Justin Bieber: “I Like To Be In Control Of Myself”

In a humorous and candid look at a reporter’s view on interviewing Justin Bieber - GQ has published an article as well as a photo spread on the 18-year-old pop star in the June issue.

Most of the time the writer Drew Magary is waiting for Justin to just show up for the interview – which is scheduled at the recording studio. When he does get one-on-one time with Justin – he appears guarded but does reply to a few of the questions.

When asked if he’s ever drunk to the extreme – he says, “For me, it’s just like, I like to be in control of myself. I mean, I’ve had a beer, like, before…. But I never get out of control.”

His manager Scooter Braun later responded, “He knows that I hold him to a high standard…. He doesn’t want to blow it.”

As with fame there comes being careful on who Justin hangs out with.

He says, “I mean, I keep my guard up a lot, because you know, you can’t trust anyone in this business. That’s what’s sad. You can’t trust anybody. I learned the hard way.”

Leighton Meester Focusing On Music As ‘Gossip Girl’ Ends

Leighton Meester is concentrating on music now! Since Gossip Girl will air its sixth and final season this fall – the 25-year-old can now focus on performing her own tunes.

She’s already re-located to California – explaining that they don’t have to shoot more scenes until July.

She tells Wetpaint,  “We don’t go back to New York until July, and we only have four months of shooting [Season 6] so [...] it’s kind of a good thing and a bad thing. I’m excited to for it to end because I’m ready for a new chapter […],  and at the same time, the thing I’ll miss the most is the people that I work with. Everyone’s like family — the crew [and] everyone that we work with every day in New York.”

Her first tour kicks off May 29 and she’ll be playing with her band and longtime pals Check in the Dark, whom she calls her “musical soul mates.”

Music is her passion as she compares it to acting.

“[Playing Blair] is intense, but music is intense in a different way [and] in a very personal way. When I play a character, it’s pretty much the exact opposite. I mean, I do find parts of the character in myself — and it’s absolutely rewarding to be able to draw from experiences of my own, but the music is my experience. It’s what I’m feeling in that moment. I feel like the songs I’ve written these past couple years, that we’re going to be performing [on the tour], they really are an expression of how I felt [at that moment] [...]. It’s completely different [than acting], it’s a different art form — and I’m really, really glad that I have it  because it’s part of what keeps me sane — if I can call myself that.”

Kristen Stewart and the rest of her co-stars walked the red carpet at the Madrid premiere of Snow White And The Huntsman on Thursday (May 17). She looked charming in a short BCBG Max Azria dress and Christian Louboutin shoes. Charlize Theron is noticeably very tall standing next to the 22-year-old.

After doing press for this movie – the actress will be working on a new project called Cali. Speaking to MTV about it – Kristen says she’s getting her first producer credit as well as starring in the film.

“Hopefully after all of this we can go and we can do it in the summer, like lock ourselves away for a few weeks in the Valley [in L.A.] in a little production office and get together really weird, freaky actor people. It’s filled with like the coolest characters.”

Stewart plays Mya who sells a fake snuff film and runs off with her boyfriend and the money. Thought to be dead, Maya has to return to Cali years later to save the younger sister she left behind.

She explains, “I’m from the Valley. It’s been a while since we captured that world and it’s super extreme, everything about it. I think it’s like, it’s extremely violent, it’s extremely funny, extremely emotional. But all very kind of, not hard to watch, but real.”
