Justin Bieber is a teen phenom who's only getting more popular with time. But will his hectic work schedule, isolation from same-age peers and his adult responsibilities at the age of 16 make him end up like other tragic child stars such as Michael Jackson, Corey Haim and Lindsay Lohan?
'I WON'T LET HIM GO DOWN THE WRONG PATH'
Not a chance, says his manager, Scotter Braun. "I won’t let that happen," Braun, 28, tells Daily Mail.
Scooter, who calls Bieber "a great kid who is caring, smart, and works his *ss off harder than any adult I have ever worked with," is certain Justin is destined for greatness and won't fall prey to drug abuse, alcoholism or depression as other child superstars before him have.
Bieber, whose mom Pattie Mallette travels with him, has said he takes one day a week off to play sports, relax, catch up on sleep, and hang out with friends.
STUDIES 4 HOURS A DAY ON THE ROAD
When he's on the road, Justin travels with a tutor and does four hours of studying every day. It's a hectic, exhausting lifestyle, but one Bieber seems to take in stride.
Bieber, who was raised by his single teenage mom in poverty in a housing project in Ontario, Canada, became an overnight sensation in 2008 when his YouTube music videos were noticed by music executives.
Since being signed by Usher's label, Justin has grossed almost $200 million worldwide, sung for President Obama and topped the music charts with his debut album, My World, making him the youngest star to top the charts since Stevie Wonder in 1963.
But despite his legions of fans around the world, Bieber remains modest and level-headed about the fan adulation.
"It is not real love,’ he says. "You can say it is, but it’s not. [My fans] do not know who I am."
