getting ready to go down.

Just so you know, we're in the studio

right now working on it.

Get ready because it's gonna be big.

- Ain't that right, Justin?

- That's right.

That's right. So, look out, we're coming.

Doing it once again, now.

Check it. We gonna do it like,

when I say, "Justin", y'all say "Bieber!"

- Justin!

- Bieber!

- Justin!

- Bieber!

When I say, "One", y'all say, Time!

- One!

- Time!

- One!

- Time!

I said, "That song, One Time,

that should be the first single.

"'Cause I think it's up-tempo,

it'll get the kids excited."

June 2009,

Justin was playing at a water park in

Poughkeepsie, New York, for 40 people.

It was raining at the water park,

by the way. Pouring rain.

Antonio was dancing-

Marvin was dancing-

Tay was deejaying.

Dan was playing guitar.

And me and Ryan.

I mean, it went naturally.

But naturally doesn't mean easy.

There's work that goes into that.

And you have to do the footwork.

"In radio, we don't play a young kid.

"Fifteen years old,

he's got a young voice.

"That's not our thing."

Everybody, come on.

They didn't understand it.

Hand-to-hand combat is what we did.

We put Justin in a van and on airplanes.

And that kid, planes, trains

and automobiles.

- Q102, live in the studio, Justin Bieber

- What's up, guys?

AH the hits-

Is this being played

anywhere else in the country right now?

Justin, what are you going to

sing for us right now?

I'm gonna sing One Time acoustically.

You guys have heard of the track?

One Time. It's an acoustic version.

He went to every single one.

If you weren't playing his record,

he still went.

And he'd play his guitar for you acoustic

and he'd sing, on the spot, any request.

And he won people over.

- Wow.

- That was nice, man.

- Justin Bieber, do not forget us, bro!

- I won't.

There's not a deejay that can say

they have not met Justin Bieber.

Waking up early, going to radio stations,

meeting with...

You know, it's just adults.

Everything is just adults.

I'm so excited to go to Hartford.

He started twittering.

"I'm gonna be at this radio station.

I'm gonna be at this radio station."

First 20 kids, then 40 kids,

then 100 kids.

Then a couple of hundred kids started

lining up outside of these radio stations

to just get a glimpse of him.

And they started to play his record.

Justin, Justin, Justin!

Chaos at Roosevelt Field Mall today.

The crowd was so huge

local police are on hand

trying to control this crowd.

I think at that point no one realized how

powerful social networking was or is.

Oh, my God!

Who caused this? Justin Bieber?

That kid with the hair and that can sing?

He caused this whole huge thing?

Justin's fans are the most

loyal group of girls on the planet.

They all feel a certain ownership

over him

because they feel like they found him

before Scooter found him,

before the record labels found him.

He belongs to them.

They're there for him.

God, I've never seen fans like this.

What is it you guys love so much

about Justin Bieber?

I like his songs.

I like his songs.

I like how he looks.

- His eyes. They're so cute.

- Just...

And his little smile and his laugh.

His laugh is so cute.

- His laugh?

- We're obsessed with that.

- What's it like?

- He's like... That's so cute.

I like the way how he smiles.

His hair, I love his hair.

Flip, like, every five minutes.

Yeah, I love his hair.

The hair, it's perfect.

I could rock his hairdo, but I want to see

him rock some of these one time

so he could step his game up.

So, Justin,

get you some pigtails, man,

you know what I'm talking about,

with accessories on the ends

so the girls can play with your hair, man.

That's another tool you'll be able to use.

- Do not eat that.

- I put them there! See?

- That's disgusting!

- You are a gross monkey.

That is the grossest thing

I've ever seen.

I put them there.

It doesn't matter

who put them in the garbage.

They were still in the garbage.

So, we got the stuff,

we gotta get it out of here now

'cause the cops are going to

sneak him out.

In our business, what happened

with Justin Bieber

has never happened before.

Truly a phenomenon.

Even groups like NSYNC

and the Backstreet Boys took years.

But already over a million copies have

been ordered in the United States alone.

I was honestly blown away by his talent.

It's called My World 2.0 and it's

the number one album in the country.

You guys know Justin Bieber?

Justin is now in that

rarefied atmosphere-

All these giant artists

who sell out arenas

every two or three years

when they go on tour,

well, Justin's one of them now.

He's become a member of that club.

I mean, look at him.

He's like a dreamy Christmas elf

On his first record,

in his first year and a half,

I don't believe

that's ever happened before.

Justin!

I want to marry Justin Bieber.

We will be husband and wife.

Bieber Fever. It is a pandemic-

Thousands of screaming teens!

Around the world, girls are losing it.

In Sydney, scenes that weren't

that far off Beatlemania.

...Justin and Justin...

Justin Bieber's visit to town

is actually good news.

Police have called off the event

because of safety concerns.

Bieber is in town.

It's a hysteria

that I've never witnessed before.

This is what happened with

The Beatles and The Monkees.

The ultimate in our business

is becoming an arena headliner,

being able to sell out

Madison Square Garden.

Madison Square Garden represents

the pinnacle of success for an artist.

The Rolling Stones. U2.

Michael Jackson. This is the big time.

And for this kid

to play Madison Square Garden

and he's the headliner?

Give me a break. Come on.

This just doesn't happen.

Come on! Say, yeah!

JB, you are. Yeah, man.

- All right! Hey! Hey!

- Hey!

Stop the movie! You, down there!

- Texting? Texting!

- Stop texting.

Sleeping? Making out back there? Hey!

- Enough!

- Enough is enough.

- Cut that!

- Cut it.

- Bring it back.

- Let's go!

Do you guys have tickets to the show?

- You don't have any tickets?

- We don't.

- Are you big fans?

- This girl is obsessed.

- This is all she does, is Justin Bieber.

- Really?

- What's your favorite song?

- Sing it.

Yeah, sing.

We usually have 10, 20 tickets left.

And we go out, we talk to kids,

talk to families and hear their stories.

It's like me and the guy

from Extreme Home Makeover

have the best jobs in the world.

'Cause we get paid

to just make other people happy.

You guys going to the concert?

You guys have tickets to the show?

Everybody's got tickets?

We give them free tickets,

and they're usually in the first 10 rows.

The best price.

Nobody can beat my prices.

I'm the corny one.

I call it, like, "We got to give back."

Section 108, Row 8.

You're choking me!

Thank you.

If it wasn't for these kids out there

camping out and doing what they do,

we don't have jobs.

- Oh, great!

- They're real close.

- Give her a hug!

- Thank you.

Thank you so much. You don't even
