Justin Bieber's manager has compared the pop singer to iconic British band The Beatles.
Scooter Braun, who has guided Bieber's career since his meteoric rise to fame two years ago, noted the similarity between Bieber and the Liverpudlian group's overzealous fans.
"I don't want to draw comparisons," Braun told Billboard this week. "But there was a band during the British Invasion that had the girls screaming at them.
"I think you know who I'm talking about."
Braun went on to say that the release of Bieber's holiday album Under the Mistletoe next week is very important for the Canadian singer's future.
"All the hype and the kids running down the street screaming, you lose the chance to say that this started because of the music," he explained. "This album lets the music speak for itself."
Bieber's new album Under The Mistletoe is due out on November 1.
