Texas Mayor-For-A-Day, 11, Names Street For Justin Bieber

The young mayor for a day at a Dallas-area city is a big Justin Bieber fan and she’s renaming part of Main Street for the teen heartthrob.

A ceremony is planned Tuesday in Forney for a temporary sign designating Justin Bieber Way.

City Manager Brian Brooks says the request came from 11-year-old Caroline Gonzalez. She’s active in student council, recycling and community service projects. Her father submitted the winning essay, outlining his daughter’s achievements, in the contest meant to get young people interested in municipal government.

Brooks told The Associated Press that city officials were unable to reach Bieber to invite him to Forney, about 15 miles east of Dallas.

The Justin Bieber Way sign was made by a city department at a cost of about $20.
