Justin Bieber purchases Ashton Kutcher's £6.8m love nest








Justin buys a home in which he can cosy up to girlfriend Selena.



Now magazine report the teen heart-throb has treated himself to the lavish five bedroom, 9,400 sq ft home overlooking Lake Hollywood, which he wants to share with his gorgeous girlfriend Selena Gomez.



The pop superstar bought himself the lavish pad next to Lake Hollywood for his 18th birthday.





The house features five bedrooms, eight bathrooms, a bar, gym, cinema room, massage room and a spa.





Justin was the previous owner of a £1m Los Angeles condo, which was gifted to him for his 17th birthday, and his new 9,400 square foot home provides plenty of space in which to relax with girlfriend Selena Gomez, 19.





Single man, Ashton has reportedly been renting the home for a whopping £31,000 a month since he filed for divorce in November - so there's no surprise if the rooms have already been christened.

Carly Rae Jepsen: Justin Bieber's Tweet Changed The 'Call Me Maybe' Singer's Life










Two months ago, Carly Rae Jepsen got a panicked call from her sister. "She was hysterically screaming into the phone 'Justin Bieber just tweeted about your song!'" Jepsen tells AOL Music Blog. "I was like 'What? Really? No way!' And then I went to check it out and, in fact, he had."



The pop idol had heard Jepsen's insanely catchy new single 'Call Me Maybe' on the radio and instantly fallen under its spell. Soon, both the Biebs and his lady friend Selena Gomez were both tweeting about their love for the song, gaining the Juno nominee and 'Canadian Idol' alumus (she placed third in the show's fifth season) instant international attention.



And that was only the start of Carly Rae's whirlwind ride to almost overnight pop stardom.



"Not too long after that, we were informed by my label, 604, that [Justin] and his manager [Scooter Braun] had actually approached them and asked if we'd be interested in combining forces and spreading the music outside of Canada."



Jepsen and her team were definitely interested, so she flew out to Los Angeles to meet with the pair and wound up signing with Braun and his Schoolboy Records label.



The ink was barely dry on the contracts before Jepsen discovered that her new label mate had another surprise in store for her. Back at home, she went on Facebook and watched a video she'd recently been tagged in. She thought the video, which featured a bunch of mustachioed fans dancing around and goofing off to 'Call Me Maybe' was cute, but she didn't really realize what was going on at first.

"It didn't really register until halfway through. I was kind of looking at it and I was like 'That looks a lot like Justin Bieber! That looks a lot like Selena Gomez!' And then at the end of it, I was like 'My goodness! This is insane!'" she laughs. "That was a total shock. A good shock, but definitely a shock."



That video -- which also features the likes of 'High School Musical'/'Hellcats' star Ashley Tisdale and members of Big Time Rush -- became a viral sensation, garnering over 20 million views on YouTube and rocketing 'Call Me Maybe' to the top of the digital charts, the first song by a Canadian artist to do so since her new buddy Bieber accomplished it with 'Baby' in 2010.



"It felt like a really welcoming gesture," Jepsen says of the video. "We had just signed the documents not a day or two before and then they posted the video and I kind of realized how sincere they were about helping me."



To thank him for the video tribute, Jepsen made a last-minute appearance at Justin's 18th birthday party. "It was kind of something that was thrown my way at the last minute. Through the first verse, I'm not really aware that I'm there! And, like, halfway through the song I start to sing," she admits. "It was a terrifying and exciting experience to be spontaneously thrown into!"

She's also working on a duet with Bieber. "The first day I met him, he invited me to join in on a song that he had in mind for me, and we mapped it out that night. I was pleasantly surprised with just how passionate he is as a musician and how much I loved the song!" Jepsen enthuses. "I can't even begin to explain how talented that guy is."



She isn't sure exactly when their track will be released, but the singer hopes it's soon. "If I had my way, it would be out today! Yesterday!" she exclaims. "I can't wait to share that one."



In the meantime, she's already back in the studio with her friend and 'Call Me Maybe' co-writer Josh Ramsay of Mariana's Trench fame, working on new pop-oriented material that she hopes will expand on the sound she discovered with her hit single. Even though her current album, 'Curiosity,' just came out, she expects to have a new album ready for release by September. Then she'll start planning a proper tour.



