USWeekly FLASHBACK! Justin Bieber sings for spare change in 2007. Also, Bieber gave some of his hair to Ellen Degeneres but his new wax figure is going to feature his old haircut. Here's a 3-year-old crying over him (sorry, embedding disabled by request of the mean older sister who filmed it).
UPDATE!: CityBeat has found a video even more embarrassing than the assholes who made the 3-year-old cry. Here's a home video of Justin Bieber singing "Happy Birthday" to a girl in a poorly lit family room.
UPDATE II!: That video's embedding was also disabled.
CityBeat will update this blog as videos of Justin Bieber available for reuse are found.
UPDATE III!: Justin Bieber went to the crying 3-year-old's house and met her! It's like a combination of the first video's awkwardness with the second one's production value. That Justin Bieber is so cute and charming!
