Justin Bieber is apparently planning to swap his luxury sheets for a patch of pavement in a bid to raise awareness of homelessness.

The pop star will sleep rough in Los Angeles for one night, reported the Daily Star.

It seems Justin’s manager Scooter Braun is hoping that the move will show people the star’s charitable side – after a tumultuous year in which he faced legal troubles and split from on-off love Selena Gomez – as well as raising awareness for homeless charities, which Scooter himself supports.

A source was quoted as saying: “[Scooter] has been trying to come up with a plan to give Justin’s career some longevity.

“As soon as Justin’s fans grow up, it’s a worry that he’ll fall off the map. This seems like a solution.”

It wouldn’t be the first time Justin has done his bit for the homeless.

Last year he posted a picture on Instagram, apparently of himself handing money to a needy woman on the street with the caption: “Always give back.”
