The global hit-making-machine is headlining the venue as part of his Believe world tour.

The original YouTube sensation will be performing smash hits such as 'Baby' and 'Boyfriend' as well as his debut single 'One time' to thousands of adoring fans.

The 18-year-old sensation is looking forward to the tour and said he believed shows would be 'super sexy'.

He added: 'I think the girls are gonna like it'. Bieber will be accompanied by singer-songwriter and 'Call Me Maybe' performer Carly Rae Jepsen, who rose to fame through a YouTube video in which she was joined by Justin along with more of his teen idol friends.

Bieber's tour will be his second of the UK and it coincides with the release of his third studio album, which is also called Believe.

The record was released last spring and has helped Bieber to conquer charts across the globe – taking the number one spot in a staggering 34 countries.

Since being discovered five years ago, Bieber has teamed up with some of the leading and most renowned artists in the business today, including Nikki Minaj, Sean Kingston and Ludacris, as well as mentor and megastar Usher.

He has proved himself to be one of the most iconic artists of the noughties by clocking up an astounding 34 million followers on social networking site Twitter – making him the most followed person in the world.

In recent weeks the star, whose ability to make teen girls go weak at the knees with a simple flick of his fringe, has been offered words of wisdom by Robbie Williams.

He fears the youngster could go off the rails and said: "It's inevitable that someone like Justin Bieber will hit a hard time."

Bieber recently thrilled fans by appearing on American talk show Saturday Night Live.

"The charming and confident singer declared that, after a recent split with girlfriend of almost two years, Selena Gomez, he is looking for a lucky lady to become the "future Mrs Bieber".
