While Bieber's music isn't my cuppa I appreciate his artistry, voice and talent.. as well as his determination to make his dream come true. Gordon has commented that he is a fan and admires his musicianship and songwriting talent.. He was disappointed to not meet him after the Grey Cup event a couple of years ago. Perhaps he sees himself in young justin - making mistakes, being a kid from a small town on the big stage. And perhaps thanking gawd there wasn't the paparazzi, twitter, instagram back then as there is now to hi lite every wrong move any and every body makes. i'm not in the spotlight and never was but i know that i certainly did and said things as a teen/young adult that were part of growing up and we all did them...justin and his peers have nowhere to hide when they sometimes act in ways we don't approve..he's only 21 and been in the limelight since he was 15..and not just the Canadian limelight-he's a world wide superstar in every sense of the word in today's entertainment industry...He's done pretty well for himself and those who are employed thru him and by him. He works hard.. There's a lot of 21 year olds out there who can't decide whether they want to drink all night or get stoned and wake up tomorrow and do it all again.. I'll take Justin over them any day.lol..
