Justin Bieber's manager says he is ready "to be the man people want him to be."

Scooter Braun, who discovered the 'Boyfriend' hitmaker on YouTube in 2007, claims the 20-year-old singer has turned his life around and insists his wild behaviour, which has included wild partying, driving offences and egging a neighbour's house over the past few years, is a thing of the past.
He said: "He's in such an incredible place right now, and he's excited to share where he is.
"It will shock some people and make others really happy. He's ready to step up and be the man people want him to be, and he got there on his own time, like all of us did."
Bruan says the 'Believe' hitmaker is getting more mature every day, but is still figuring out who he is.
He told Complex magazine: "As he becomes more and more of a man each day, the challenge for him is learning who he is."
Despite admitting he found some of Justin's mistakes "frustrating," the talent manager, who also oversees Ariana Grande's career, has completely forgiven him.
He said: "I'm not interested in the mistakes that people make. I'm interested in how they react to them. That's what defines us as adults. Being young, like Ariana and Justin are, they will have opportunities to fall, and they will be defined by how they rise."
