Canadian superstar Justin Bieber has made it into TIME magazine's annual 100 most influential people list. 

The 'Baby' hitmaker, who is only 17-years-old, sits amongst some of the most famous names of this generation including actor Colin Firth, Oprah Winfrey and U.S President Barack Obama. Bieber, despite his youth, has enjoyed incredible success and has close to 9 million followers on Twitter, recently released his debut live-performance movie and has shattered chart records. 

When asked who he thought deserved a place on the prestigious list, he had a simple answer:

"[It] has got to be Charlie Sheen. He's got a million followers in one day on twitter. I've never seen that happen before. Plus, he's got tiger blood, and he's always winning."

The talented musician and performer is currently on tour in Malaysia, but you can watch his opening segment from this year's Juno Awards here:
