Eight years ago, Justin Bieber released his big screen concert-documentary, Never Say Never, just a few years after he was signed by Scooter Braun. Flash forward to 2019 and the film has reached its eight-year milestone.
On Monday (February 11), the pop titan's manager took to Instagram to commemorate the release with his 2.9 million followers, sharing the cover art of the film with the caption: "8 years ago today we released this movie to the world. #neversaynever @justinbieber @jonmchu." Aside from Braun, many Beliebers also took to social media to celebrate the project and its success. After its release, the Jon M. Chu-directed film grossed $99 million worldwide. Among the star-studded appearances in the film, included Usher, Jaden Smith, Sean Kingston, Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, Miley Cyrus, Boyz II Men, L.A. Reid and many more.
Interestingly enough, the New York City film premiere saw his wife, Hailey Baldwin, attend the screening alongside her father, Stephen Baldwin. At the time, the pop star was just 16-years-old, while Hailey was only 14-years-old. Scroll on below to see some of the fan reactions to Bieber's Never Say Never anniversary!
