Justin Bieber gets booed by crowd, apologizes

[Hum]

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.?

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

LOL... funny that, I was just about to say "he could start by... not doing that thing with his hat"

[Hum]

He's burned out -- the career will soon fade.

And I think that hat is just new and stiff.

[LUTZIFER]

the career will soon fade.

Let's hope so!

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.

That's the old British S10 Respirator... what the heck is he doing wearing that?

[Hum]

^ I think it was an attempt to be anonymous, but it failed.

Or maybe he is paranoid of London's air quality.

Then again, maybe Bieber is following in the steps of Michael Jackson.

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

[NoPanShabuShabu]

Maybe the hat is to cover up his ridiculous hair? Or maybe to be all hardcore or something.

[Growled Member]

I'm booing him from here. :D

[Hum]

Wonder why he was late -- too much toking ?

Or out screwing another woman.

[cork1958]

I know I'm old, but just looking at his dweebie a** makes me want to :x

Definitely glad most of this kind of kiddie crap fades out faster than most ANY other type group!!

Thanks a lot Canada...you unleashed Celine and Bieber onto the world, though we may forgive because of Shania Twain and Avril Lavigne. Oh, kudos for the Arrogant Worms, they are brilliant!

[Shadrack]

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.

[remixedcat]

Or out screwing another woman.

justine was busy doing her hair and nails.

[francescob]

How f*****g dare anyone out there make fun of Bieber after all he has been through! He went through his 19th birthday! 19th!!!! And his parents didn't even get him the right gas mask he wanted :crazy:

LEAVE BIEBER ALONE!
