Scooter Braun praises Justin Bieber: 'He becomes more of a man each day'

The manager of Justin Bieber, Scooter Braun, has praised the Canadian superstar for learning from his mistakes and owning up to them publicly.

Earlier this month, the superstar apologised for his arrogance and released a video in which he said sorry for causing trouble over the past few years. Speaking to Complex magazine recently, Braun explained that it takes a lot of courage and strength to own up to the bad things you've done and he's proud of how Bieber has been handling the situation:

"He becomes more and more of a man each day, the challenge for him is learning who he is. He's in such an incredible place right now, and he's excited to share where he is with the world next year. It will shock some people and make others really happy. He's ready to step up and be the man people want him to be, and he got there on his own time, like all of us did."

"Things get overblown, but sometimes he makes mistakes... Sometimes it's frustrating because you think, 'I could've avoided that' or 'I could've helped you get through that,' but then you realise that you are the person you are because you went through it, and they need the opportunity to go through it too... I'm not interested in the mistakes that people make. I'm interested in how they react to them. That's what defines us as adults."
