Bieber pranks new friend Taylor Swift

Justin Bieber fooled Taylor Swift into thinking she'd ruined a wedding by setting fire to a boat!

The teen idol convincingly tricked the singer into believing she had ruined the big day for an unsuspecting couple in a new episode of MTV's prank show, 'Punk'd'. Bieber and Swift's new found friendship has emerged after he invited her to his house to write a track.

According to Hollywoodlife.com, "Justin called Taylor Swift and asked if she would come over to his beach house and help him write a song for Selena Gomez. Taylor agreed and even asked him to open for her at her show that night in Los Angeles."

While they were at the Bieber residence, he managed to persuade Swift to set off some fireworks with him. It was at this point that one of the fireworks she had set off 'accidentally' landed on a boat which was playing host to a wedding party. The boat then caught fire causing all of the guests to jump overboard! However, unbeknownst to Swift, everyone involved was an actor.

Despite Taylor Swift's initial shocked reaction, the pair made up with Bieber later joining her at the Staples Center, Los Angeles, where they performed his hit single 'Baby' together.

She later tweeted, "You think you've heard LOUD screaming in your life.. Then @justinbieber comes out and does a surprise song during your show. Woah. Unreal.(sic)"
