Justin Bieber has faced a lot of criticism over his wild-child antics lately, but perhaps the teenager is looking to turn over a new leaf as he honours the memory of a young fan who died from cancer last year by supporting a charity set up in her name.
Justin appears to be moving away from the troublesome reputation he gained on the road during his Believe World tour, and seems to be embracing a much more positive attitude to his work-load, despite being faced with allegations that he spat in his neighbour's face and faces a fine over bringing his pet monkey on a flight to Munich.
The singer retweeted Russell Simmons' inspirational message in a bid to assure his followers that he's staying away from trouble last week: “Create happiness. Get dat ass to work, smile and breathe in every situation”.
More importantly, as he returns to the studio, the 19-year-old is keeping one very special thing in mind as he sheds his bad-boy ways; his number one fan Avalanna Routh, who died last year from a rare form of brain cancer.
The six-year-old, who called herself Mrs. Justin Bieber, had her dreams come true when the Baby hitmaker flew her and her family out to New York to spend Valentine’s Day with him last year, and Justin is clearly willing to keep her memory alive as he has offered himself as a prize for a fundraising initiative organised by Alavanna’s parents, who set up Cure ATRT in their daughter’s name.
“Miss her”, Justin tweeted of Alavanna alongside a link to the competition details, as the young girl’s parents have admitted their delight to have the superstar on board. Writing on the CureATRT.org website, Mr. and Mrs. Routh said:
Avalanna touched people's hearts around the world. One of those people is Justin Bieber. Justin continues to be the wonderful husband to our Avalanna - as he always has been. We are excited to announce that Justin would love to meet the person who raises the most funds for Cure ATRT... So, today we launch this competition, in honor of our Avalanna - Get your fund raising started... you have until July 1st. Start raising donations for Cure ATRT Now today!"
The winner of the competition will get a meet and greet with Justin Bieber at one of his North American tour dates.
