Justin Bieber’s Net Worth

Some of the richest celebrities are under the age of 25. Take a look at Justin Bieber, for example. The 22-year-old Canadian singer and songwriter reportedly has a $200 million net worth. While in recent days, Bieber has received quite a bit of backlash for some of his erratic behavior including drag racing, getting arrested for a DUI and resisting arrest, there’s no doubt that he’s a beloved singer and performer, especially among younger generations.

Bieber got his start on YouTube in 2007 when his YouTube channel, where he covered songs, was discovered. Then he was signed to Raymond Braun Media Group which is R&B artist Usher’s record label. He released his first debut album, “My World” just two years later in 2009 which became certified platinum in the U.S. He followed this successful album with “My World 2.0” in 2010. Bieber became the first artist to have seven songs from a debut record on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
