If anything is evident from watching Justin Bieber's 3-D movie, "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never," it's that Bieber is just a small-town kid who lived up to the hype and managed to rise to superstardom.
"Never Say Never" not only chronicles the star's rise to fame but also focuses on the work he put into his Madison Square Garden show last September. When MTV News spoke to the star at the film's NYC premiere, he admitted that even he's sometimes astounded by how far he's come.
"It's been crazy," he said. "This whole experience has been amazing and I definitely have to stop and just thank God sometimes and be like, 'You know, it's amazing.' "
Before he was whisked off the red carpet, the singer also dished on what he loves most these days about his crazy life. "The best thing about being Justin is just I get to perform for my beautiful fans every night," he shared.
And his fans are very important to him. He thanked his Beliebers at the screening, letting them know how much he appreciated all the support they've given him.
"I'm feeling good," Bieber added. "It's great to be here. All my fans have been really supportive, so I'm really glad to be playing them my movie. ... Fans will be really excited to see that I'm just a regular 16-year-old having fun just living my dream. And it's possible for anyone to live theirs."
The movie is part concert film, part documentary and includes interviews from some of the people closest to the teen phenom. It also features cameos from Miley Cyrus, Usher and Ludacris, to name a few.

Jillian Michaels: I'm Trying to Adopt a Baby from Africa
Jillian Michaels has announced that she's leaving The Biggest Loser and moving on to another big venture.
"I want to start a family," the trainer told Access Hollywood on Saturday. "I'd like to take a year off of television and really focus on – I'm in the middle of the adoption process – and really focus on that and hopefully becoming a mother in the next year and putting all my energy into that for awhile."
Michaels says she plans to return to TV in 2012 but, before that, she's working through the adoption process, which she calls "an incredible undertaking."
"I've completed all of my paperwork; I've had all my physicals; I've been checked by the FBI – you have no idea!," Michaels said. "Now I wait for a referral. That could be anywhere from six months to a year. I’m in a pilot program for the Democratic Republic of Congo so we’ll see. Then you get your referral and then you have to try to bring your kid back home," she continued. "So, it’s a process… but I'm excited for it!"
As for her child's gender, Michaels says she "doesn't matter," and that her mind and body are just ready.
"I'm 36! Do you hear the clock? It doesn’t matter!" she laughed. "As long as there’s a little teeny person with me, I'll be good."

Shia LaBeouf Handcuffed by Police After Bar Fight
Shia LaBeouf, with his sweet puppy-dog face, may look nice and harmless -- but like the Transformers, there's more to him than meets the eye! The Transformers star, 24, ended up in handcuffs early Sunday morning after he got involved in a brawl at a Los Angeles bar.
According to RadarOnline, LaBeouf and an entourage of 14 friends (yes, 14) were spending Saturday night at the popular watering hole Mad Bull's Tavern. Witnesses say that around 1 a.m., LaBeouf began having a loud argument with another patron on the patio in front of the bar. Words were exchanged, and the other guy, identified as college student Mark Mastro, taunted LaBeouf with a gay slur. Then things got physical.
"Shia then lunged, but the other guy got the first punch in," a witness told the website. "He hit Shia hard in the face and split his lip. I saw him get hit, everyone did."
Mastro tells RadarOnline that LaBeouf was rude to him twice that night -- once when he tried to get a picture with him and a second time when LaBeouf was leaving the bar. Mastro admits to using the gay slur, but says it was LaBeouf who started the fight.
"He charged at me," claims Mastro. "I jumped over the patio fence onto the sidewalk to get away from him. But he kept coming after me. He was getting in my face. He was talking sh**. He was chest-bumping me. A bouncer put Shia in a headlock."
A police officer happened to be passing by when the fight started, so he immediately intervened and called for backup. LaBeouf was handcuffed in front of a parking lot full of police cars and gawking patrons (there's a camera phone video here). The star was questioned and let go, while Mastro simply walked away from the bar without being questioned by police. Nobody was arrested.
This isn't the first time that LaBeouf's drinking has gotten him in trouble with the law. He was charged with a DUI in 2008, and arrested the year before for drunkenly refusing to leave a Walgreens. It sounds like the other guy in this fight wasn't blameless, but the fact that the cops showed up should be a warning to Shia: It's a slippery slope from here to Charlie Sheen territory.
