Justin Bieber overwhelmed by Forbes magazine 'Most Powerful' recognition

Teen sensation Justin Bieber has admitted that being included in Forbes magazine's 100 Most Powerful Celebrities list was an incredible honour.

The talented Canadian superstar featured on this year's list at No.3, beating the likes of Lady Gaga and Rihanna, and he even did a mature photoshoot with Forbes to mark the impressive position and move into maturity.

Speaking to Access Hollywood recently, 18-year-old Bieber explained that seeing as he's still very young it's overwhelming to be in the ranks of such influential personalities:

"It’s crazy. All I'm doing is singing and doing what I love. So to have that kind of recognition is great."
