Having shot to unprecedented fame at 14, this music wizard has grown from a teenage crush to a global star. While his music sales and hit songs justify his meteoric rise, his array of business ventures, real estate investments and luxury product endorsements indicate the enormous wealth he has amassed, both of which contribute to Justin Bieber’s net worth.
Justin Drew Bieber is a Canadian singer-songwriter and record producer, born in London, Ontario, in 1994 to teen mother Pattie Mallette. From a young age, he tried his hands at drums, piano and trumpet and participated in local singing contests. Mallette shared his videos on Facebook and YouTube which soon became popular.
Out on headhunting, Bieber’s now manager Scooter Braun came across the content and signed him with the Raymond Braun Media Group (RBMG). In 2008, R&B star Usher became his mentor, and the following year, his first blockbuster track “One Time” arrived. The hitmaker became a worldwide name with his debut full-length album My World 2.0 in 2010, whose song “Baby ft. Ludacris” thrust him to the industry’s forefront, and the rest is history.
Bieber’s successful world tours and chart-topping albums along with conjectures of his bumpy relationship with Selena Gomez and marriage with model Hailey Baldwin never cease to keep him in the news. The “Yummy” crooner enjoys a massive fan following and earns handsomely from his groovy music, brand endorsements and other business ventures.

The following year, Justice was released, and it, once again, cemented his position as a global music star who was here to stay. The eighth JB album to reach the apex spot on Billboard 200, it debuted at No.1 immediately after release but dropped a spot below in the second week. However, it made a dramatic comeback shortly. Complex quotes Billboard, stating, “In its third week of release, Justice garnered 74,000 equivalent album units, 67,000 of which came from SEA units, 6,000 from album sales, and 2,000 from TEA units.”
According to RIAA, Purpose is awarded 6x Multi-Platinum, My World 2.0 is awarded 4x Multi-Platinum, Believe 3x Multi-Platinum, and Under The Mistletoe and Justice are both 2x Multi-Platinum albums.
