We know that Drew Ryniewicz is a fan of Justin Bieber‘s, and now it’s confirmed that the pop star is also a big fan of the just-eliminatedX Factor‘ finalist.

On Thursday, Drew was sent packing after her “song for survival” didn’t make the cut. The emotional 14-year-old’s performance wasn’t enough for Nicole Scherzinger, who cast the tie-breaking vote. The judge offered Drew words of encouragement, but she wasn’t the only one.

Not even an hour after the show aired, The Biebs took to Twitter to send the Arizona native a tweet that would make any Belieber weep. “Keep your head up. I lost my first competition too,” he wrote. “This is just the beginning for u. never say never. best wishes.”

When Drew auditioned for ‘The X Factor,’ she sang a rearranged version of Bieber’s hit ‘Baby. “I am hoping that this is gonna impress L.A. Reid,” she said backstage before the performance. “I feel like this is either the end of the world or the beginning of a whole new great world.”

While Drew didn’t make it to the Top 5, it’s clear that it’s the latter, and anytime she forgets or loses hope, she can just ask Bieber for a friendly reminder.
