Justin Bieber takes over the world, one piercing stare at a time
Justin Bieber and the eyes that own your soul.
More Just Announced
If you were born before 1994, you may not know about Justin Bieber—who announced dates for his first major tour this week, stopping in Denver with Sean Kingston July 8 at the 1stBank Center. The tween heartthrob who was headhunted by Maury Povich and Justin Timberlake—and eventually swooped up by Usher and signed to Def Jam—seemingly came out of nowhere last year with his first single, "One Time," and has been batting his eyelashes at millions of girls and record sales ever since. He's got a creepy underage sex appeal reminiscent of Joey McIntyre (before he went all Jesus on us), and is shaping up to be the marketable male equivalent of pretend-adult Miley Cyrus. He may not be old enough to vote or buy porn, but Bieber is just what America needs—another teen pop star to take our attention off of boring stuff like the healthcare debate and our failing public school system.

Weekly vid pick: With the help of Ludacris, Justin Bieber's eyes successfully do it with every girl in the bowling alley. (And yes, you heard correctly, Luda actually name drops Starbucks.)