And somewhere, in all of this craziness, she might actually find a couple of minutes to catch her breath and enjoy the ride.



"There's moments on plane rides where I'll sit for a second and just take it all in. I'll be looking at the clouds, thinking 'Life is nuts. This is so insane. I'm flying to Texas right now. I'm flying to LA!' This is not something I thought would ever really be happening for me. So there's definitely moments where I sit there and I can just feel overcome with gratitude."

Mark Wahlberg Reveals His Film With Justin Bieber Is on Its Way




Justin Bieber said on his 18th birthday that he sees himself acting a lot more in his future. "I have some ideas right now I'm working on," he told MTV. Well, we may have a better understanding of what those ideas are now!

After much speculation, Mark Wahlberg revealed to MTV News at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, that the script to his and Justin's basketball movie is on its way.

"We're waiting for the script. Every time I see him or Scooter [Braun], I have to explain to them that it's a bit of a process having the script written."


Justin had previously revealed that the film is about basketball. "We are actually working on a script right now with Mark Wahlberg for next summer," he had told Access Hollywood.  "It's a basketball movie. It's a drama-comedy. I love [Mark's] stuff."

Although we'll have to wait a bit longer for this highly anticipated film, Mark revealed that he thinks it's "worth the wait."

"It certainly has to be something that's good enough to go and have green-lit and make right away," he said. "But I think it will be well worth the wait."

Beliebers may have to wait to watch Justin act, but they only have to wait 14 more days for the release of his new single, "Boyfriend." The singer Tweeted, "heading back to work. focused.

Justin Bieber's Mom Writing a Memoir

Pattie Mallette, Bieber's mother has signed with Revell to write "Nowhere But Up: The Story of Justin Bieber's Mom," the publishing company announced today. He is writing the foreword to the book for his mom. It will be released on Sept. 18.

In addition to writing about her famous offspring, Mallette will detail her own story of youthful abuse, trauma, and addiction that included a suicide attempt at seventeen. She will also write about how she turned her life around when she found herself single and pregnant with Justin.



Mallette hopes her story will inspire other women in similar circumstances. "I want them to see that no matter how desperate their circumstances may be, they can have hope for a better future," says Mallette. She plans to donate a portion of the book's proceeds to charity.

"Pattie's story is a powerful example of courage and determination that will inspire anyone who has faced struggles in life," added Jennifer Leep, editorial director for Revell. "She's living proof that even in the darkest of places, there is always room for hope."

Justin Bieber published his first book, "First Step 2 Forever: My Story," in October 2010, and it went on to sell more than a million copies in 25 languages. His second book, "Justin Bieber: Just Getting Started," is also scheduled for publication in September.

Today Mallette helps manage her son's career and supports efforts to help troubled young women. 

A.J. Gregory will serve as Mallette's co-writer. She is represented on the book deal by Fedd & Company.

Justin Bieber tenderly kisses Selena Gomez








This is really going to anger a hell of a lot of people, but we’re sorry we think it’s only fair you know.

So, you know how it was the Biebs birthday a few days ago, well he had a little party and basically he spent the whole time smooching his gf Selena Gomez.

Apparently he especially flew out to Florida, where Selena is filming, so he could spend the evening with her.  And then the young couple took pictures of themselves and she, yes she posted them on Twitter. Bad move Selena, bad move, you’re going to have to face the wrath of the Bielebers now.



Selena twitted: “Happy birthday to my best friend in the world world!!! Have a great birthday baby!”

Wow, she calls him baby and he’s her best friend in the whole world? We didn’t know that, did we?

Anyway it seems someone might have had a word her, telling her it’s not worth risking her life by putting the pictures up, as they are no longer accessible via Twitter.

Justin Bieber has joined an expanding list of celebrities who own Fisker Karma cars. The pop singer was presented with one of the exclusive $100,000 plug-in hybrids for his 18th birthday March 1 as a surprise gift on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.




"You work really really hard," his manager, Scooter Braun, said during the presentation. "I always yell at you, 'Don't get anything flashy!' You know, we're not about that. Be humble, be humble. And I kind of broke my own rule."



Bieber looked shocked when he walked toward the vehicle. "That's for me?! That's crazy!"




Actor Leonardo DiCaprio received the first Fisker Karma made. Former vice-president Al Gore and former Secretary of State Colin Powell also own the unique cars.

