Enrique admits he has Bieber fever.
“He’s everywhere. I’ve heard his music. I actually like that song he did with Ludacris … ‘Baby’? It’s hooky. It’s a hooky song,” he said. “I think he’s a talented kid."
But does the teen pop sensation/heartthrob/mogul have a future?
“It’s so difficult to tell about the future. Judging by his talent, yeah, I think he has the ability. But will the kids be able to grow up with him as he moves on? It’s all going to come down to the music he believes in. In this business, you’re only as good as your last hit. As long as he keeps making really good hits, then yeah. It’s a tough business — one day you’re hot, the next day you’re s**t."

A 16 year-old who can barely drive has the most watched video for the month of April.
With the help of rapper Ludacris, Justin Bieber has accumulated more than 55.25 million views for his hit song, "Baby," throughout the entire web.
*Yawn*
Not impressed? We should note that the official music video for "Baby" was uploaded over two months ago to video behemoth Vevo/YouTube, and it doesn't even crack the top 100 of April views for YouTube.
So how did Justin Bieber get those 55.25 million views? Two reasons:
There are multiple copies of the same video on sites like YouTube. All the views that should be going to the official video are instead spread out throughout the other uploaded versions. Imagine a new Starbucks store taking away the market share from the older Starbucks across the street.
The video has a reach that extends beyond YouTube. Yes, there are other video sites on the Internet aside from YouTube, and they're gaining views for Justin Bieber's dancing and singing abilities. Apparently, the music consuming youth still use sites like MTV.com and MySpace.
If that doesn't impress you, then this might: Justin Bieber has made a total of four music videos. All four videos are in April's top 10 list of most watched videos.
Whether you like him or not, Justin Bieber is taking over the Internet.

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
(CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) - One sip on a plastic sparkling water bottle by a pop star and a charity is $624 richer.
Emma Hall-Phillips, a 16-year-old New Zealander, met Canadian pop star Justin Bieber last week while he was in a make-up room at New Zealand 's TV3 studio, reported the station. "And five seconds later he comes in to get his makeup and I was like 'Oh, he's sitting (less than an inch) away from me," she said.
Bieber took a sip from the bottle but quickly put it down, saying, "Ew, what's this?" according to TV3 .
After Bieber left the room, Hall-Phillips' mom, who works for the TV station, grabbed the bottle and they put it on the auction site TradeMe .
"I put it on TradeMe to see how much I could get from the crazy fans," the 16-year-old told TV3.
On Sunday, a buyer – parents of a Bieber fanatic whose identity was not available – bid on the bottle and got it for $624 ($855 NZ dollars) reported TV3 . Emma and her mother only expected to get up to around $22 (U.S. dollars) for the water bottle.
The mother and daughter say they plan to donate the money to the cancer charity CanTeen, according to the New Zealand Herald .
"I'm not (a) crazy Justin Bieber fan," Hall-Phillips says. "I'd rather sell it and give money to a good cause."
Maybe the extreme price for a plastic water bottle isn't so surprising when you consider that 16-year-old Bieber has 2.2 million people following him on Twitter .
Like the many pop stars before him, Bieber is mobbed by teenage girls who crave a piece of something he's come in contact with – a half-eaten Weetbix, an autographed chocolate wrapper, and, of course, the abandoned sparkling water bottle, reports the New Zealand Herald .

I told TMZ to stop but they wouldn't.
First they do this:
"Only one of them won an Oscar for playing a female-to-male pre-operative transsexual"
then this:
"Only one of them had a hit album called "Good Girl Gone Bad."
and now this!!
"Both have recorded songs with Ludacris."
So I made something for TMZ:
Both of them use conditioner.
Only one of them need conditioner.
