'I looked up to him': The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's bond flourishes, two years post chart-buster Stay

Pop Royalty Reunion: Bieber & LAROI Light Up L.A. Post 'Stay' Sensation!

The streets of Los Angeles just got a dash hotter! Pop icons Justin Bieber and The Kid LAROI reunited and decided to paint the town red, celebrating their undeniable bond two years post their global hit, "Stay."

A Casual Afternoon with Chart-topping Celebs

Who knew that a simple outing to Dave & Buster's sports bar would send the paparazzi into a frenzy? Yet, when the two music giants converge, even a casual outing becomes front-page news. Captured in candid shots, Bieber, the heartthrob behind hits like "Baby," and Laroi, or as close acquaintances know him, Charlton Kenneth Jeffrey Howard, appeared lost in an engrossing conversation as they left the establishment.

Fashion never takes a back seat for these trendsetters. Sporting black shorts, a contrasting blue hoodie over a pristine white tee, and Nike's that probably never touched a speck of dirt, Bieber kept it cool and contemporary. The cherry on top? A slick black baseball cap over his suave light brown locks. Meanwhile, the Australian sensation, Laroi, wasn't far behind in the style game, rocking baggy blue jeans paired with a classic black T-shirt and timeless black Converse sneakers.

Chart-topping Tunes & Timeless Ties

From a seemingly innocent appreciation for Laroi's track "Go" which featured the late genius, Juice WRLD, sprouted a camaraderie that music aficionados worldwide cherish. Reflecting on this unexpected tie-up, Laroi confessed, "That definitely shocked me. I was like, 'Oh, s**t, this is crazy,' especially since Bieber was someone he idolized in his younger days.

As reported by *Geo.tv*, the duo's combined musical prowess shone brightly with "Stay." Dominating airwaves and hearts alike, the 2021 track scaled the summit in multiple nations - from Laroi's Aussie homeland to Bieber's Canadian roots, and of course, the U.S. The cherry on this melodic sundae? "Stay" held its throne atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart for an awe-inspiring seven non-consecutive weeks.

Laroi didn't hold back, lauding Bieber for turbocharging his rise in the industry, especially after his tour with Juice WRLD between 2018-2019. And in a heartwarming nod to their friendship, the rapper showcased his admiration for Bieber during a performance at the prestigious Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival earlier in April.

As the chords of "Stay" echo, reminding us of its melodic magic, one can't help but wonder – is another Bieber-LAROI collaboration in the offing? L.A.'s streets might be buzzing with their recent reunion, but the music world awaits their next chart-conquering marvel!
