Justin Bieber's Mom Has to Approve His Girlfriends

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez showed up arm-in-arm at the Vanity Fair Oscar party on Sunday, going public with a relationship his fans had known about since early January. The singer has said he wouldn’t want to enter a relationship with a “bad girl” because he knows his mom Pattie Mallette wouldn’t welcome her into their home.

He said: “I wouldn’t bring home a girl unless my mom would approve. You don’t bring the bad girls home to mom.”

The Never Say Never star -- who celebrated his 17th birthday Tuesday -- also admitted he has no preference about the age of the girls he dates. Asked if he likes older women, he said in an interview with a Sirius XM radio station: “I’m into women in general.”

Justin also spoke about his influences and inspirations, insisting there is no one star whose career he wants to mimic.

He added: “I don’t think I want to emulate anyone’s career. But just take different bits and pieces from different people. Definitely Michael Jackson, and lately I’ve been really studying Fred Astaire.”
