Justin Bieber got a headstart on his 21st birthday gifts on Thursday night, during a small party with friends including his manager Scooter Braun and various friends, to kick off his milestone weekend.

The singer was given a customized 1965 Lincoln Continental as a present from brothers John and Sammy Shahidi, who co-founded the Shots selfie app that Bieber invested in.

According to TMZ, the Shahidis laid out around $20,000 to have the completely restored vintage car made to look like the one seen on Entourage — one of the Biebs’ favorite TV shows — and surprised the singer with the new car at a Los Angeles recording studio on Thursday.

Fans waiting outside posted videos of the moment the Canadian first saw the classic car and also driving it.

Sammy Shahidi later posted a suitably vintage, black and white Shots snap of himself with Justin taking his new ride for a spin on the Sunset Strip that night.

Alongside the pic he wrote, “Cruisin sunset with the birthday boy.”

Justin also shared it on his Instagram account without a caption.

Specialist customizers, West Coast Customs, who regularly service Bieber’s cars, posted a close-up of the Lincoln being fitted out.

Bieber turns 21 on Sunday, March 1. He has already flown out to an unknown destination to ring in his big day, according to social media posts from pals he is traveling with.

Earlier on Saturday, videographer Alfredo Flores shared a snap of what appears to be the Biebs’ chartered private jet.

The producer Soundz also posted glimpses of the group assembling. Among them, Viner Matthew Espinosa.

Meanwhile, although Bieber will be marking his 21st on the day itself, it’s been revealed he will celebrate his coming-of-age in style at the Omnia nightclub inside the famed Caesar’s Palace hotel and casino in Las Vegas, after taping his Comedy Central Roast back in Los Angeles on March 14.

According to social media posts and a Omnia, the singer’s throwdown will take place in a dedicated part of the nightclub called “Heart Of Omnia.”

Sounds for the Biebs’ bash will be provided by DJ Ruckus, while in the main Omnia club, EDM and progressive house producer-DJ Martin Garrix will spin the decks.

Omnia opens its doors at Caesar’s Palace for the first time on March 13, which gives them 24 hours to work out any kinks before Bieber and his entourage descend on the nightclub. Organizers describe the venue as “immersive and transcendent,” with guests experiencing “a lavishly designed space showered with intricate beauty and plush finishes.”

It looks like Bieber has found the perfect way to come down after a public skewering at the hands of Roast Master Kevin Hart, Hannibal Buress, Jeff Ross, other yet to be announced comedians, and Seth Rogen — if he agrees to the singer’s recently tweeted request to join the roast. Comedy Central will air the highly anticipated event on March 30.

The big 21st cometh. But, for now, the question is, “Where Are U Now” Biebs?
