My World- 2.0
While Justin was hit with all this fame, he started working on his second album, My World 2.0. "Baby" the lead single on his album was released in January 2010. It charted at #5 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Two other singles "Never Let You Go" and "U Smile", were top 30 hits on the US Hot 100, and top twenty hits in Canada. My World 2.0 also debuted at number one on the Canadian Album Chart, Irish Album Chart, Australian Albums Chart, and New Zealand Albums Chart and was in the top 10 in 15 other countries. Justin appeared on The View, 2010 Kids Choice Awards, Nightline, Late Show with David Letterman, The Dome, and 106 and Park. Justin began recording his second album in July 2010 in NYC. At this point, his voice was deeper than it was when he recorded his first album. Justin couldn't hit all of the high notes in "Baby" so they had to change them around.
A 3-D part biopic, part-concert film starring Justin Bieber entitled Justin Bieber: Never Say Never was released on February 11, 2011. It topped the box office with a gross of $12.4 million on its opening day from 3,105 theaters. Never Say Never reportedly exceeded industry expectations nearly matching the Hannah Montana Movie. The more publicity, the more fans this teen heart throb would get.
