….sort of.
The 18-year-old rockstar took the Bieber fever this past weekend to Toronto to perform at the Rogers Centre, the Canadian city’s acclaimed arena.
During the concert, Bieber pulled fellow Canadian singer and Jewish rapper Drake on stage to perform Bieber’s “Right Here,” in which Drake is featured on the album “Believe,” and the two also performed Drake’s “The Motto.” Drake publicly thanked Bieber after the song, telling the crowd it was his childhood dream to perform at the Rogers Centre.
“I’ll tell you, there’s very few people I’ve met in the world that are as talented and as incredible as this young man right here,” Drake said. “I wanna thank you for giving me a childhood dream, which is my first opportunity to perform in the SkyDome. So thank you, my man.
Bieber later tweeted an animated GIF of the two performing together, saying “honored. we did it @drake.”
