"It was always that little kids loved Michael"

Like Britney once reminded us in that song she had out before she started flashing her lunch and getting married for giggles, Justin Bieber is not a boy, yet not a man. He's a 'moy' or a 'ban' hybrid at the moment, on the cusp of a transition when, in his own words, he might be able to enjoy making more love. To celebrate this, V magazine photographed him with a burst ball on his head. We think it's a metaphor :-/

Talking to V magazine, Bieber explained:

"There are people who try to grow up too fast—they’re 18, so they’re like, I’m not a kid anymore. People need to know I’m not a kid anymore. But at the end of the day, I’m not completely grown-up. I’m still learning. I’m going to grow up how I grow up. I’m not going to try to conform to what people want me to be or go out there and start partying, have people see me with alcohol. I want to do it at my own pace. But I’m never going to make myself so the kids and the parents don’t respect me. There’re some artists that [parents won’t] let their kids go and see because they think they’re a bad influence. I want to be able to do what Michael [Jackson] did—he always sang clean lyrics—and it was always that little kids loved Michael and grandparents loved Michael. I don’t want to start singing about things like sex, drugs, and swearing. I’m into love, and maybe I’ll get more into making love when I’m older. But I want to be someone who is respected by everybody. Because right now, the young people are who make society. Young people determine what’s cool. Young people determine what’s going to be in style. So I always stick with the young people, that’s what I say."

God Jacko would've loved Bieber.
