Move over Justin Bieber, you've got competition!

E-Paper | July 29, 2026

Teenage heartthrob Justin Bieber has fans in some unexpected places!

A video of two unknown girls belting out their own version of his immensely popular first single, 'Baby' has gone viral on social media.

You can see two girls somewhere in Punjab performing an impressive cover of the Bieber original with only a mutka providing background music, which lets their voice shine all the more. One of them sings lead vocals whereas the other girl provides impressive supporting vocals. The identity of the young girls still remains a mystery.

Baby's video made Justin Bieber the youngest artist to have achieved over 1 billion views on YouTube. These girls could give Bieber a run for his money and people on social media seem to agree:

Many stars, such as Carly Rae Jepsen, Kim Kardashian, Soulja Boy, Kate Upton and Justin Bieber himself, found fame through social media. Think these two girls could be the next to hop on to that bandwagon?

singing groups are found in Punjab and they are called Gharvees (because they use small ghara to tap on) they perform in weddings etc. the girls are marvellous. they may not be knowing the meaning of what they are singing but their rendition is superb. I've seen it thrice everyone on social media is sharing it
