NBC showcases singer Justin Bieber?s global tour

MUMBAI: US broadcaster NBC will present the special ?Justin Bieber: All Around the World? over two nights, featuring singer Justin Bieber.

The special will air on 20 and 21 June.

Combining documentary and music performances, the superstar?s first-ever network special goes behind the scenes of his tour around the globe as he showcases his new album ?Believe? including the song ??Boyfriend?. It?s a grueling itinerary of nine cities in seven countries over 12 days, traveling over 16,000 miles and greeting over 500,000 fans.

After several impromptu concerts, album release parties, fan meet and greets and international TV appearances, Bieber will return to the U.S. for a special New York City performance. And for the first time, viewers can see what life is like through the eyes of Justin Bieber with the "Justin-cam."

NBC senior VP of special programmes and late night Doug Vaughan said,"The worldwide hysteria surrounding Justin?s album launch is unlike anything we?ve seen, and we?re thrilled to share it with our audience over two nights. With added stops in Italy and Mexico, we?ll have even more unprecedented access to Justin as our cameras film not only his performances, but his every move on this global tour."

?Believe? follows Bieber?s Christmas album, ?Under the Mistletoe?, which was his third number one Soundscan debut in just 18 months, making him the first solo artist in Billboard history to chart three number one albums before his 18th birthday.
