We celebrate Bieber’s birthday on 1^st March this year.

If you want to get a slice of what a Justin Biber concert is like, check out his DVD that promises 90 minutes of the then 19-year-old star as he embarks on his Believe Tour in support for his third album ‘Believe’. Chu who directs his second DVD with Bieber, takes a tangent completely different from his earlier flick ‘Never Say Never’. The director who is also famous for his the ‘Step Up’series, gives fans an inside view of the star’s rise to fame.

Even if you're not a fan, you'll be impressed, by Bieber’s his sheer showmanship and dedication to what he believes in. Besides a lot of concert footage, interrupted by endless testimonials by fans to his concert, most of them by adolescent or prepubescent girls, to one young man who proudly shows off the tattoo of the star’s face on his thigh, you also get to see the hysterical screams of fans who receive concert tickets as gifts, and endless close-ups of adoring fans breaking into tears while watching him perform.

You also get a behind the scenes shots of the star who shares his story of his rise to fame,dealing with minor publicity debacles, to run in with a British paparazzoand a sequence shot from inside his limo while it’s being besieged by swarming young fans, which is pretty scary.We also get to hear it from his JB’s career-long manager Scooter Braun,who talks at length about why Bieber is a true musician, a songwriter, a vocalist, and a multi-instrumentalist.We also get to watch interviews with tour choreographer Nick De Moura and his crew as they audition for dancers for the show. Growing up means growing facial hair and a moustache. How does Bieber handlethis. In a fun way he talks about this stage of growing up. Bieber also gives out a statement on his look at life, obeying his parents at all times and still loving and caring for them. His mom and dad add to the fun as they talk about their son.

Very touching is Bieber getting emotional and going out of his way in meeting up with a six-year-old 6-year-old fan, Avalanna Routh suffering from a fatal disease (the film is dedicated to her). Bieber even brings her on stage at NYC’s Apollo Theater for a brief moment and later paying tribute to her after she died.

This is definitely something Biebliers cannot afford to miss.
