Justin Bieber made a promise to support Bill Clinton's charity during an apologetic phone call to the former president after he was reportedly caught on camera insulting the politician.


The teenage pop star hit headlines on Wednesday (10Jul13) after footage emerged online showing a young man who looks a lot like Bieber relieving himself in a mop bucket in the kitchen of a New York City restaurant.


At the end of the clip, the youngster is seen spraying cleaning fluid on a framed picture of Clinton.


Bieber subsequently got in touch with Clinton via Twitter.com, and now a spokesperson for the former president has confirmed the singer placed a phone call to apologise.


During the call, Bieber also pledged to make amends by helping Clinton's charity.


A representative for Clinton's office tells the Associated Press, "He (Bieber) apologised and offered to help the Clinton Foundation"
