"I am personally thrilled for Justin, who put so much heart and soul and hard work into creating and launching this song ," said Steve Bartels, CEO of Def Jam Recordings. "I'm also very proud of the way the Scooter Braun team and the Def Jam family came together to execute this effort, with the vision and the goal of Justin's first ever Hot 100 #1 chart topper. The last 10 days have been a constant reminder of what an important global star Justin has become, with worldwide chart milestones being achieved daily as the song resonates. Today's Hot 100 #1 is a historic accomplishment, yet it's only the beginning of the excitement that lies ahead for Beliebers across the globe."
