Chris Brown praying for Justin Bieber

Chris Brown has revealed that he is praying for Justin Bieber following the teen stars recent troubles.

Brown explained that he sympathises with the star insisting that it is difficult to be young and famous.

“It’s a case of how I feel. Being young, having a limitless amount of income to do whatever you want. You have nobody who’s going to say, ‘Hey bro, you look whack right now’,” he told US radio show Power 105.1′s Breakfast Club.

“I feel like the mainstream media… they’re going to target the little black boys around him and say this is why he’s doing it. I’m damn sure glad I’m not around!”

He added: “I pray for him, I pray for myself. I think we’re both great artists… he’s like a baby Elvis.”

It was recently reported that Bieber’s mum Patty Mallette was also praying for her son, adding: “Of course I pray for him and I encourage him. I can’t really speak to how he handles that part of his life.”
