Justin Bieber is a young musician from Canada. His success story began through YouTube, where he was discovered by Scooter Braun, an American Talent Manager.

2008 - Scooter Braun, manager of Bieber, came across one of these YouTube videos and decided to contact the family. Although at first Pattie refused, at the age of 13, Justin flew to Atlanta and was soon signed to Raymond Braun Media Group after singing for Usher Raymond.
