We know he has won countless awards for his record-breaking music career, but now Justin Bieber has earned an award of another kind.
On Monday (May 14) it was announced that the Biebs will take home the 2012 Elizabeth Taylor Fragrance Celebrity of the Year Award, which honors one lucky celebrity who has embraced and promoted the world of fragrance.
n other news, the teen sensation is also in the running for the luxe women gong against other fellow celeb Beyonce Knowles for her frangrance “Pulse” as well as Bottega Veneta, Prada Candy and Tom Ford Violet Blonde.
The ceremony, which has been held annually since 1973, will take place in New York City on May 21 with “Glee” actress Jane Lynch taking the stage as host for the evening.

The “One Less Lonely Girl” singer confessed that while he is all about taking risks with his new music, he doesn’t want to put anyone off by going too far.
“I don’t want to lose my young fans, but I also want to mature and develop. I always keep one foot out of my comfort zone, trying new things and experimenting – if you don’t, people will get bored. Seeing the smiles on people’s faces and how I affect them when I perform makes me want to give them the absolute best experience they can possibly get.
Meanwhile, Usher gave Bieber props for his flowing skills. “He’s always been a dope MC. C’mon. Easy. ‘Boyfriend‘ was really the defining moment; it became No. 1 everywhere, which is what dreams are made of. Both of us are being modest about what our journeys have been in terms of songwriting: Justin really has participated in every writing session -that’s amazing. It’s easy to just dial something in, but if you make the music authentic, people feel connected to you as an artist from the beginning.”
And Justin returned the favor, sharing that he’s really benefitted from Usher’s mentoring. “What’s great is that in Usher, I have a mentor that’s been doing it so long and has been successful in everything that he’s done. He’s made some mistakes, too, but he’s learned from them, so he can tell me what to do and what not to do.”

Sure, he has more money than he knows how to spend, and a super hot celebrity girlfriend, but Justin Bieber also wants to make sure he’s well-educated.
The “One Less Lonely Girl” singer has reportedly finished high school and received his diploma despite his crazy schedule.
Bieber told press, “I passed my test- I’m free! It was hard doing school and work every day,” of his accomplishment.
Justin also noted that his mom Pattie Mallette had something to do with it. “That was something my mom really wanted me to do, so I had to do it for her. I mean, this kind of lifestyle has given me a different perspective on life.”
“I’ve been able to travel the world. At school, usually you have to do a lot of writing and reading. I’m really not into that stuff. I like to be out there.”
