Justin Bieber appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show to interview not only with Oprah, but with one lucky fan taken from the audience. The Disney star and pop singer spoke with Oprah about what it's like getting in trouble with his mother. The question certainly humanized the young star, as he explained that his mother sometimes takes away his phone or computer for days at a time when he is bad. Later in the show, he performed his hit song "Baby."

After recording, Bieber tweeted about his experience on Oprah: "Just got to say that Oprah is real nice down to earth person. She even came back after the show to talk with everyone. She is incredible. And she made my grandpa cry. He went all water works in the crowd. Haha"

But for a talk show like Oprah's, whose tickets are given to women active in community service and other well-respected mediums, isn't it a bit of a downplay to fill the studio with screeching teen girls and a young pop star that, in comparison to Oprah's other guests, has nothing to say to the common viewer demographic?

That is, was Justin Bieber a poor choice for Oprah?

    No, Beiber is a really nice young man with a bright future ahead of him if he manages to 'keep it all togher' and not let all the fame and sceaming females go to his head. Oprah makes very wise choices and this is one of them.

    Although people dislike him for whatever reasons, he's still just a kid with some amazing talents that has had some amazing things happen to him. It might seem superficial but take a step back, if it wasn't "Justin Bieber" instead it was someone else but i the same sort of situation, would you still think the same?

    She does what se wants but you do not see her bringing the Jonas Brothers on there to tak with her and se does not have other disney stars on there so why should she bring HIM of all thhe singers on to hher show?

    Because he's ridiculously famous, and probably the most successful. Did you know he is the only artist in the history of music to have five top singles before ever releasing an album? And why is he Disney? I mean I don't actually know too much about the kid, I never knew he was Disney? In fact, I'm pretty darn sure he's not.

    Hes not a disney star. he was discovered by Usher and Justin sighned some deal. He is in no way tied to Disney. Thank god because it seems that, for Disney anyway, Hannah Montana is FINALY on the way out because she is gettin older. As for the question, Oprah wants to bring in someone who will get ratings and who better than some guy who is busting on to the scene nd his popularity is sky rocketing. It makes sence. Although I'm sick and tired of all these dang teenage pop singing clones. You cant get way from them. Turn on the t.v. their they are. Walk into a store they're faces are on EVERYTHING. listen to the radio "here is the lates song by (insert talentless singer here) its annoying as hell. I like real music such as 80's metal and classic country. the music industry only cares about looks now, NOT talent sence an awful voice will just be run through Auto-tune. Sorry for the rant

    to me, i don't really think he should be on there.............Like, at all. Maybe his actual fans think he should, and i mean, I love his music, but him? He is almost like a 12 year old!!! No offense to those who love love love him.......But really, my opinion is that he should wait until he is near 16 years old or more adult if he really wants to do that sorta thing
  • Liana Jennifer 2010/05/22 11:35:21

    He is 16. And why do you think Oprah should have an age limit now?

    Bottom line is Oprah goes for the ratings. Nothing more nothing less. For crying out loud the woman has interviewed serial killers from prison. I did see the show and although the young lady who served as her "co-host" is definitely a confidant young kid she was a bit annoying. Oprah's thinking must be that in order to keep the ratings high she must appeal to all age groups. Hey...just the opinion from someone who is NOT an Oprah fan.

    Oprah could find someone with ACTUAL talent, maybe show a new band that people havent heard of, or atleast people with TALENT.

    If Oprah can have Tom Cruise as a semi-credible guest, she can certainly have Justin Bieber.

    Lol. It wasn't that horrible, whatever haha

    Yeah, I watched a whole show on the "Oprah Effect" and how if Oprah likes something, like a specific cake from a privately owned little shop, then all of a sudden that place is the most popular place ever hahaha
