I've had a few gigs where things have got out of hand and there has been a huge crush with my fans. They are important and I don't want them being hurt. They are a mad crowd.

We're trying to set up a movie for me in the near future. It's going to be similar to the story of how I got discovered. Kinda like my own version of '8 Mile.'

I'm looking forward to influencing others in a positive way. My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it.

Of course, I think that people are just waiting for that time when I make a mistake and they're gonna jump on it.... There's gonna be haters.

I'm crazy, I'm nuts. Just the way my brain works. I'm not normal. I think differently.

Friends are the best to turn to when you're having a rough day.

The Beliebers have done some pretty crazy stuff. Last week, the night before I was due to do a show in Germany, four girls went into a dumpster so they could sneak into the building. They climbed in and hid. When the guys working on the truck started getting the garbage they found them straight away. It was crazy.

Canada's the best country in the world.

Not trying to be arrogant, but if I walked down the street and a girl saw me, she might take a look back because maybe I'm good-looking, right?

I want my world to be fun.

I leave the hip thrusts to Michael Jackson.

Now that I'm on top, everyone wants to bring me down. Everyone's trying to tug at me and take my spot.

It's cool when fans spend so much time making things for me. It means a lot.

A lot of people who are religious, I think they get lost. They go to church just to go to church.

I grew up below the poverty line; I didn't have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger as a person, it built my character. Now I have a 4.0 grade point average and I want to go to college, and just become a better person.

I think older people can appreciate my music because I really show my heart when I sing, and it's not corny. I think I can grow as an artist, and my fans will grow with me.

No one can stop me.

Sometimes it's overwhelming but I love my fans and it's always great to see them.

I started singing about three years ago, I entered a local singing competition called Stratford Idol. The other people in the competition had been taking singing lessons and had vocal coaches. I wasn't taking it too seriously at the time, I would just sing around the house. I was only 12 and I got second place.

I want to be a young dad. By 25 or 26 I want to see myself, like, married or start looking for a family.
