I doubt Justin is designing his merchandise and album covers. So perhaps whoever is designing it is copying Adam.
Yes.. because that Trespassing color that Adam has is really catchy in the eyes.. that's probably why JB's designer's copying it.. but this design has to be approved by JB and his manager though right??
Justin Bieber has a 360 deal with Island Def Jam Music Group (IDJ). Antonio “L.A.” Reid who signed Bieber to a 360 deal in October 2008 said the partnership entitles the label to a cut of Bieber’s ancillary income, or as Reid calls it, “a very small piece of the pie.” Including merchandising, publishing royalties, endorsements and sponsorships, IDJ stands to make 15 to 20 percent on average.
>> On a 360 deal, the label at least has part of the say in merchandising.
>> I do not know who has official approval on JB merchandise, but there is too much of it for Justin to have the time to approve it personally.

I have no idea is this shirt is real (doubt it) but there are other parts of Believe merch and the album cover that look like Adam. There are some that look like My Pretty Pony too. The album cover was almost certainly an coincidence. Like Adam and Rhianna in 2009.
That shirt is not in his online store or anywhere official that I can find: justinbieber.shop.bravadousa.com/Dept.aspx?cp=21965_56921
Here is the Walmart merch: www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_query=justin+bieber+merchandise.
Target: www.target.com/s/justin+bieber
There are at least 16 other official merch lines + tour merchandise.
And that is just in the US. All I can say is YIPES!! David Cassidy times 1000.
