Kylie Jenner on Justin Bieber: 'He gets me and helps me a lot'

Reality TV personality Kylie Jenner has been discussing her friendship with Justin Bieber.

In a cover story interview with Elle Magazine, 18-year-old Kylie revealed that she feels a close bond with Bieber due to both of them having the shared experience of growing up in the public eye.

Kylie explained: “I'm so close to him because I feel like he's been through exactly what I've been through in a completely different way but very similar.”

She also revealed that 21-year-old Justin is always on hand to coax her through the pressures of fame:

“He gets me, and every time I see him he always sits me down and is like, 'Are you OK? You're amazing. You can get through this, just stay true to yourself.' He helps me a lot.”

The ‘Purpose’ star’s manager Scooter Braun recently spoke candidly about his fears for Bieber during his troubled phase. Braun stated: “It was far worse than people realise. And when he is ready, he will tell what he was going through.”
