Justin Bieber gets birthday surprise on 'Ellen'

Justin Bieber gets birthday surprise on 'Ellen'


Justin Bieber gets birthday surprise on 'Ellen', Justin Bieber 18th Birthday  $100,000 electric car gift, Our little pop star is all grown up! Justin Bieber turns 18 today, and when he's not being gifted with a new ride, he's celebrating by giving back. Bieber revealed to fans earlier this week that his birthday plans included spending time with friends and family, "have a little get together, nothing too crazy."

But the lead-up to his 18th also included a stop by Ellen DeGeneres' show, where his manager, Scooter Braun, surprised him with a swanky, eco-friendly present.

"He does things for the right reasons," Braun says of Bieber, telling him, "You work really, really hard, and I always yell at you, don't get anything flashy, we're not about that, be humble. And I kind of broke my own rule."

And because Bieber loves cars, "We wanted to make sure you were environmentally friendly...and we decided to get you a car that would make you stand out a bit on the road. So Justin, that's a Fisker Karma. Usher and I wanted to do this for you, since you never do anything for yourself."

Ellen's contribution to Bieber's birthday gift? A lovely (and practical!) windshield sunshade bearing the image of a heart with her face and Justin's on it, and an Ellen bobble-head for his dashboard.

As he did last year, the singer is also aiming to raise money for Charity: Water, a non profit that provides clean drinking water in developing nations.

Bieber tweeted yesterday, "[I] want to use my bday to help others. if u want please donate $18 to @charitywater on my 18th bday!...[S]o blessed. so moved. so grateful. cant believe this is my life. never going to take it for granted. always going to give back. thank you."
