Justin Bieber?s London tour stop hasn?t exactly been smooth sailing.

The Canadian crooner, who was widely criticized for his ?worst birthday? tantrum over the weekend, irritated his faithful fans and their parents Monday night by taking the stage nearly two hours late. But the 19-year-old is already doing damage control, insisting the story is being blown out of proportion though issuing an apology anyway.

The Biebs was scheduled to take the stage at London's O2 Arena at 8:30 p.m. on Monday. However, the young star didn?t hit the stage until 10:20. While typically Beliebers think the star can do no wrong, they grew impatient while waiting ? and concert footage showed them booing from their seats.

According to BBC News, many parents were irritated as well because they arrived to pick up their children at the venue, where doors had opened at 6.30 p.m., just as Bieber was finally taking the stage. Some insisted that their children leave before the show started ? after all, it was a school night ? forfeiting the price of the expensive tickets.

Bieber had excuses ? as well as an apology ? for his tardy arrival at the sold-out show.

?Last night i was scheduled after 3 opening acts to go on stage at 935 not 830 but because of some technical issues i got on at 10:10..so... i was 40 min late to stage,? he tweeted Tuesday. ?There is no excuse for that and I apologize for anyone we upset. However it was great show and Im proud of that.

?Tonight we will run on time and look forward to putting on an amazing show for everyone in attendance,? he continued. ?My relationship with the media is not always easy but im trying. Im all about the music and the performance and i respect my fans.?

He ended by writing, ?I never have any intent to upset or let anyone down. and Im not okay with things being exaggerated. once again sorry for anyone upset.?

First he was just a talentless kid who got famous. Now he is talentless kid who is now a spoilt brat.

Also the hat he is wearing? Who does he think he is Brian Harvey?

Like all these poppy bands, they soon fade away when their fan base either grows up or finds another "heart throb" to follow.

He's not doing very good over here in the UK. He got knocked back from a nightclub in Manchester because he 'shuffles on stage' .. it was of course, just a publicity stunt by the club, a very good one at that, because everyone is talking about it. however, because of these little incidents he's been in the news quite a bit.

The social media uproar has been hilarious, i've got to laugh at grown blokes bashing their keyboards with hatred for Bieber.. i don't think YOU are his target audience, mate, so give it a rest.

He's getting dangerously close to becoming a scumbag. Once he starts hanging out with Lindsey Lohan, he'll seal the deal.

"dangerously close" Hmmm in my opinion him and all the rest already are...... .What a world we live in when some overpaid kid waste regular peoples time in this way ,and of course there is always an excuse. Ohhhhh its not my fault its the roadies fault or my PR guy or my manager but never the "stars" fault. SAD SAD SAD go figure and now me and the rest are wasting time talking about this " scumbag".

Thanks for tagging your user name bro, I would have never figured out what it was otherwise.

You may be the first one to ever bash Bieber as a first post. You sir, have my respect. :D

So, was his tweet about him being scheduled for 9:35pm correct? Were there actually 3 opening bands before his? If what he said is right, then waiting around an extra 40 mins would be more-or-less common place in the US.

Just saying...

My step-daughter loves Bieber (has like 3 posters of him up in her room), but she is at that age. I haven't listened to the guy but I assume I wouldn't like his style because I was never into Justin Timberlake when I was younger.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
