It wasn't quite Beattlemania, but Biebermania took over the Eaton Centre on Monday afternoon.
NEWSTALK1010's Entertainment Expert , Richard Crouse, says he was attacted to a group of people gathered outside of a Foot Locker, craning their necks to see someone inside.
It turns out, they'd shut down the store while Justin Bieber shopped privately for some shoes.
It only took about 10 minutes or so, and he was on his way, smuggled out the back door.
"He didn't ackowledge any body, he didn't wave to the camera or pose for photographs. He literally did his business and got out of there." says Crouse.
Many people just stopped to see what the fuss was about.
"That's more why I got involved, just out of curiousity." added Crouse.
But he says Bieber did purchase three new pairs of shoes before leaving the store.
"That's one thing that Justin Bieber have in common, we both bought new sneakers today!"
