Justin Bieber and Ruby Rose went from Twitter acquaintances to real life buddies in 0-100, when the not-really lookalikes met and posed for selfies together this weekend.
The surprising rendezvous went down in Las Vegas, which was the destination for dance heads attending the Electric Daisy Carnival and boxing buffs who watched Shawn Porter trounce Adrien Broner at the MGM Grand Garden Arena last night.
The Internet’s newest crush and the Biebs have long been compared as looking like each other, with the joke even making it into a recent episode of Orange Is The New Black , the hit Netflix series which Rose has just joined.
With Courtney Love joining the general online rejoicing over the Justin Bieber-Ruby Rose meeting, evidently neither the “Where Are Ü Now” singer or the Australian actress are at all offended by the lookalike jokes.

Ruby and Justin were reportedly introduced backstage during Avicii’s show at the Encore Beach Club at Wynn Las Vegas on Saturday.
Justin took to his Instagram to share photos of himself with Rose.
In another snap, the duo posed arm-in-arm with the Biebs’ friend, Christian Beadles. The picture generated almost half a million “Likes” in 30 minutes.
The deleted pic of the supposedly look-alikes did not show Justin, but captured Ruby and Christian.
For her part, Rose shared the same pictures as the singer, plus a bonus shot. Alongside the snap of the two star wearing reflective glasses, Ruby’s caption read, “#twinning.”
Next to another she wrote, “Haha photos of photos of photos.”
On Twitter, Rose wrote , “So this happened.. @justinbieber haha my brother,” and included a link to a now-deleted pic (seen below).

The Rose-Bieber meet comes two days after he reached out to Ruby on Twitter.
The singer and the actress exchanged a series of tweets on Thursday after the heartthrob shared an old picture of Rose sitting at a piano covered with paper plates featuring him.
In the pic, Rose, seems about to play the white grand piano, which is covered with purple paper plates showing a “Baby”-era Biebs.
“Nice piano,” Bieber tweeted at Rose on Thursday, including the piano shot.

Rose, 29, quickly responded to Bieber, with, “You’re welcome to use it anytime.”

“Gotta keep the plates,” Bieber, 21, joked back, writing the following.

Rose, who describes herself as “gender-fluid,” previously said that she has been mistaken for the pop star . In the past, she certainly hasn’t been shy to show her Justin Bieber Fever.
Now, finally, the two have met. This is officially a moment.
