Justin Bieber's Christmas Album Release Date: November 1; Duet With Usher

This is the news Bieber fans have all been waiting for. Just has confirmed via Twitter when his much-anticipated Christmas album will be in stores, saying simply: "#nov1st". The as yet untitled album will be released November 1! That's only a month away!

And that's not all. Justin also tweeted that he's collaborating with Usher on one of the songs!

"just finished a late nt in the studio for the christmas album...it is OFFICIAL...my big bro @UsherRaymondIV is on the album with me! #EPIC"

"this duet with me and @USHERRAYMONDIV for #christmas is CRAZY!!!"

We already know that he's collaborating with Boyz II Men on the album (and possible Taylor Swift, though we don't know if that's for this album or a future one). Now we've got confirmation on Usher, his mentor. And we also know all the songs will be originals.

I wonder how many duets there will be? Every song, or just a few? I guess we'll have to wait for the tracklist to come out.
