text: justinbieber Via Instagram Justin Bieber FaceTimes with Malala Yousafzai, in a photo he posted to Instagram. 
   
   She's an international champion for girls' education rights who overcame a harrowing attack from Taliban forces in Pakistan. 
   
   He's a Canadian pop star with hits like "Baby," a legion of young fans and several run-ins with the law. 
   
   Justin Bieber is apparently aiming high in his efforts to woo yet another girl. The singer posted a photo of himself using FaceTime to video chat with activist Malala Yousafzai. 
   
   "She has such an incredible story," Bieber, 20, wrote on Instagram Wednesday. 
   
   "I can't wait to meet her in person and talk about how I can support her and the@malalafund. #love"

   The pop star didn't give any more indication into how he got to chat with Yousafzai, 17, or what the pair will be partnering on, but his apparent interest in global affairs comes on the heels of another petty scandal involving the "Boyfriend" singer. 
   
   Just last week Bieber was embroiled in an alleged scuffle with actor Orlando Bloom, over charges that he'd been romantic with Bloom's ex-wife, model Miranda Kerr. 
   
   The "All That Matters" singer delivered Bloom a low blow when he posted photos of Kerr, 31, to his Instagram — and posted a photo of Bloom apparently crying. Both photos have since been taken down. 
   
   Yousafzai, on the other hand, has been busy promoting her cause — sending girls to school all over the world through the Malala Fund — most recently in light of the kidnapped Nigerian school girls and Africa Summit. ||||| In a rather unexpected move, pop icon Justin Bieber took some time out from breaking the law and getting into altercations with Orlando Bloom to Facetime with youth activist Malala Yousufzai, who survived an assassination attempt by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in 2012. 
   
   Yousafzai was just 15 when she was shot in the head while returning from school in Mingora, Pakistan, in October 2012. She had angered the fundamentalist group by writing about life under the Taliban for the BBC, and arguing that girls should be allowed to pursue an education. 
   
   Bieber expressed a desire to help Malala's cause and meet the young activist in person. 
   
   On Facebook, he shared a badly cropped photo of the chat, and wrote: 
   
   `
target: – She could use the publicity for her cause, and he could use some press that doesn't involve fighting over girls or inadvertently fending off bear attacks. Which might explain this weird FaceTime pairing spotted by Pakistan's Dawn.com: Justin Bieber and teen activist Malala Yousafzai. In a Facebook post last night, Bieber writes that they connected via video chat: "Just got to FaceTime with Malala Yousafzai. She has such an incredible story. I can't wait to meet her in person and talk about how I can support her and the Malala Fund." The Daily News notes that Malala has been working to drum up publicity for her fund, aimed at educating girls around the world.
