London, March 22 - Justin Bieber was pleasantly surprised when his mentor Usher gifted the teen singer his first car on his 16th birthday.

The Canadian R and B star who turned 16 on March 1 celebrated the day with a lavish party in LA with pals.

And his joy knew no bounds when Usher gifted him a sparkling new Range Rover.

"I was in L.A (for my birthday). I went to L.A. first and I had a party out there for all my friends and stuff and then we went to Toronto and had a family party up there. (Usher) helped buy me a car. He bought me a Range Rover. I can drive," the Daily Star quoted him, as saying on TV show Live From Studio Five. (ANI)
