Oh, Biebs. You were supposed to not get so cute as you got older, or get a sexy voice similar to[lastfm link_type="artist_info"] Usher[/lastfm]‘s. You were supposed to stay a mop-haired little boy forever. Sigh.

(Un)fortunately, you’ve matured into quite the young man, [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Justin Bieber[/lastfm], and your cover of [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Lil Wayne[/lastfm]‘s “How To Love” just got you a spot in our top five crush-worthy pop stars list.

Maybe Bieber is amping up for releasing his Christmas album on November 1st; maybe he is just showing off his grown-up rapping skills. Whatever tactic the Biebs is taking, we totally approve.

Haters gonna hate, but let’s see them not ruin Weezy.

doubt us…i like it that way…makes us work harder…just makes us want to prove you wrong. every step we've been doubted. why change now—
