.
If you haven’t heard this news, don’t feel bad we hadn’t heard either. We have some extra Christmas cash around here somewhere so once those tour dates are announced, you can bet we will be stopping the world to get a ticket for a concert on the West Coast. It will be worth paying for as Smith and Bieber love their fans and their ticket prices aren’t off the charts either.
The upcoming concert definitely has little competition in 2011. The two are powerhouses all by themselves, but put them together in a concert and not an empty seat in the house will remain. Besides Lady Gaga, there hasn’t been much announced in the way of summer concerts yet. It’s too early for that, but those looking to bring in fans should start announcing soon or this duo is going to run away with the best grossing concert figures of the year.
“I’m crazy, I’m nuts,” Justin Bieber tells Vanity Fair contributing editor Lisa Robinson. “Just the way my brain works. I’m not normal. I think differently—my mind is always racing. I’m just … nuts. But I think the best [musicians] probably are.” Robinson reports that Bieber considers the “best” to be the Beatles, Michael Jackson, and Tupac. “Music is music, and I’m definitely influenced by Michael Jackson and Boyz II Men and people who were black artists—that’s what I like. But I like their voices and I like how they entertain—it’s not about what color they are.”
“Michael [Jackson] was able to reach audiences from young to old; he never limited himself,” Bieber says of the King of Pop, of whom he has a sticker on his bedroom mirror in his tour bus. “He was so broad, everybody loved him, and that’s what my goal is—to basically make people happy, to inspire them, and to have everyone root for me.”
“It’s hard to really balance myself. A regular kid, if he catches the flu, he just gets to go home,” Bieber says of the challenges of trying to be a regular teenager. “But I can’t do that…. Everything is important. But, you know, my sanity is important, too. Even if I’m angry, I’ll just put a smile on my face and fake it. I don’t often fake it—what’s me is me….I know I have to give up a lot of myself, or a lot of a private life.”
Robinson talks to one person who has the most access to Bieber’s “private life” these days, his bodyguard Kenny Hamilton. “I feel like I’ve become an expert at covert operations,” says Hamilton about “friends” (girls) who sneak in to visit Justin on the mandatory one to three days off a week that he gets to just “be a kid.”
Robinson reports that Bieber says he wants to go to the moon, to outer space, but only when it’s 100 percent safe—or maybe just 90 percent—and that he hated school, is tutored on the road, doesn’t read much, but has the best-seller Rich Dad Poor Dad on his tour bus because Will Smith told him to read it. Robinson also reports that he sometimes suffers from insomnia, “I just turn over all night and think. My mind races,” he says. “I think about all the things I didn’t have time to think about during the day—like family and God and things that should be more important but you don’t have time to think about, because you just get caught up [in everything else] during the day.”
Such as the legions of screaming girls. Bieber tells Robinson that he knows girls scream for him because he’s Justin Bieber, but he thinks they might also scream for him because he’s cute. “Not trying to be arrogant, but if I walked down the street and a girl saw me, she might take a look back because maybe I’m good-looking, right?”
Bieber admits to Robinson that he’s O.K. with having a predominantly female fan base. “For younger guys, it’s like [they think] they’re not cool if they come to my concert. That’ll [change], I think; it’ll happen, maybe when I’m 18. But meanwhile all their girlfriends are coming to watch me.” Bieber is also aware that despite his success not everyone will be his biggest fan. “Of course, I think that people are just waiting for that time when I make a mistake and they’re gonna jump on it….There’s gonna be haters,” Bieber tells Robinson. “I know I’m not going to make a life-changing bad decision, as some people have. I’ve seen it happen too many times. I could be my own worst enemy, but I don’t want to mess this up.”
Robinson talks to Bieber’s mom, Pattie Mallette, about her son’s start as an Internet sensation. “I put up a little video on YouTube [under the name “kidrauhl”] for Grandma and some relatives to see, and the next thing we knew, all these strangers were clicking onto it, probably because they recognized the song.” Then, Mallette recalls, “it was ‘Oh look, honey, you have a hundred views.’ Then ‘Oh wow, a thousand views.’… Next thing we knew, thousands and thousands of views. But it never once occurred to me that there would be a music career out of this.”
Mallette also tells Robinson that, after a personal encounter with God, she believes that she and Justin have been put on earth to bring light and inspiration to the world. But Mallette is wary of show business and its potential consequences: “We don’t have yes-men around him. I don’t want him being a diva.”
