Because the world isn’t quite sick of Justin Bieber and his weird-ass Lego hair just yet, guess who’s getting his own biopic? In 3D? Directed by the Academy Award winning director of An Inconvenient Truth? Seriously, you might want to stay away from sharp object or high cliffs for the rest of the day.
Paramount Pictures has made a deal to turn Justin Bieber’s life story into a 3D feature biopic. Davis Guggenheim, the Oscar-winning director of An Inconvenient Truth, is negotiating to direct. The film doesn’t have a title, but Bieber will play himself in the film. The pic will be sprinkled with performances from his current concert tour. The film will come out February 11, 2011 on Valentine’s Day weekend. SOURCE
But the sheer, unadulterated stupidity fun doesn’t stop there! For those of you who want something a little more high-class, Justin is also going to be releasing his own autobiography. I’m assuming it’ll be like Eat Pray Love, only it’ll be called Autotune Hair Profit.
The 16 year-old pop singer has signed a deal with HarperCollins to publish an illustrated memoir titled Justin Bieber: First Step 2 Forever: My Story, the publisher said in a statement on Monday. The book is due out in October in both the United States and United Kingdom. SOURCE
Oh dear … These people do realize that by the time these books and movies come out, all the little girls will have moved onto someone else, right? Remember High School Musical? The Jonas Brothers? Seriously, little girls have the attention spans of goldfish. Goldfish with daddy issues and a complete lack of reality, but goldfish nonetheless.
