By each of the financial account, not Justin Bieber has trouble a day in his life again. But instead of a mountain, he hammered harder than ever.
"This is a Canadian ice hockey player in it," says his manager, Scooter Braun. "The kid is super competitive., Even if it smells that everything slows down, it becomes a workaholic."
Bieber is aware of the stakes and grind for 10-hour rehearsals in Los Angeles for the sold-out concert Trust, which begins Sept. 29 in Glendale, Arizona, now 18, made teen YouTube sensation has become a young adult willing to show their musical chops to older fans and prove its staying power as the pop machine.
Phase One of this mission was to free Believe in June, more mature collection of tunes equipped with Nicki Minaj and Drake. Phase two just released his second book, Just Getting Started (HarperCollins, $ 21.99), which deals with fame and personal issues such as paternity suit filed and declined in 2011.
And the third phase is at hand, 70-plus-date arena tour, which wraps itself in the U.S. in January, followed by strikes in Europe in February. Bieber driving force? No less than a luminary of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
"I was watching (movies) with his performances in the ring. He is my inspiration," Bieber says USA Today. "When my team together, we are always asking," What would Michael do? '
In fact, one of the favorite Bieber segments in a new 90-minute show is a medley of his hits before believe, partly inspired by the Jackson 5 medley seen in the late pop star in the documentary attempts, this is it. And just as Jackson had to go with Ben, do not stop Til You Get Enough, Bieber knows he must now go beyond the baby.
"I do not want to be just another teen heartthrob. Know that some people are waiting for me to fail, thinking," Oh, his time was up. "Well, I like to be weaker, and this tour is my chance to take it to the next level. Never put in more hours to prepare, because I want to (tour) was excellent. I want it to be a party."
Braun adds, "When I was younger, (Justin) Timberlake and Usher, and (Britney) Spears shows you have seen Justin wants to be that guy for his generation, he wants to be one of the greatest artists in history ..."
This noble goal prompted Bieber and company enlist the services of Jon M. Chu, the director of the success of Justin's bio-doc Never Say Never, Step Up franchise and the upcoming GI Joe: Retaliation.
Although Chu never directed a stage show, Believe Tour promises to be a Hollywood-worthy extravaganza that ups ante considerably on both the last tour Justin (interestingly, only a few dancers and relied on the judgment of a screech Justin), and last spring Global Tour promotion for the album Believe (which went heavy on the stripped-down acoustic numbers).
Believe Tour threes while the number of dancers to a dozen, a film features video clips shot by veteran hits Chu, and is equipped with a triple-level scene with wind machines, cranes and runways, which is Braun joked, "The only thing that bothers me in this route is Justin cardio. "
Other aces glasses are also lending a hand, including lighting technician Chris Kuroda, known for his work with the band Phish jam innovative, and magician David Blaine, who contributes a few illusions. And just to make sure no one gets bored waiting for the Biebs, Believe is scheduled warm-up acts of hits-list Carly Rae Jepsen and Cody Simpson regulars, with British boyband interest in joining the overseas dates.
"It starts the show before the show even begins," Chu says. "We had a film score composed as people take their seats, and there are other (pre-show) elements can not talk. When people come in, we want them to feel like they are on a ride at Disneyland. They will release the stresses of everyday life."
Chu said that Bieber, and initially will be discussed with an adult atmosphere of the show, "something serious, sharp and dark, but quickly decided that it sounded boring. Was to be a fun trip. Songs Justin take, and what the visual."
By all accounts, the trip can be a point of inflection in the incredible career of Justin, one that saw him vault from busking on the streets of Stratford, Ontario, in the arenas pitches.
"Business is up for Bieber, which means, it can spend money on what this trip the best ever," said Gary Bongiovanni, editor of Pollstar, which tracks the concert business.
"Justin at this point, Miley Cyrus, back when she was just white. But he has his work cut out for him," she says. "8-year-old girl in the crowd is so happy to see (Bieber) on the stage, but older fans are more tired concert and you know what looks good show. So will have to deliver."
Bieber desire to be "the new Michael, or at least the heir to Usher, it is not unrealistic, but it needs to take advantage of it now, because fame can be fleeting," said Ian Drew, editor of Us Weekly music. "The key to success is to build a bridge between the pop music sensation and musician he is. Saw he had talent in Never Say Never, so that has to come through."
AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips is bullish on the company, together with Bieber.
"I've learned to never bet against Justin," says Phillips. "He does a great job of growing up with the transition from pop idol mature young adult. New album set the tone, and this tour is the ratification of this growth. Created in the world of celebrities and stars creative, Justin is the last."
Leaving nothing to chance, Bieber has spent hours working on dance moves, picking up the guitar and its ability to make this route aerobic generates a new, senior crew of Beliebers.
"I love it when I hear:" I did not like JB, "because it means I get the new people," says Bieber. He added that it did not bother him that he did not win anything at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month, noting that it just got the competitive juices flowing.
"Our group is all attitude, if we lose, we have to work harder.'m So with a personal trainer every day.'m Practicing every day. I want people to see this tour and go," Wow, that was something we did not expect. '
