Justin Bieber stormed off stage during his concert in Manchester, England, on Sunday night when the audience failed to listen to his talking between songs.
The 22-year-old singer was performing to a packed out audience at the Manchester Arena, marking the last of three concerts in the city as part of his Purpose World Tour.
Things turned awkward when the audience started booing as he tried to speak to them, and a clearly frustrated Justin dropped his microphone and stormed off stage.
According to reports, the incident occurred at around 10pm, and Justin was absent from the stage for around two minutes before returning.
At that point, the Love Yourself singer attempted to explain his actions to the crowd, telling them: “I feel like I wanna connect with you. The point of the no screaming thing is that when I’m looking at you in the eyes you know that we’re actually having a moment and having a connection.
“So it’s not that I’m being an a------ it simply me just wanting to have a moment. Manchester you guys are awesome. But then there has to be ...”
Realizing that his fans were still screaming, Justin concluded: “I’m just going to quit the talking alright. I’m not going to talk the rest of the night.
“We’re just going to do the music. Obviously Manchester just can’t handle it so let’s do the music.”
Several fans took to social media to confirm that Justin didn’t speak for the rest of the concert, concentrating entirely on his musical performances.
The controversy on Sunday came just days after Justin once again hit headlines when he asked the crowd at his concert in the city on Thursday night to stop talking.
Before performing his penultimate song of the evening, Justin told his screaming fans that he had called his tour the Purpose World Tour “because everyone in here has a purpose”, but stopped when he realised the audience were chatting and not listening to him.
“I just thought I could have a moment to say something. I can cut the bulls--- if you want,” he said at that point. “I’m trying to engage but if you guys don’t want to I’ll play the music.”
According to the Manchester Evening News, Justin’s face “twitched with annoyance” as he made the request.
But, once again, his remarks didn’t go down very well with the crowd, who quickly started booing.
Beiber got booed?
I’m stuned.

They didn’t pay to listen to him babble. They paid for him to sing.
Sounds kind of like a positive message. Except the song is basically intended as a subtle way to say FU to a lot of people. Justin has no class at all.
DRUGS.....that’s what it was.
On the other hand, I can't stand his singing either, so perhaps it would be best if he would just STFU AND GO AWAY.
It finally sunk in....”Shut up and sing!!”
Found in a gutter face down in about 5 years.
The Beatles actually stopped touring because of all the stupid teenage girls, they were screaming so loud nobody could even hear the band. Those teenage girls were a bunch of retards.
Man, I love this place! LOL.
Yeah. I was thinking a hotel bathtub with empty vodka and prescription med bottles strewn all over the place.
What kind of sorry fans go to a concert to hear music. Real fans want to hear the singer enlighten them on liberal topics.
Not going to click on the site because, as usual, it won’t contain a video of the event.
Click bait, nothing more.
If you listen to the words, Love Yourself is anything but positive. It’s more like F-— Yourself.
Video is there if you care to look. But, oh well.
I think that’s what I said.
Right on — I should have read your whole post rather than replying to the first sentence. Need more coffee.
