Justin Bieber thinks he is a pretty powerful guy.

The 16-year-old pop sensation is glad that he can use his fame to help people.

“I think that I’m pretty powerful, I guess,” he said.

“I think that being powerful you have to do something good with that power. We’re helping build schools, we’ve already built fifteen with the charity Pencils for Promise. We just like the fact that young people can help out young people.”
