Last September, Tricia Maltibag was named the winner of Justin Bieber's VMA red-carpet shout-out competition. MTV News spoke to her after her win and she expressed her excitement over being recognized by the pop star for her devotion to him. Since then he has released two albums, including My World 2.0, in stores Tuesday (March 23). Maltibag said she can't believe how much Bieber's popularity has grown since that fateful day last fall.

"Since the VMAs Justin has gotten extremely big!" she gushed in an e-mail to MTV News. "Bieber fever has definitely spread and I couldn't be prouder of him! I remember when the first magazines with his tiny little picture came out and I bought doubles of each. Now, his face is on ALL of them!"

So, has Maltibag given up on the pop star now that everyone else in the world loves him too? Actually, it's quite the opposite. "As for me, I'm still pretty much his biggest fan, though some might disagree — but my room looks like Bieber fever has exploded all over the walls. You should see it! My friends are pretty shocked when they come in and I still can't stop talking about him, and a quarter of my wardrobe is Bieber attire," she explained about her devotion to her fellow Canadian. "A bit after the VMAs me and my friend drove down to Montreal and waited in line 12 hours to meet him, but it was worth it because we were the first of, like, 1,000 people."

And she obviously loves Bieber's new album. "And, yes, My World 2.0 is out today! I only bought, like, eight copies of his album last time but I'm aiming for the golden ticket so this time I'll need more," she shared. "It is absolutely amazing! You can tell he has grown up so much!

"I always knew he would make it big — I just didn't know it would be this fast. I'm so proud, but I still miss the days when he was a small-town boy who did notice girls like me," she continued. "But I support him 110 percent and I'm so glad that his name is finally really out there, so he can finally share his talent with the world, as corny as that sounds. It's been a while, but I still remember the day of the VMAs very clearly."
