Justin Bieber and Carly Rae Jepsen Have “Friendly Competition”

Just a few months ago, only few had heard of Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen, but with the help of Justin and the success of her first single, “Call Me Maybe,” she is quickly becoming a household name. Earlier this week, that infectious song became the fastest-selling U.K. single in 2012 so far — yet, what’s even more impressive is who she beat out for the #1 spot: her boss, Justin Bieber.

Justin took to Twitter to send his congratulations:

When she stopped by the MTV News offices Monday, she insisted the only place these two are battling it out is on the charts.





So, is she going to give up that #1 spot? she joked.
