LOS ANGELES: Renowned Canadian singer Justin Bieber hinted at yet another endeavour he’s throwing his weight behind as he shared a photo on social media in which he can be seen enjoying a FaceTime chat with Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai, Daily Mail reported.

“Just got to FaceTime with Malala Yousafzai. She has such an incredible story. I can’t wait to meet her in person and talk about how I can support her in her cause,” he captioned the image of the pair.

While both Bieber’s and the 17-year-old’s faces are partially obscured in the awkwardly-cropped snap, their wide grins are nonetheless unmistakable.

The name Malala echoed around the world in 2012 when the then-15-year-old was brutally shot for daring to voice her opinion about the rights of girls in her country to have an education.

It all began in 2009, when she started writing an anonymous blog for the BBC, in which she detailed the oppression facing her and her friends as well as their fears at living under the constant threat of the Taleban.

Ending her blog after death threats against her intensified, her identity as the mystery blogger was revealed when she was featured in a New York Times documentary.
