<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/bieber_justin/artist.jhtml">Justin Bieber</a> has been declared, "Hot, Ready, Legal" — and not just anywhere, but on the cover of <i>Rolling Stone.</i></P><P>And in the accompanying interview with the magazine, the singer, now 18, admits he's feeling a bit older since becoming legal.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Justin Bieber Proving His Haters Wrong With 'Good Music'" id="vid:793035.id:1687833" width="415" height="255"></div><p></P><P>"I feel like I carry myself in a more manly way," he explained in the <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/on-the-cover-justin-bieber-becomes-a-man-20120718#ixzz20zFCJaGC" target="_blank">issue</a>, which hits newsstands on Friday. "I don't carry myself as a boy."</P><P>In addition to feeling older, <a href="/news/articles/1687569/justin-bieber-live-evolution.jhtml">his manager, Scooter Braun</a>, makes no apologies for Bieber having a personal life and not hiding it from his fans. He admits he's not too worried about Bieber losing fans thanks to his very public relationship with Selena Gomez.</P><P>"Personally, I think that's all a bunch of bulls---," Braun said. "Yes, there's gonna be some girls that if they see him with a girlfriend, it kills the dream — but there's also gonna be girls that see him with a girlfriend, hear about the romantic things he does and want him even more."</P><P>Bieber <a href="/news/articles/1689820/justin-bieber-reveals-rolling-stone-cover.jhtml">tweeted</a> out a photo of his cover on Tuesday. This is his second <i>Rolling Stone</i> cover, having previously graced the <a href="/news/articles/1658289/justin-bieber-abortion-rolling-stone.jhtml">cover in February 2011</a>. That appearance was met with controversy after Bieber was misquoted as saying he doesn't "believe in abortion." (The magazine later issued a statement clarifying Bieber's comments.)</P><P>If fans are feeling some déjà vu looking at Bieber's latest cover, it might be because the magazine used a <a href="http://gawker.com/5926723" target="_blank">similar tagline</a> when Lindsay Lohan appeared on <i>Rolling Stone</i> in 2004, when she, then 18, was featured in the magazine's annual Hot List issue.</P><P>Bieber's timing on the cover of the magazine lines up with several big events for the singer. He just wrapped up production on his latest <a href="/news/articles/1689686/justin-bieber-bloody-as-long-as-you-love-me-video.jhtml">music video for his Big Sean-assisted track, "As Long As You Love Me,"</a> and will hit the road beginning in September for his <a href="/news/articles/1688265/justin-bieber-after-believe.jhtml"><i>Believe</i> tour</a>.</P><P></p><div class="player-placeholder right" title="Scooter Braun On The Evolution Of Justin Bieber" id="vid:791929" width="415" height="255"></div><p></p>
