Bieber’s list of not only popular and catchy but also platinum and gold certified songs is always growing. Most recently, Bieber released his single “What Do You Mean?”, at the end of August and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) awarded it a platinum certification.

Bieber captioned the photo above, “Officially a part of the legacy,” which pretty much sums up just how big of an endorsement this was for the singer especially with the big Calvin Klein names that have come before him—including Mark Wahlberg and David Beckham.
This 2015 Calvin Klein campaign featured Bieber alongside model Lara Stone in black and white images showing off his tattoos, abs and underwear. This campaign received a lot of attention and Bieber most likely received a lot of money. Figures have not been released on his earnings from this campaign.
