President Obama Plays Matchmaker For A Justin Bieber Fan

Watch out, Selena Gomez. Justin Bieber is getting an unlikely assist in reaching out to his beloved Beliebers — from none other than the head of state himself. Meeting Barack Obama might be a once-in-a-lifetime milestone for some people, but to a 14-year-old fan of the egg-dodging teen star, there’s only one really important request to make of the most powerful man in the world: get her same face-time with the “Next 2 You” singer. Think the president can deliver? Head below to see how The Biebs responded.

According to Daily Intel, the girl in question is Payton Wall, whose father was killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. After initially reaching out to Justin Bieber via Twitter and hearing no response, Wall then went straight to the White House to get her request granted. She got a response the next day.

After being invited to a ceremony at Ground Zero, Wall was promised that Obama would arrange for a meeting with her idol. When Daily Intel posted that this seemed like a pretty tall order even for the commander in chief, The Biebs fired back via Twitter.

“I think you’re wrong. pretty sure President @BarackObama will keep this promise. #payitforward,” Bieber tweeted earlier today. Looks like lucky Payton Wall gets her wish granted after all.

Way to go, Justin Bieber, for helping our nation’s leader keep his word. Now is that something a brat would do?
