OK
So we have these huge big international corporations providing us with the groundbreaking definitions of music in our generation.
And they give us this.........
Surely he isn't there for his music alone.
I mean "Beiber Fever", and with so much merchandise. Wouldn't he be walking revenue?
He sells Pimple Cream
Movies
C.D.'s
Magazines
T Shirts
Napkins
Table Covers
Pants
Trading Cards
The list will go on....
They've obviously stopped earring money with music, or are clutching at straws to stay afloat.
Also something interesting is there's nothing about how much he gets paid on the Internet.
Like the record company Island Records really wants it in the dark. I am sure he gets enough to be more than happy. But it is a standard to have artist's paid a 5% commission.
Though I'm not sure Beiber is thinking of all these things when he's very originally selling us Pimple problem solutions.
(And for a laugh) Here's Beibes merchandise store.

It was good you had the link as well, it shows us exactly what you're talking about。

P.S. Please forgive my font, it's playing up！
It's so funny how someone can become famous and announce a world tour including New Zealand when you haven't even heard of them singing one of their songs.It's probably got something to do with the distance between Canada and NZ (word takes a while to get around). Please someone make the nightmares stop.
ReplyDeleteIf I use the pimple cream on the Beiber, will it remove him ? I laughed so hard on his store.
Please leave your nice comment on my blog :)
