Country crooner Billy Ray Cyrus just may have the answer.

According to U.S. entertainment showAccess Hollywood, the singer invited the teen idol to his ranch in Tennessee to return to his native roots.

Lets go up to the teepee, build a fire, step away and just, you know, maybe take a break for a little bit, just think about whats important, said Cyrus. Get back to life. Build a fire, count the deer and the hawks and relax a little bit.

Bieber says he's 'part Indian'

IfBieber took him up on his offer, it wouldnt be the first time heclaimed ties to Canadas aboriginal people.

Im actually part Indian ... Ithink Inuit or something.Justin Bieber

In 2012, Beiber caused a controversy after telling Rolling Stone magazine that he has aboriginal roots.

Im actually part Indian, he told the magazine. I think Inuit or something. Im enough per cent that in Canada I can get free gas.

Thoseclaims caused a Twitter storm.

His comments even invited a response from the national chief of the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples.

Mr. Biebers comment that aboriginal people are entitled to free gas is simply not true, said Betty Ann Lavalle, in a statement.These kinds of remarks are another example of what aboriginal peoples in Canada struggle with every day. It promotes the misconception that we are somehow getting a free ride."

Bieber was eveninvited to spend some time in aboriginal communities to learn about the people and culture.

Although we don't know if Bieberwill take Cyrus up on his offer, we can speculate he is likely to turn up for hisnext court appearance onMarch 10 in Toronto.
