As of this new year, Justin Bieber and model Hailey Baldwin are vacation buddies. But seven years before they were chilling on the beach together, Baldwin was just a Bieber fan, who got the chance to meet him in all his swoopy-haired glory.
On Tuesday, Twitter user @bieberstrusting tweeted out a video of Baldwin being introduced to Bieber by her dad, Steve Baldwin. In the video, which was originally posted as a Vine by Justin Bieber Updates last February, Bieber, after a dramatic hair flip, graciously offers a "Nice to meet you," to young Hailey. The video is captioned, "Justin and HaileyRhode meeting for the first time ever back in 2009!"
