A victim of bullying himself, teen pop sensation Justin Bieber had a special guest on the stage with him during a concert in Australia.
Bieber flew Casey Heynes to Melbourne Monday for a concert, during which he brought his guest up onstage. Bieber called Heynes an inspiration who showed people "how to stand up for what they believe in."
Heynes, an Australian student, became internationally known when he was shown on camera body-slamming another student who was bullying him.
Bieber was called a "f****t" last year by a 12-year-old during a game of laser tag, prompting the Canadian singer to push the boy away.
