The 16-year-old musician joked with USA Today about his height, “It wasn’t overnight, I put in a lot of time on the road going to radio stations at 6 a.m. and singing, all in the middle of my growth spurt. Thanks to the music industry, I’m going to be really short.”

Justin also dished on putting all his faith in God and how close his family is to the church, saying, “[We] are really involved with God. He’s always been like, I don’t know, he’s held our family together. We grew up with not a lot of money, my mom and I. She was young when she had me. We struggled, but we never blamed him. Hey, all this serious stuff aside, I’m still young, I’m still trying to figure out who I am, and I’m just trying to have fun. I don’t know what I’m here to do yet.”
