Justin Bieber has praised the positive impact the internet has had on his career.

The 20-year-old found fame through YouTube videos and he is one of the most popular users on Twitter.

Speaking in a new interview with fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld for V Magazine, Bieber said his life would be different without the net.

He said: "The internet has been a huge part of my career. I was discovered on YouTube. I use Twitter, Instagram, Shots, and Fahlo to communicate with my fans on a daily basis.

"Things would be totally different without it. I definitely wouldn’t be able to have the personal relationship I have with my fans without social media."

When asked meanwhile about the first time he felt like he had become a success, Bieber said:

"I performed at a water park in New York at the very beginning of my career and thousands of girls showed up to see me in the rain."
