Let me preface this blog by saying that I've always had Beiber Fever. I remember driving in my former car one night and heard a new, catchy song and I thought to myself, who on earth is this kid? I was instantly hooked and have been ever since!
On Tuesday night, I went to the Justin Bieber concert here in Madrid. The kids all knew I was going. Some co-workers had told me that they announced on the radio that people had been camping out in front of the venue for a week, just so they could be first in line. Now don't get me wrong, I love Justin Bieber, but come on people, I'm 25 years old! I don't have the time or energy that these 13 year olds have. But then again, when I was 13, I was never infatuated with the boy bands. I liked them, don't get me wrong, but I was smart enough to know that it was pointless to fall in love with them. I guess you could say that I've always been a logical person. Anyways, we arrived at the Palacio de Deportes around 6:40 and the place was absolutely insane! These girls are serious! They were showing up with JB painted on their shirts and faces. Some had roses. And the line was wrapped around two blocks!
It was really funny observing everyone. Once we got inside, I saw this one girl who had to be all of 14 years old, in tears. When they posted a 15-minute countdown on the screens, the place erupted. I have to admit, I was pretty excited myself. Especially to hear a few of his songs! And he is a little cutie. There were a few moments that stood out in my head more than others. First of all, all of the girls kept saying his name like Justine. And I was cracking up, because that's a girl's name. I don't even think they understood what he was singing, but they knew the words. Even a little five year old girl was singing! Secondly, he took off his jacket at one point, only to reveal a purple and silver t-shirt. You would have thought it was the Chippendales performing. Those teeny boppers went nuts. Best part of the whole night, however, was that the concert was over around 9:50 pm. Early enough for all of the kids to get in bed at a reasonable hour!
I'm glad I went and it was a really good concert. In the meantime, I'll be anxiously awaiting his new album. And Beyonce's upcoming album. (I'm waiting on her to come to Madrid!)
