LeBron James and Justin Bieber are two names that you’d not think to be used in the same sentence. The 37-Year-Old Lakers superstar has a fanboy in Justin Bieber as the latter openly loves the basketball superstar. The four-time NBA Champion, since moving to Hollywood, would have had even more interactions with entertainment superstars like Justin. But unbeknownst to many, James’ legendary teammate once spilled the beans on his love for the singer as well.

A while ago, Chris Bosh appeared on a Disney show, spilling the beans about King James’s bathroom songs. The Lakers no. 6 has been known to love Jay-Z and Nas, but this was a revelation.
