Justin Bieber really likes his buddy, Jaden Smith, son of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.
He posted a birthday message to Jaden from India, where Bieber is getting $10 million bucks to perform at at $118 million wedding this week.
Justin’s message is heartfelt, and it only contains one spelling error. Justin, it’s “pursuing,” with a u, no e.
Actually, “tho” is really spelled “though,” so half a point off there.
The soon to be a dad says, “When Jaden believes in you there’s a tangible feeling as tho, if he thinks I’m special who cares what anyone else thinks.!” (Half a point off for wrong punctuation, too.)
Still, a lovely thought.
