Justin Bieber is a Canadian singer who shot to fame after being discovered on YouTube, which was barely 15 years ago. However, Bieber has accomplished a lot in less than two decades! With six studio albums to his name, countless music videos, and producer credits – it’s no wonder Justin Bieber’s net worth in 2023 is estimated at $300 million.

So how did that happen? What all contributes to that number? Read on to find out how his career developed, his most successful business endeavors, and how he turned from a regular teenager to a multimillionaire so quickly.

Early Life

Justin Bieber was born in London, Ontario, Canada on March 1, 1994. His mother was only 18 when she had him and never got married to Bieber’s father. She raised Bieber with the help of her parents. He attended St. Michael Catholic Secondary School in Stratford, Ontario, and graduated high school in 2012.

Even at a young age, Bieber had always been musically inclined, quickly learning to play several instruments, including the piano, guitar, drums, and trumpet. When he was 12 years old, Bieber joined a local singing contest where he sang “So Sick” by Ne-Yo. He won second prize, and his mother posted a video of his performance on YouTube. Since then, she kept uploading videos every time Bieber performed.

Music Career: The Beginnings

Justin Bieber was discovered when he was just 14 years old. Scooter Braun opened one of his videos on YouTube in 2007 by accident and was impressed by what he saw. He located Bieber and took him to Atlanta to make some recording demos. Just a few days upon his arrival, Bieber found himself singing in front of Usher.

The R&B superstar also liked what he saw, and soon enough, Bieber was signed to Raymond Braun Media Group. This is an outfit co-owned by Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun and Usher. This eventually paved the way for Bieber to sign a contract with Island Records. Bieber and his mother then moved to Atlanta so that he can pursue his newfound career in the music industry.

Two-Part Debut Album Was an Instant Success

Two years after having been discovered, Bieber was ready with his debut album. It was released in two parts – My World and My World 2.0.

My World went on to become 5x platinum. It also set the record as the first debut album with four singles in the Billboard Top 40 even before the album was released. These singles were One Time, Love Me, One Less Lonely Girl, and Favorite Girl.

My World 2.0 also did amazingly well, debuting at the top of the US Billboard 200. This was after selling close to 700,000 copies in the first three weeks. Because of this, Bieber also became the youngest male artist in the top position since Stevie Wonder in 1963.

With only one album in his name, Justin Bieber’s net worth was already valued at more than $10 million.

Bieber’s Rapid Rise to Fame

The string of highly successful albums was just beginning. The incredibly positive response to his first albums brought on a flood of offers and opportunities for Bieber. In 2010, he became a presenter at the Grammy Awards. He was invited to be part of the remake of We Are the World, singing the lines originally performed by Lionel Richie.

In 2011, while still riding on the success of My World 2.0, Bieber released the Never Say Never album. At the same time, a biopic/concert film of the same title was also released in theaters. It grossed about $12.4 million on opening day from about 3,100 theaters. By the end of its run, it would earn more than $98 million in theater attendance.

It was also in 2011 that Forbes named him the 2^nd highest-paid celebrity under 30 for earning $53 million in a year. Towards the end of the year, Bieber released a Christmas album called Under the Mistletoe. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling over 210,000 copies within a week of its release. Ten years later, it would make the list of Billboard’s Greatest of All Time Top Holiday Albums.

Reaching the $100 Million Milestone

Bieber’s massively successful third studio album Believe came out in 2012. The first single from the album, Boyfriend, shot to the top spot in the Canadian Hot 100. It peaked at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Because of the explosive sales of this album, Justin Bieber’s net worth crossed the $100 million mark before the end of the year.

Aside from reaching a significant net worth milestone, the album also helped Bieber achieve a shift in sound. By this time, he was aiming to transition from teen pop to more mature music, which syncs perfectly with his deeper voice and stronger beats. It was also around this time that Bieber set the record for having more than 40 million followers on Twitter.

Shortly after the album’s release, Bieber went on the Believe Tour that started in Glendale, Arizona. The tour included over 150 sold-out shows in North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, selling over $150 million in tickets. Some of the shows sold out within seconds of ticket opening. The tour’s last show took place in Perth, Australia, in December 2013.

Albums and Singles

It wasn’t until 2015 that Bieber released his fourth album, Purpose. The first single, What Do You Mean? debuted at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, Bieber’s first song to do so. The feat also earned him a Guinness World Record as the youngest male artist to debut at the top of the charts.

His next single, Sorry, debuted at the number 2 spot, staying there for 8 weeks before finally climbing to number 1. He was just getting started though, because the third single, Love Yourself, was also on its way to the top of the chart. When it reached number 1, Sorry was still at number 2. With this, Bieber became the third artist to hold the top two spots, next only to Usher in 2004 and the Beatles in 1964.

Bieber collected heaps of awards and nominations at the Grammy Awards that year. The purpose was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album and Album of the Year. Bieber also earned Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance nominations for Love Yourself.

It took another 5 years for Bieber to finish his fifth album, Changes, which came out in 2020. It was immediately followed by the sixth studio album, Justice, a year later. Just like all his previous albums, these two recent releases landed at the top of the charts. They also generated an impressive amount of revenue.
