The mother of pop star, Justin Bieber, has retained an attorney to represent her interests in her son's booming career. It is being said she feels cut out of decisions being made, which is typical of many major record labels. I've seen quite a few young artists come and go, unable to navigate the treacherous waters of fame and finance. 

Bieber's manager is signing far too many deals, overexposing the young singer and exposing him to public ridicule, as he has a line of merchandising certain to send him down the path the New Kids On The Block went in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They are going to make him a mockery at the rate they are proceeding, slapping the boy's name on everything from sheets to nail polish. Do remember, he is a young man. 

Furthermore, it is not that the lad has no talent, as he can sing and dance. But when businesspeople begin exploiting entertainers, especially young ones, it always leads to trouble and heartbreak.

Fame maybe fun at first, but when people are being overworked and taken advantage of for social and financial gain, with no safeguards in place to protect them, it can become destructive. This is something most entertainers are not mentally, emotionally or physically prepared for in any manner.
