For those of you who watched the American Music Awards on Sunday, you witnessed a truly special Papa Bear/Baby Bear moment. Mentor Usher and mentee Justin Bieber were darling in matching black leather get-ups, and when Bieber took home four—count ‘em! FOUR!—AMA awards, Usher flat-out broke down and cried happy tears.

Quoth the ecstatic Usher, “The B man! To see Justin, having have received that award [Artist of the Year] before, it was like an out of body experience … he’s ultimately talented and I [knew I would] love to be apart of what he is to become and it is what it is.” Aw. We’ll just call them pop-R&B-singers-from-another-mother, and be done with it. After all this gushing, will these two musical peas continue to share the love? Moonit wants to know.

According to their birth dates, Usher (born on October 14, 1978) and Justin (born on March 1, 1994) are as thick as thieves on the bromance front. Their friendship output says that, “we’re kind of reminded of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully of X-Files fame—that is, without the intense sexual tension getting in the way.” Read More >>

*Note: Moonit’s relationship assessment is based on a proprietary algorithm powered by Astrolabe that identified Mercury conjunct Moon as their strongest weighted aspect for friendship, based on their birth dates using a noon election.
