A child star is a person of a younger age who becomes famous. Many times these young stars become famous for their acting, singing, and dancing abilities or a combination of the three. An example of a child-star in today’s time is Justin Bieber. Justin was discovered and instantly became famous. The question though, is what does the future hold for this young man? Will he continue to be the positive role model that he is aspiring to be for all of his fans, or will the popularity and fame get the best of him? Although many people believe that Justin Beiber will fail like many other child stars in the past, I have reason to believe that he will become successful like his mentor Usher.

They both use their money earned from their careers in similar and different ways. Usher uses some of his money for different charities and organizations including; LIFEbeat, The New Look Foundation, and The Gentleman’s Fund (Look to the Stars). He challenges kids to give back to their communities and help hurting countries like Haiti struggling from natural disasters. Usher uses his money for the good of others. He on more than one occasion has donated money back into his hometown community. Justin Beiber has also found ways to use his money for the good of others. Justin is a part of Ushers The New Look Foundation as well as Pencils of Promise to help children who need an education. (Look to the Stars).

He is also providing a chance for a young man (Beiber) to chase his dream and possibly follow in his successful footsteps. Usher is showing Justin the way. By mentoring Justin, Usher can offer advice on what worked for him and reasons as to why he is so successful today. Usher can also show Justin how to handle certain situations that could eventually get Beiber into trouble. Justin Beiber is continuing to produce number one singles that are continuing to wow preteen and teen girls today. Justin said in his biography that he is looking forward to influencing others in a positive way, that you can do anything if you put your mind to it (aceshowbiz). Justin beiber is at the start of his career, and with a big mistake his singing career could be put into jeopardy. My belief is that Usher is being a positive role model and showing him the right ways to handle situations. Usher has already begun and still continues to leave his legacy today. He continues to stay on the right track with his career by being smart with his decisions. For instance, his money and
