Kaneswaran told the Daily Star: "Justin and his manager love us supporting him. There's a chance of us supporting him in America at some point, which would be massive for us.
"You can't get bigger than him to help launch you in America. We've just sold out a gig in New York City and want to give America a go."
The star explained that they have witnessed first hand how mad worldwide fame can be after dealing with Bieber's fans outside the hotel.
Kaneswaran added: "I thought our fans were crazy but his are mental. We were staying in the same hotel as Justin but he had so much security we couldn't even get in.
"Justin had two full floors for him and his entourage. There were about 200 fans blocking the entrance outside but there was no way anyone was getting to his room.
"He had security outside the hotel, inside the lobbies, by the lifts and if you got past all those you'd then find three more walking around his hotel floor and one more outside his room. He even had two of the lifts blocked off just for him."
