The 19-year-old superstar broke the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s record this weekend by granting his 200th wish. The adorable recipient was 8-year-old Annalysha Brown-Rafanan, who is suffering from a life-threatening liver condition.

He’s usually charitable after getting bad press. Lots of wishes being granted lately. LOL Keep being bad, Justin! LOL
Odd.
Just last summer, the Make a Wish people were touting WWE wrestler John Cena for being the first person to grant 300 wishes. So how can Bieber now hold the record with just 200?
Yeah a lot of people bash this kid and for what I do not know. Is he a Disney created idol who makes fans with the kids then turns around and does hard drugs? No. Tells them to dress like sluts? No, How many times have we seen Disney pull that? Countless times so I got no beef with this kid. Not my kind of music, but he should make that money while he can before the libs take it away.
I am in total agreement with you. I actually like some of his music.........yeah, I know, but please understand — I’m the mother of a 15yo daughter who went thru a MAJOR Bieber fever phase!
Was thinking the same thing. I also believe Hulk Hogan went over 200. Make A Wish has always touted that the pro wrestlers as a group were the most requested by the kids.

Cena over 300 by now.
When Cena made his 300th wish, I seem to recall the Make A Wish Foundation reporting that the only other celebrities to make at least 200 wishes were Hogan, Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt, Jr.
Bieber may have joined their company, but I don’t think he has the record, especially since Cena has continued to be active with Make a Wish.
Good on him. :)
So they are Beliebers? lol
Can not honestly say that I am a big fan, and having seen him successfully portray ditz characters for so long I have some difficulty accepting anything “serious” coming from his direction. Still, the Make-a-Wish foundation is a worthwhile charity and organization in My book, so I honestly grant him lots of good points in doing something wonderful for truly needy children. I could wish that he had selected some other organizations as well that I like greatly, but honestly he has done quite a bit with what contributions I have heard about so, go get ‘em, kid!
I think his young age success should be an incentive for other young people. He did it himself (yes, I am aware of his mother’s role) and earned what he has and has become. My daughter is still a fan, just not as ardent as previously.
Yup!!!!
About a week ago he was spitting on his fans from his hotel balcony. A couple weeks ago he urinated in a mop bucket in a restaurant kitchen. Also about a week ago his thugs beat some guy leaving him lying in the street.
That's just very recent items, he's heading down a long hard road if his Mom doesn't get him back on track.
Here’s one thing to think about with Bieber and Hogan and Cena and others who do this consistently. Each of these kids must impact their lives a little bit. And in some quiet moment of thinking about the kids they’ve seen, they know that most of the kids they’ve seen in the past are now passed on. That has to be tough. It just makes it more impressive that they continue to do the work they do.
Shame he wears this pant down around his knees with his under ware showing.