Justin Bieber's New Wax Figure Revealed for His Birthday








Justin Bieber has had quite the 18th birthday so far—from receiving a Fisker Karma to breaking world records—we can't imagine what else could top his big day?

And then there was Madame Tussauds revealing a brand new wax figure of the pop-singing phenomenon looking very manly indeed...



OK, so he doesn't look that much different from his last wax statue with girlfriend Selena Gomez. But this does solve the mystery of what Madame Tussauds would do to Bieber's original figure since he's a growing boy—er, man, and clearly, the best strategy is clearly to make a whole new Bieber.

All in all, it's a pretty rad gift and we can all appreciate some fine art in Bieber form.

Wonder what he'll get when he turns 21...

Justin Bieber Punks Taylor Swift Into Thinking She Ruined a Wedding









Everyone, including Justin Bieber, knows that Taylor Swift is the "sweetest girl ever." So, why wouldn't he choose her as his victim on the new season of Punk'D.

That's right, Ashton Kutcher's hit MTV reality show is back and it's featuring all the hottest young stars in Hollywood.


We've already seen a preview of Miley Cyrus and Kelly Osbourne tricking Khloe Kardashian, and now Biebs is punking Taylor, making her think she literally torched a wedding!

"This is completely not okay!" a teary-eyed Taylor says after she witnesses an explosion she thinks she caused. Bieber and MTV producers trick Taylor into thinking she sets a fire on a yacht hosting a wedding after she shoots a flare off a balcony.

"You're the worst!" Taylor screams at Justin when she realizes it was all a joke.

Punk'D returns to MTV on Thursday, March 29 at 10pm! Watch a clip of Justin punking Taylor below.

At last, he can legally gamble, sign contracts, get married, enroll in the armed services, drink alcohol in nearly every country, plus the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec. Also, he's no longer "jailbait" and he knows it.



On Thursday morning, the birthday boy tweeted: 










To be fair, Bieber is known for his taste in older women -- he's been dating 19-year-old pop star and actress Selena Gomez for more than a year now.

He's only been "legal" for a few hours, but turning 18 has been very good for the singer. Appearing on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday, Bieber revealed his new single, "Boyfriend," will be out March 26. Bieber was given a huge gift by his manager, Scooter Braun, who praised the singer for all the amazing work he's done with charity, most recently spending time with a 6-year-old fan who is sticken with cancer.

"I always yell at you, 'Don't get anything flashy.' You know, we're not about that. Be humble, be humble. And I kind of broke my own rule," Braun told Bieber before presenting him with a Fisker Karma -- an ultra-exclusive, environmentally friendly, plug-in hybrid luxury sports sedan that costs more than $100,000.

Did Justin Bieber Give Selena Gomez A Promise Ring?










Did Selena Gomez get an early Valentine's Day gift from Justin Bieber?





The 19-year-old singer and actress posted a photo of a sparking ring with a diamond-encrusted "J" on Feb. 12, writing: "I'm finally home :)"





Back from her latest show in Montevideo, Uruguay, Gomez just wrapped up a world tour that began in July and announced she was taking a break from music to focus on her acting career.





The photo of the ring comes with no real explanation, but we have a hunch the "J" is for Justin. Bieber may turn 18 next month, but it's highly unlikely he proposed to Gomez with that sparkler.





Selena should be careful how she wears her jewelry, since it has been known to start rumors. In December, Gomez was spotted wearing a different ring while on a trip to Mexico, but her rep quickly quashed the rumors that there were any upcoming nuptials.

Video: Justin Bieber Plays Prank On Proactiv Customers











Noted prankster Justin Bieber has been known to play practical jokes on both pals, such as tour mate Willow Smith, and fast-food attendants. Even Taylor Swift has been a target of his high jinks.





So, we weren't surprised to see this new Proactiv spot, in which he tricks unsuspecting teens into thinking he's the director of a commercial for the acne treatment. The heartthrob hides in a booth and gives odd instructions via megaphone, such as "Smile like you just got your allowance" and "Smile like you just lost your cat ... but now you've found him" in a variety of eccentric accents. Finally, he steps out to reveal his identity to the squealing fans (and offers skincare product recommendations while he's at it).





Perhaps the Biebs is honing his comedic chops for his upcoming "Saturday Night Live" performance.





He tweeted:
