About Michael Bublé in brief
Michael Steven Bublé is a Canadian singer, songwriter, and record producer. His first album reached the top ten in Canada and the United Kingdom. He found a worldwide audience with his 2005 album It’s Time as well as his 2007 album Call Me Irresponsible – which reached number one on the Canadian Albums Chart. Bublé has sold over 40 million records worldwide, and won numerous awards, including four Grammy Awards and multiple Juno Awards. According to an Oprah Winfrey interview on October 9, 2009, Bublé had dreamed of becoming a famous singer since he was two. His interest in jazz began at around age five when his family played Bing Crosby’s White Christmas album. He also has a strong passion for ice hockey and had wanted to become a professional hockey player for the Vancouver Canucks growing up, but he believed he was not good enough. He has two younger sisters, Brandee, a children’s book author, and Crystal, an actress. He attended Seaforth Elementary School and Cariboo Hill Secondary School. As a child entertainer he used the name ‘Mickey Bubbles’ Bublé grew up listening to his grandfather’s collection of jazz records and credits his grandfather in encouraging his love for jazz music. Both his voice teacher, Sandi Siemens, and his maternal grandfather never stopped believing that he would become a star. He was born in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada on September 9, 1975 to Lewis Bublé, a fisherman from Trogir of Croatian ethnicity, and Amber.
Bublé’s maternal grandmother, Iolanda, was also Italian, from Carrufo, L’Aquila. He often played hockey in his youth, watched Vancouver Canucks games with his father, and said that he \”went to every single home game as a kid… I remember I wanted to be Gary Lupul, I want to be Patrik Sundstrom and Ivan Hlinka. I used to think that being named Michael Bublé was pretty cool because I was close to being called Jiri Bubla\'”. Bublé spent six years working during the summer as a commercial fisherman with his dad and crewmates. He called the experience ‘the most deadly physical work I’ll ever know in my lifetime. He was the best friend of my best friend, my uncle, my father, my brother, my sister, my mother, my grandmother, my aunt and my uncle. I knew that this was the music that I was going to sing and I knew I had to do this for the rest of my life.’ Bublé admitted that he was probably the only one who believed in his dream, stating that his grandfather was the one who was even going to help him achieve his dream. To Be Loved was released in April 2013. It was also his fourth number one album on Billboard’s Top Jazz Albums chart. His 2011 holiday album, Christmas, was in first place on the Billboard 200 for the final four weeks of 2011 and the first week of 2012, totalling five weeks atop the chart, it also made the top 5 in the UK.
