"I want to grow as an artist and I’m taking a step out, I want my music to mature," he explained, adding that he's never really cared about fame, "I’m here solely for my fans and for the music."

Bieber has had an eventful 2013. The year was filled with paparazzi fights, twitter rants, shirtless selfies, graffities and a tough breakup from longtime girlfriend Selena Gomez and it all might just be enough to make the Canadian singer want to leave show business.

"I’m 19, I’m going to make mistakes it’s inevitable," he said regarding his misadventures.

However, the whole "I'm retiring" thing might have been just another one of his jokes.

"The kid's got ambition," a member of his team told TMZ regarding the singer's comments, and claiming Bieber was just joking around.
