Celebrity's Relative

The Resume

    (April 2, 1976- )
    Born in Ontario, Canada
    Justin Bieber's mother
    Author of autobiography 'Nowhere But Up' (Published September 12, 2012)
    Appeared on the Today Show to promote her book

Why she might be annoying:

    As a younger teen, she financed her drug and alcohol problem with drug dealing and petty crimes.
    She gave birth to Justin when she was 18 years old.
    She almost named her son Jessie - Jessie Bieber?- and kept referring to him as 'Jessie' throughout her pregnancy.
    She looks like a cross between Felicity Huffman and Catherine Keener (with a little Alanis Morissette thrown in).
    She has a Twitter page that is followed by one million people (as of fall 2012).

Why she might not be annoying:

    As a child, she suffered sexual abuse beginning at the age of four by a male babysitter, then a friend's grandfather.
    The shame from the sexual abuse became the root of problems down the road including drug and alcohol abuse at 14, then a suicide attempt at 15.
    She tried to kill herself by throwing herself onto the path of a truck but the truck swerved to avoid hitting her; afterward, she became institutionalized.
    Family members urged her to have an abortion when she became pregnant at 17 but she chose not to.
    She maintained her tie with Bieber's father to keep him in his son's life.
    She went from being a high school drop out to earning a degree.
    She noticed her young son had singing talent and began recording his performances on YouTube so that Bieber's grandmother could see them.
    A musical industry manager stumbled upon one of the videos then contacted Mallette.
    Bieber referred to her has the strongest woman he's ever known.
