This friendship should come as no surprise to longtime fans; Smith was featured on Bieber’s 2010 hit song [“Never Say Never,”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%5FZ5-P9v3F8w) back when both celebrities were breaking onto the scene. Today, Smith is a fully-fledged actor and musician in his own right, having starred in Netflix’s [_The Get Down_](http://time.com/4452780/the-get-down-music-soundtrack/) and recently releasing a set of rap songs and accompanying arty videos in advance of a larger music project. Bieber, meanwhile, has consistently lent his voice to some of the biggest hits of the last few years, from DJ Khaled’s “I’m the One” to current chart-topper [“Despacito (Remix)”](http://time.com/4863979/despacito-most-streamed-track/) and his own smash singles “Love Yourself” and “Sorry.” In a long [note shared](http://time.com/4885448/justin-bieber-purpose-tour-canceled/) on social media about the cancellation of his tour last week, Bieber noted that he’s trying to ensure the sustainability of his career by taking a break. Looks like Smith — who leads a collective he calls “MSFTS” and has often broken protocol of typical celebrity behavior, whether in his [bold fashion choices](http://time.com/4819049/jaden-smith-batman-video/) or [unorthodox interview quotes](http://time.com/4395194/jaden-smith-nylon-misfits/) — is supporting him in that choice. > [](https://twitter.com/officialjaden/status/895330288481349634) Within three hours, Smith’s tweet had racked up over 25 thousand likes. And now it begs the question: is there a follow-up collaboration in the pipeline? > [](https://twitter.com/fuckingpurpose/status/895336672820215809) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4894305/jaden-smith-bieber/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4894305/jaden-smith-bieber/"},"headline":"Jaden Smith Just Outed Himself as a Belieber Forever","datePublished":"2017-08-09T20:48:15.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:46:16.878Z","description":"Jaden Smith, son of Will, just shared his support for the \"Despacito (Remix)\" singer in one of his tweets.","url":"https://time.com/4894305/jaden-smith-bieber/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Music","viral","Justin Bieber"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4894305/jaden-smith-bieber/","name":"Jaden Smith Just Outed Himself as a Belieber Forever"}}]}] ```
