Justin Bieber’s Manager Is Rich, Kind of a Genius

Lizzie Widdicombe’s New Yorker profile of Justin Bieber’s 31-year-old manager Scooter Braun has absolutely everything you want in a celebrity piece!

• There are great one liners! (“That skinny kid you just met is the most Googled person on the planet by like two hundred million hits.”)

• There are really fun details! (Most of Braun’s shirts come from Disney because “it’s non threatening.”)

• There is Bieber gossip! (“Bored, Bieber started a game, playfully jabbing everyone in the crotch with his fist.”)

Also, Justin Bieber makes $50 million a year, have a nice morning.
