Justin Bieber Reveals His Inner Circle, Dishes On Making Money Off Of The ‘Haters’

Justin Bieber is a global superstar, but his cell phone doesn’t ring off the hook.

“Literally, my phone never rings,” Justin told Teen Vogue, which features the pop sensation on its new cover (of which there are two options). “I only have, like, four people that I keep in contact with. I don’t need a bunch of friends to make me happy. I just need the people close to me that I love, that’s all.”

For fans wondering who made Justin’s nearest and dearest list, the list includes his mom and dad, as well as a couple of pals back home and rapper Lil Twist.

“Twist is my best friend,” Justin told the mag. “They don’t see me as Justin Bieber, but just see me as Justin.”

Justin knows his fans are there for him on Twitter.

“My Twitter is really nice. I have so many fans that I rarely ever see a nasty Tweet,” he said.

But on YouTube? That’s another story.

“I don’t read YouTube comments because those can get you sad,” he told the mag.

There is, however, a silver lining.

“Every time a hater visits my YouTube page, I get, like, four cents. So tell the haters to keep hating, keep commenting, because I’m making money,” Justin said.
