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".

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.

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
