The Kid LAROI just shared some juicy deets about his big bro bond with none other than Justin Bieber! You might know Kid LAROI as the 21-year-old Aussie artist who gave us the bop of the summer with “Stay,” alongside the Biebs, back in 2021. But their friendship goes way beyond a killer track – we’re talking about a full-on bromance complete with daily check-ins and some heavy-duty life advice.
So, You Wanna Be a Role Model? Maybe… Kinda… No, Not Really?
When asked about being a “role model,” Kid LAROI threw that title right out the window faster than a pair of ripped jeans at a Bieber concert. “If being a role model means people expecting you to have your life together 24/7, count me out!” he declared on The KIIS Network’s Will & Woody. It’s like he’s saying, “Look, if you’re looking for perfection, check aisle seven in the grocery store – that’s where they keep the filtered water and the unrealistic expectations.”
Basically, Kid LAROI wants to be the role model who’s… not perfect. He’s all about showing us how to embrace our flaws. “I’m just a guy. I’m just a human,” he said, like a humble philosopher who also drops beats. In his words, he’s going to try his best, but don’t expect every move to be flawless. We’re human; we make mistakes… sometimes daily… sometimes hourly.
Bieber: More Than Just a Big Bro – He’s the Big Bro Supreme
Okay, now here’s where it gets chef’s kiss wholesome. According to Kid LAROI, Justin isn’t just a friend; he’s the ultimate “Big Bro Who’s Been There, Done That, Bought the T-Shirt.” Justin’s like his unofficial life coach, giving him all the advice and wisdom that only someone who’s been to the top and back (and survived some wild haircuts along the way) can share.
“He’s been through it all times ten,” LAROI admitted. “I go through stuff, but it’s like, his stuff is the crazy, blockbuster version.” So yeah, when LAROI is having a tough time, he just rings up his guru, JB. Bieber’s been through everything – fame, love, controversy, and accidentally eating a burrito sideways (Google it). If anyone knows what’s what, it’s Justin.
It All Started with a DM, Naturally
How did they even meet, you ask? In true 21st-century friendship fashion, Justin slid into Kid LAROI’s DMs. Not with a cheesy pick-up line, though, just a casual “love your music” and an invitation to check out a song on his album Justice. Next thing you know, LAROI’s at Justin’s place, shooting hoops and vibing like they’ve been besties for years.
Now they’re basically inseparable – Kid LAROI’s even got Justin checking in on him daily. Every day, like clockwork, he’s getting those classic “Hey, you good, bro?” texts. It’s like Bieber’s his fairy god-brother, sprinkling magical positivity vibes and good advice everywhere he goes.
The Bromance is Contagious
And it doesn’t stop with just the two of them. Justin’s positivity is apparently as contagious as a catchy tune, with LAROI saying it’s inspired him to check in on his own friends and family. So, if you’ve been wondering why your group chat is suddenly getting random “just checking on you, fam” messages, you might have the Kid LAROI–Bieber bromance to thank.
Plus, this dynamic duo is also party pals! Back in October, Kid LAROI and his girlfriend, Tate McRae, joined Justin and Hailey Bieber at her Rhode party, because what’s a celeb friendship without at least one glam event to show it off?
The friendship between The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber is more than just music. It’s about two guys – one a wise pop sage, the other a young rising star – figuring out life and making it okay for the rest of us to be human. Or as Bieber might put it, staying real.
