== Biography ==
John began singing at an age of 5 and it quickly became his biggest interest. At the age of 15, he joined a music talent show and shocked the judges with his original song "Just The Way It Is" and later won that season. John decided to put a pause on music for a few years so he could focus on his education. He then asked his childhood friend Julia Halley to be his girlfriend and they became an official couple. John and Julia decided to skip further education so John could focus on her music and Julia on her modelling career. John released his first album Just The Way It Is a few years later and quickly became #1 on the music charts. John proposed to Julia a year later and the two married on June 5, 2007. Despite concerns from their family about such an early marriage, John and Julia assured them that they knew what they were doing. That year John released his next album Blowing Around followed by Comes Down in 2008 which broke a record in sales and was voted an award for best album.
On February 9, 2009 Julia gave birth to twins Jake and Jessica and John released his fourth album Don't Step On The Lines in which the hit single "Don't Step On The Lines (Or You Will Die)" was a smash hit. John and Julia admitted raising two children at such a young age was a difficult task and vowed to have no more children until they were ready. In 2010 John released his fifth album Highway 99 which was entirely country. He released an album every year annually, with the slow-paced Just Be You, the scary and chart-topping No Escape, the up-tempo Party Rock, the gritty Revenge, and the beautiful and record-breaking That's The Life That I Know, in which the title track was voted as the best song ever made and broke all music-related records and currently has been played over 2 billion times on the music platform Musicana. He released a Greatest Hits alnum that year and continued with new music each year with the country and pop album Come Along With Me, Starlight, Thirteen, an EP with his scrapped song ideas called The Forgotten, and We Will Survive which topped That's The Life That I Know for best album. In 2020, he released a second Greatest Hits album and the following year began working on his latest album Feelings. John stated that after his next album comes out, he will take a break from music to enjoy some of his other interests, such as acting, hockey, and charity work.
John is also a guitarist and back-up singer for his kids' music duo JJ. He stated that working with his kids on their working was the best experience of his life. JJ has released 3 successful albums. Recent concerns over his children's sexual fashion choices and adult decisions such as dating at 12 have created major criticisms for the music star. John and Julia responded by explaining that their inappropriate clothes are worn to keep them cool on stage so they don't overheat and are not worn elsewhere and also defended Jake's choice for often wearing girl clothes. They also stated that Jake and Jess' relationships are completely healthy and kid-friendly, calling it "just a strong friendship" and that they enjoy it a lot. As of 2022, Julia is now pregnant with her third child who is expected to be born in spring of 2023 and John will continue to tour and explore his other passions until he is ready to pursue new music again after stepping aside with his the release of "Feelings" in 2021.
