Look, this had to happen at some point. Justin Bieber and Kanye West both have so many things in common.
Their music. Their prolific Twitter habits. The way the make all the girls scream. Admittedly they make all the girls scream for different reasons – Justin Bieber because he’s the latest pubeless pop sensation and all his songs about text messages have won him an army of female fans, and Kanye West because he was he was, like, really rude to Taylor Swift that one time. But that’s beside the point.
Anyway, because Justin Bieber and Kanye West are similar in so many ways, they’ve struck up an unlikely friendship on Twitter. It’s sweet to witness, and it’ll remain sweet until they decide to embark on an ill-advised musical collaboration. Because that’s the point where it’ll become depressing and harrowing and nightmarish. Just so everyone knows.
Kanye West and Justin Bieber are probably the two hottest phenomenons on Twitter at the moment, for very different reasons. Although a relative newcomer, Kanye West has transformed Twitter with his ability to complain that all the absurdly luxurious status symbols he owns aren’t absurdly luxurious enough. Justin Bieber, on the other hand, is a practised old hand who knows when to whine about the press, when to send pre-formed, joylessly flirtatious messages to individual fans and when to wrongly assume that simply using Chuck Norris‘s name in conversation makes you hilarious.
One is an unstoppable force, the other an immovable object. We don’t know which is which yet because, frankly, we don’t care. But nevertheless, the two have collided. And the results are ADORABLE. Here’s a condensed version of how Justin Bieber and Kanye West found true love on Twitter:
kanyewest: Listening to @JustinBieber “Run Away love” … I love Sunday mornings in the crib
justinbieber: @kanyewest it’s not a so what moment for me. I’m 16 and a fan. I’m kinda hyped u are listening to my stuff. Thank u. Nice sunday morning
kanyewest: An I’m honored that you like my Music @JustinBieber!!! You gotta hear the album. Maybe we can do something together. Me, You and Raekwon
justinbieber: @kanyewest me, u, and the chef 2gether on a song = EPIC. haha. might sound crazy 2 u but even having this convo is living the dream. thanks
So what have we learnt from this online love-in? Well…
1 – Kanye West is probably taking the piss.
2 – Justin Bieber has astoundingly mediocre dreams.
3 – Justin Bieber and Kanye West are going to run away and get married and adopt a bunch of children and kiss each other on the mouth and make beautiful music together.
4 – We may have been lying about the ‘beautiful’ part.
