Justin Bieber
With 6 G speed, it's the hottest party in town--the Justin Bieber theme party. "Never say Never" as the golden star would say, to gathering together the necessary party stuff to plan a great get together with this newest boy sensation as a central theme. Yes indeed, the princess party is so passé to most 7 -11 year old tweens. If they want to celebrate a birthday, or a "girls night in" sleepover, or getting all A's-- it's Bieber fever that will bring in the right party ambience that will make them and "You Smile"--like his song says!
This is the age and stage when girls (and boys too) really treasure and take personal interest in the whole decor as a party theme --and they take the reins too on the planning and executing. Here's an opportunity to have the lucky Beliebers (or PreBeliebers) share some of their own Justin Bieber party ideas. So whether or not you're in the know about the Bieb, here's a way to join in, get with it, and be just in time for a Bieber Ball!
Used to be that kids wanted to be astronauts, firefighters, or teachers in my ancient days. Today, they want to be rock stars or traveling reporters who get to interview the stars. For tweens, at least the chance to be next to a star is prime. Eight year old Gabriella has been asking since hearing Bieber's first love song, "how can we invite him to our house?" And the next question was, "What if I send Justin Beaver an invitation to our house?" It's a good question showing she knows her protocol, and now you can make it official with the amazing Justin Bieber invitations that appear to be a backstage pass! For sure, they are not your ordinary birthday party invitations, but a memento that can be saved, treasured, and talked about. Get them online in many places.
Now the thrilling bubble does not have to burst if the real Justin doesn't RSVP, because you can get a life-size Bieber for your house guest paparazzi to shoot. These life sized cardboard cutouts with easels are picture perfect, and your guests will no doubt love to strike their poses by his side.
Who hasn't seen it a billion times-- the super bowl 6G commercial, the blurbs of Justin's appearances on the Daily Show, and all the impersonations? Use it to the max and plan to have guests do their own impersonations. Along with the more traditional Justin Bieber party supplies, throw in a wig or two, and some clothes (that your tween will pick out as the ones most like those he really wears). Hand out some Rock Star inflatable microphones, available online from the new rush to get out a host of Justin Bieber party supplies. Rock stars in the making may wish to prepare a routine with a song done karaoke style or a capella, or simply a costumed pantomime. G most likely will bring their own cameras, or even video cameras these days. Award prizes for the most beautiful, the weirdest, and the funniest. Plan a Grammy award for each performer. This show might rival the Biebs own new 3D hit!
Now getting back to the atmosphere and decorations, --purple is the reining color throughout the plentiful array of Justin Bieber party stuff online from plastic table covers to the usual plates and cups, napkins, banners, door posters, tattoos, loot bags, and balloons. However you may find some great debates about the purple verses blue--and the truth about the favorites may be found in 2 or 3 easily available cheap paperbacks online such as "Justin Bieber: The Fever!" all about his 16th birthday March 2010, with photos, his dating info, and more, or, "Justin Bieber Get the Scoop" with loads of bio facts and photos. These books can also help with more personalizedBieber party game ideas, other than putting on lipstick and planting kisses on the life-sized poster of him! This is Justin Bieber, after all, an artistic and creative icon, so why not continue on creatively. The tweens may enjoy planning a one scene skit called, an Encounter with Justin, alone or in a group. Hopefully, you or someone can video and certainly photograph for great mementos to put in a goody bag. In this celebration you may want more than just a goody bag, but a cool Bieber tote bag for each guest.
Don't laugh, but there are really neat 300 piece poster sized Justin Bieber puzzles available, and at this age a blast from the past with puzzle pieces can be a hoot. There's a view of him in one puzzle, (maybe in a "fever"), about to take off his shirt, and in another puzzle he's gazing directly into the beholder's eyes. Either one of these (and a few other choices too) are available online. And, they can go into the tote bags for taking home.
For an interim sit down moment, you can organize a game of "guess how many words in Justin Bieber's name." Word generator online can help you print out the entire list of nearly 500.
Adding in a bit of "do-it-yourself" art to round out the party ideas for a take home gem, you may wish to order some nice sized, 42 inch blow up rock star guitars. These can be designed and decorated with permanent markers or stick on gemstones.
How's this for another Bieber-licious party game idea: "What's in the Name?" Most everyone has not just their given name today, but their email names, their avatar names, and the names that they might like to call themselves. Apparently Justin has been reported checking into motels under the name Chandler Bing. What's the vote on this, and what are some other possibilities for him? (Or for your own secret celebrity name!)
