Y'all are aware he didn't say he was waiting until marriage, right? Anyway, I think that's a great way to do it. Too many people our age rush into sex and then end up regretting it or worse, so why bash him for wanting to experience sex with someone he actually cares about and loves!? With drinking, I'm sure he didn't mean it. He'll be drinking once he hits around the age of 18 so...
I think alcohol is disgusting too, and I'm quite a bit older than him (I still drink it though, I have to mix it loads to get it to taste nice).
I guess at 16 it isn't such a big deal, but in not long people are going to give him a really hard time for being a virgin. I feel a bit sorry for him tbh.
Here we go again...how many teen singers who went on and on about saving themselves for marriage actually lived up to it? Jessica Simpson, Kevin Jonas I guess, and that's about it. The rest end up changing their minds a few years down the road well before marriage but they hardly ever come out and say, "You know, that's what I thought when I was 16 but I got older, things change and I wouldn't recommend making proclamations like that to younger pop stars coming up now."
There is nothing wrong with a 16 year old being a virgin but famous kids who proclaim it so loudly, it's just inviting others to be on Purity Watch, gleefully trying to catch them slipping off their pedestal. Nine times out of ten, the purity ring quietly disappears in a couple of years, the lyrics/photo shoots get a little racier, they're vacationing/practically living with a bf/gf.

The first two paragraphs are like a clone of Bieber in his earlier years. Exact same responses, down to thanking The Lord. But he's a good kid. I've seen him before as he's right down the road.
