Just last month, Bieber, 24, tweeted his support for Kelly’s new song “Never Alone.”
“The end is FIRES. What’s not to love,” Bieber wrote about the heartfelt single, which talks about overcoming troubles and becoming a new person on the other side.
In 2015, Bieber became an unsuspecting role model for her when he took it upon himself to offer the burgeoning pop star — whose first album,Unbreakable Smile, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 — some advice on handling fame.
“He was very mature and very wise. And I was just telling him, ‘How did you feel when you put out your first album? Like, how was it? Because I’m freaking out right now.’ And he was like, you know, ‘You’ve just gotta appreciate all these people here supporting you and, like, that’s what it’s about,” Kellytold ABCafter he attended her first album release party.
