Did you know that Justin Bieber and Judge Judy used to be neighbors? I didn’t until I saw this article from People magazine. And apparently, they weren’t necessarily on the best terms. Judge Judy Sheindlin claims Bieber used to be terrified of her. She believes it stems from her public acknowledgment of his teen years.
Justin Bieber – Scared of Judge Judy?
She told Access Hollywood, “He’s scared to death of me. There was a period of time before he grew up — when he was foolish and doing foolish things.”
Judge Judy also said Bieber supposedly had his security watching out for when she would be outside, so he wouldn’t have any chance encounters.
Judge Judy did speak out about Justin Bieber back in 2014 after his DUI arrest. She felt he might have been taking his celebrity status for granted.
How Does Justin Bieber Feel Now?
That’s a good question that I’d love to know the answer to! But, there’s no word now on how Justin would feel about bumping into Judge Judy… but that arrest was 8 years ago, and he’s come a long way since then.
I can’t say I blame Justin Bieber at all for his “fear” of Judge Judy though. She is a very powerful and strong woman. And honestly, a little intimidating! She’s definitely not someone I would want to make mad. And I could only hope if she was speaking publicly about me that it would be for a good thing! But I do have a lot of respect for her. She accomplished a lot in her life!
Justin Bieber’s 6 Best Songs Of All Time Ranked
The month of March kicks off with a very important holiday — Justin Bieber’s birthday. The “Peaches” singer was born on March 1, 1994, in Ontario, Canada. Justin learned to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet while growing up in Canada. When he was 12 years old, Bieber performed Ne-Yo’s “So Sick” for a local singing competition, in which he placed second. His mother, Pattie Mallette, posted a video of the performance on YouTube for their family and friends to see and continued to upload videos of her son singing covers of popular R&B songs. With this, Bieber’s popularity on the site grew. Bieber also used to busk on the steps in front of concerts at Avon Theatre.
Scooter Braun, So So Def Recordings’ former marketing executive, accidentally came across one of Bieber’s YouTube videos and tracked him down. Impressed with his talent, Scooter convinced Bieber’s mom and their church elders to let him go with him to Atlanta to record demo tapes. One week later, Bieber began singing for Usher and signed with Usher and Braun’s Raymond Braun Media Group at 13 years old. Braun signed on to be Bieber’s manager in 2008. His debut single was 2009’s “One Time,” with his first EP being My World. The EP had such popular hits like “One Time,” One Less Lonely Girl,” and “Favorite Girl.”
As we previously reported, Bieber sold his song catalog to Hipgnosis for $200 million. The sale has been called the largest of any artist of Bieber’s generation. Bieber’s net worth is estimated to be about $300 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Of the sale, Braun called JB a “once-in-a-generation artist and that is reflected and acknowledged by the magnitude of this deal.”
