Xenia Deli, the model who appeared in Justin Bieber's music video, “What Do You Mean?” has seen the spiritual side of the singer. According to Deli, Bieber has a deeply religious side to him, which is alien to many of his fans.

"What's so amazing to me is that he's so young, but already having those kinds of thoughts," the 25-year-old told People magazine. "I feel that he has a very deep soul and it's not empty."

Deli also talked about how she was not surprised to see the Canadian pop star cry at the MTV Video Music Awards stage, during the emotional performance of his song, “What Do You Mean?” "He doesn't show that to anybody, but I feel that he did at this time because he has a lot of emotions inside of him," she said.

However, Deli told the magazine that Bieber has actually “taught me a lot about God.” The Victoria's Secret model believes that the singer has “a very deep soul and it's not empty." She was also impressed with Bieber's take on God.

"He told me to remember one thing: that God is love," she said. "He [God] doesn't get upset, he doesn't punish us for anything. He's only about love. He loves us how we are."

The reformed singer has often been spotted attending prayer meeting in a church. On several occasions, Gomez has also accompanied the singer for his religious outings. The “Boyfriend” singer was in Australia in June this year to attend the week-long gathering at a Hillsong Pentecostal church.

"I'm not religious nor do i think I have ANYTHING figured out that's why I call out on God to help me through what I can't do on my own,” the singer wrote on Instagram in June.
