Justin, we forgive you for everything… let’s be friends.
Justin Bieber has asked fans on Twitter to purchase a charity single in a bid to knock him off the no.1 Christmas slot in the UK.
‘What Do You Mean?‘ we hear you say… Sorry, let us explain.
Biebs, who is safe to say isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, has redeemed himself massively by requesting that the general public buy an NHS Choir fundraiser single.
The pop phenomenon, who has three tracks currently sitting in the no.1, 2 and 4 slots on the Irish chart, tweeted the following messages to his 71.9 million followers:
“I’m hearing this race is close… but the Choir NHS single for charity. So for 1 week it’s ok not to be #1. Let’s do the right thing & help them win. It’s Christmas. @Choir_NHS good luck This is what it’s all about. Merry Christmas 🙂 [sic]”.

According to Vice, there were a measly 650 sales between Bieber and the charity track earlier today.
The NHS Choir, which is comprised of NHS staff that met through a BBC Two talent show, released a musical mash-up of Coldplay’s ‘Fix You ‘and Simon & Garfunkel’s ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water‘.
The chart is released on Friday, so we’ll have to wait and see how much of an affect Bieber’s Christmas spirit has had on the results.
