Justin Bieber visits hometown exhibit on himself in Stratford, Ont.

STRATFORD, Ont. — Justin Bieber has made an unexpected visit to an exhibit on himself in his hometown of Stratford, Ont.

John Kastner, general manager of the Stratford Perth Museum, says the pop superstar dropped in with his grandparents today.

Kastner says Bieber toured the exhibit for about 45 minutes, took photos with staff and signed a T-shirt that they plan to frame.

The exhibit, called Steps to Stardom, opened Feb. 18 and details Bieber’s rise to superstardom.

The collection has artifacts including Bieber’s Grammy Awards as well as mementoes from his childhood in Stratford.

Kastner says the “Sorry” singer was particularly excited by the museum’s drum set that he used to play as a child busker in Stratford.

The exhibit runs until the end of the year.
