Justin Bieber is all grown up. And if you were in audience at the W Hotel in Hollywood on Sunday night, watching the 21-year-old’s impromptu performance of Boyz II Men’s classic “I’ll Make Love To You” — you’ll be fully aware of that fact.
Around 3.37 minutes into his impassioned performance, Canada’s finest dipped it low and began humping the stage in a literal interpretation of the song title.
Yes. All grown up. Based on the riotous sounds coming from The W audience (who were there for the regular Jazz night), Justin Bieber grinding onstage to Boyz II Men was exactly the kind of progressive Jazz they were looking for.
For a zoom at the Biebs’ getting up close and personal with a floor, here’s an Instagram.
Tons of social media surfaced after Bieber’s surprise visit. General consensus from those who attended gave props to the singer’s blood, sweat, and guts cover of “I’ll Make Love To You.”
There was praise, too, for the superstar’s conduct at the W. Instagram user Charles Devon captioned a pic of the heartthrob onstage, writing , “@ justinbieber came through #jazznight last night and killed!”
He added, “He is pretty cool too, after he sang he came back down to the section and asked a few of us ‘how did I do’ I was like good bro! Lol #music #musicmondays #jazznight (sic).”
Another patron at the Hollywood hotel tweeted the following.

Earlier on Monday, Bieber took to his social media accounts and posted four snippets of his “I’ll Make Love To You” turn.
It was only last week that the topics of Bieber, sex, and Boyz II Men popped up during the singer’s Carpool Karaoke ride with T he Late Late Show host James Corden.
Among many reveals, Bieber denied listening to his own music during sex. The singer and Corden also jammed a version of Boyz II Men’s “End of The Road” song, after JB admitted he tunes into R&B when traveling by car.
Meanwhile, Bieber is currently putting the final touches on his fourth studio album, which is being produced by Kanye West and Rick Rubin.
The singer is also working with Jack Ü’s Diplo and Skrillex. On Friday, the Biebs filmed the music video for the trio’s stunning collaborative track “Where Are U Now.”
It was a busy Memorial Day weekend for Bieber. He hung out with Oklahoma basketball star Kevin Durant , Pastor Carl Lentz of Hillsong Church NYC, Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. of Miami’s Trinity Church, and Ryan Good. The group Instagrammed their fun along the way, and also attended services at Hillsong Los Angeles.
But it’s the singer’s “I’ll Make Love To You” cameo that wins the standout Biebs moment.
It’s been noted elsewhere that recent reports on Bieber are refreshingly positive. With new music and decades of possibility to come, there’s every reason to hope that 2013-2014 will become a mere footnote in this young icon’s life and career.
