Justin Bieber is 15 years old, from a small town in Canada and definitely having a moment. This particular moment had what felt like a bazillion little girls lined up around the Hard Rock Café in Times Square to catch Justin's performance at the third annual "Tiki Rocks the Square for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals" event in New York.
"My manager and my people got the call and I was like, 'It's an awesome organization,' so I'm here now," he told us about the chance to play a set at the event, which also featured rapper Fabolous. "I'm very excited. Fab is awesome."
We arrived to interview Justin — who had both Justin Timberlake and Usher battle it out over who would get to mentor him (Usher won!) — about his upcoming album, My World, due out in November.
We also wondered what it was like to become so famous so fast, and it seems like he hasn't yet adjusted to all the attention. It's clear that he appreciates all the opportunities that he has been given, like playing a charity event to a swarm of fanatical teenage girls. And it's also clear that he's still not used to it all yet. Which is fine, because we're sure that with all the attention he's getting these days, by the time his album hits stores on November 17, he'll be an old pro, and by the time he's 16, he'll be unstoppable.
And, in case you're not yet familiar with Justin, MTV News will be rolling out articles about and interviews with him over the coming days.
