'Billboard' mag has 'Baby' star Justin Bieber on the cover of its latest issue! The 17-year-old singer from Canada dons a beige chino pants/white shirt/jean vest outfit, and gives us a direct glance on this 'festive' cover of the music magazine's new issue which will officially hit newsstands in the US on October 31st.

On the inside feature article, written by Billboard journalist Kerri Mason, the 'Mistletoe' singer and his manager Scooter Braun share lots of interesting information in an interview done while Justin was en-route to his sold-out stadium concert in Caracas, Venezuela, the last date of his Latin American tour.

1). To break the ice, Justin admits he lurves addictive candy, 'Certs'; "The fruit-flavored ones, they're amazing. I have a full box of them in my hand right now and I'm tearing through it."

2). Justin looks back at the not-so-merry Christmas he lived with his family in the past, and how his success is helping him pay back to his community; "I remember growing up not having a lot, especially around Christmastime," he says. "We had to get stuff from the food bank, so one of the charities we're helping out is the food bank in my town. I want every one of my fans to feel like they're helping out the world in some way. And being the one to influence them to do that, that's something positive I can do with what God's given me."

3). It is revealed the holiday LP "Under the Mistletoe" was never supposed to happen, as the original idea was just doing a one-off Christmas single; "Under the Mistletoe" wasn't always meant to be a full album. "Justin just wanted to do a single Christmas song. Then it became an EP, because we thought the kids would want more than one," manager/SB Projects founder Scooter Braun says. "Then we went into the studio, and it started getting really good."

4). Justin and Scooter Braun takes Mariah's bitchy mask off! After hearing Justin's first demo, Carey obliged the Canadian pop star to sing her classic Christmas song "All I Want for Christmas Is You" in her original key, no buts accepted!; "That was the hardest song to do," Braun says. "A year ago that would have been no problem.". "Yes, that was high," Bieber says. "But I grinded it out and we got it down."

5). The first single from Justin's upcoming "Believe" album coming sooner than expected?; "To close the year in grand fashion, Bieber will join Lady Gaga on "Dick Clark's Primetime New Year's Rockin' Eve With Ryan Seacrest" broadcast. But Braun isn't sure exactly what he'll perform. "Christmas will be over, and we're working a Christmas album," he says. "But we're going back into the studio to record [more of his next album]. We'll figure it out."

6). Selena Gomez haters, ergo, JB stans, rejoice! It all points out Justin won't spend Christmas with the 'Who Says' singer, lol; "I'll be with my family," he says. "I make sure I take time off to be with them around Christmastime."
