MICHAEL BUBLE BIOGRAPHY

Hai! My name is Elizabeth!

Date of Birth: 9 September 1975

A 25- year old Vancouver vocalist has a gift for making great songs of all time. His name is Michael Buble. "My grandfather was really my best friend growing up," reveals Michael.

"He was the one who opened me up to a whole world of music that seemed to have been passed over by my generation. Although I like rock & roll and modern music, the first time my granddad played me the Mills Brothers something magical happened. The lyrics were so romantic, so real ‘the way a song should be for me. It was like seeing my future flash before me. I wanted to be a singer and I knew that this was the music that I wanted to sing."

"He asked me, as a favor to him, to learn the songs that he loved so much," Michael continues.

"It was kind of a guilt trip, but he didn't have to do much convincing. I started practicing and entered a local talent contest. I won the competition, but was later disqualified for being underage. That was when my granddad, who was a skilled plumber, started offering to do free work for musicians in town in exchange for letting me perform a few numbers with them on stage."

His father Lewis is a salmon fisherman and his mother, Amber, raised him and his two younger sisters.

He is a older brother of Crystal Buble

At 18, Bublé entered a talent contest in a local bar even though the rules stipulated contestants had to be 19. After he won, the organizer, a local publicist and entrepreneur named Beverly Delich, disqualified him but was so impressed by his talent that she later called him at his parents' home and suggested he enter the British Columbia Youth Talent Search. He won, and Delich then helped him record an independent CD.

His single, "Home" has the feature of being the most-heard song on Canadian radio in 2005, reaching an audience estimated to go above 382 million people.

Won 4 Juno Awards (2006) for Best Singer, Best Album "It's Time", Best Artist,and Best Pop Album of the Year "It's Time".

When Michael's 2006 Valentine's Day EP - "With Love, Michael Buble"- was released only for a week, the album reached Gold status selling 500,000 copies. The album also became the biggest selling CD Hallmark has ever released, selling in excess of 3 million copies.

"Everything", the first hit single from the 2007 album Call Me Irresponsible, boasts the fastest trip to Number 1 in three years on Billboards Adult Contemporary chart.

Set the record in 2005 at The Sydney Opera House for the most tickets sold in one day ever.

Personal Quotes

"You can try to trick the people and come out wearing a fedora and a tuxedo but that's not me. I was born in the late '70s, I wear jeans. I don't hang out in casinos. The lifestyle isn't my thing. I don't drink martinis and I don't smoke cigars."

I really like his voice because it’s so unique and low. My favorite songs are ‘Everything’ and ‘Home’. Both of that song is sooo good. Hahahhaa… anyways, holiday is coming up! I can’t wait. But there are many homework need to be done, art photography, geography presentation and also English drama. Well, see you all!

BYE!!!
