Justin Bieber Headed to Space on Virgin Galatic!


Justin Bieber is adding astronaut to his resume!

The singer has signed up for a suborbital space flight with his manager Scooter Braun on Virgin Galactic, according to Richard Branson.

"Great to hear @justinbieber & @scooterbraun are latest @virgingalactic future astronauts," the Virgin CEO Tweeted Wednesday. "Congrats, see you up there!"

Justin then retweeted it to his 40 million plus followers, while Scooter added: "im going to space momma!!"

Virgin is the first company to offer commercial space travel, but it certainly doesn't come cheap. Seats on SpaceShipTwo cost $250,000 a person and the first flight could take place by the end of this year.

The Biebs will be in good company in space. Other celebrities who've already reportedly booked their spot on the same shuttle include Leonardo DiCaprio and Ashton Kutcher.
