- Justin Bieber 'Still Needs Guidance,' Manager Says
Scooter Braun opens up about the star's maturing process with Billboard.
By Jocelyn Vena<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/bieber_justin/artist.jhtml">Justin Bieber</a> is definitely making a more mature musical statement on his June 19 release, <a href="/news/articles/1686793/justin-bieber-believe-album.jhtml"><i>Believe</i></a>. However, his manager notes that just because the 18-year-old sounds older, doesn't mean that the baby bird is ready to leave the nest just yet.</P><P>"Adult artist? Just because he's legal now doesn't mean he's an adult," his manager, Scooter Braun, told <a href="http://www.billboard.com/features/justin-bieber-the-billboard-cover-story-1007286752.story#/features/justin-bieber-the-billboard-cover-story-1007286752.story" target="_blank"><i>Billboard</i></a> about the growing pop star. "He still needs guidance; he's still finding his way. He's no longer a boy, but he's definitely not yet a man."</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Usher Continues To Mentor Justin Bieber" id="vid:765694.id:1684329" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>During the interview, Braun also notes that Bieber has more pressure on him than pop stars before as he has come up in the digital age. He added that he's essentially a one-man boy band who can't rely on the support of other group members.</P><P>"No one in the history of the world has ever grown up with the pressure that he has, being a solo artist that young, that famous, in a world with technology that exposes us 24/7," Braun adds. "He was literally going through puberty in front of the entire world, with everyone expecting something from him and a lot people waiting for him to screw up. He's a fighter. I'm proud of him — how's he's stayed true to himself and taken control of the entire situation."</P><P>The singer himself recently opened up about his public image and how he always feels guarded in interviews. "I mean, I keep my guard up a lot, because you know, you can't trust anyone in this business," Bieber told the June issue of <a href="/news/articles/1685223/justin-bieber-gq-june-2012-issue.jhtml"><i>GQ.</i></a> "That's what's sad. You can't trust anybody. I learned the hard way."</P><P>And given his busy promotional schedule, Bieber will have a lot more interviews to give in the coming weeks. He is traveling the globe promoting the release. He's already made stops in <a href="/news/articles/1686156/justin-bieber-norway-chaos.jhtml">Oslo, Norway</a>, <a href="/news/articles/1686227/justin-bieber-paris-concussion.jhtml">Paris</a> and <a href="/news/articles/1687143/justin-bieber-mexico-city-free-concert.jhtml">Mexico City</a>, among others, and this week touches down in New York City where he will appear on <a href="/news/articles/1687353/justin-bieber-the-wanted-today-show-concert.jhtml">the "Today" show. </a></p>

'He's the only person I'd sleep on the ground for,' one Belieber tells MTV News two days before 'Today' show concert.
By Uptin Saiidi<P><b>NEW YORK</b> — A little rain couldn't stop die-hard Beliebers and fans of the Wanted fans from camping out to snag front-row spots for their fave acts.</P><P>On Wednesday afternoon (June 13), approximately 50 <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/bieber_justin/artist.jhtml">Justin Bieber</a> admirers staked out territory outside Rockefeller Center, gearing up for Bieber's 'Today' show performance — two days from now, on Friday morning.</P><P>Meanwhile, several blocks away, a handful of fans also laid out their sleeping bags outside the Best Buy Theater in anticipation of <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/wanted_2_/artist.jhtml">the Wanted</a>'s ticketed Friday night show.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Justin Bieber Fans Camp Out In Rain For 'Today' Show" id="vid:791174" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>MTV News caught up with fans today, they told us a little rain wouldn't hurt because they came well prepared with sleeping bags, umbrellas and jackets, including a pair of sisters from New Jersey were third in the line for Biebs.</P><P>"We came to the 'Today' show last November, but we were way, way in the back, so we got out front this time," Hayley, 17, said. "And we're going to see him this time because he's amazing and beautiful."</P><P>Still, the continuous rain and cloudy weather was making it less than ideal for camping out on the New York City pavement. "The rain has been a big issue because I really don't like getting my hair wet, honestly, but everybody here has been pretty good," she added. "We just have umbrellas, because we're not allowed to have tents."</P><P>When it comes to using the bathrooms, the fans were getting creative. "We use the bathroom in the parking garage where our car is," Hayley noted. "We don't really have anywhere else to go, so we go wherever we can get in."</P><P>Yasmin, 13, was using Twitter to pass the time ... and keep constant updates on Justin. "While we're waiting for Justin, we're basically on Twitter, reading his tweets and everything." A valuable way to pass the time, considering Bieber <a href="https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/212974741848461312">tweeted</a> just today that he'll be bringing along a special guest for his NBC appearance.</P><P>Another way fans were passing the time was to make friends with their fellow fans.</P><P>"All the Beliebers are here, it's kind of like one giant party in the street, so it's been good," Amanda, 15, said."When he comes out onstage, it's just going to hit us and he's just going to be right there, like, practically singing to us," she gushed. "He's my idol; he's the only person I'd sleep on the ground for, for two nights."</P><P>Meanwhile, a few blocks away at Times Square's Best Buy Theater, about half a dozen Wanted fans from Staten Island (who already had tickets) waited with coloring books, in hopes of making sure they'd be in the front row. The Wanted fans seemed a bit luckier than Bieber fans in that they had an awning to camp out under. "The rain it's been all right. We've managed, we have umbrellas, sleeping bags, coats, everything, so it's been pretty OK," Melissa, 24, said.</P><P>"It's worth it because the energy they provide onstage is worth being front row, I don't know how to describe it, it's a different feeling than if you were in the back," Melissa further explained.</P><P>When asked how she'd feel when the guys finally take to the stage Friday night, she smiled, "We'll feel relief. Relief and excitement."</P><P><i>Would you camp out in the rain to see your favorite singer? Tell us in the comments!</i></p>
