Canadian recording artist Justin Bieber angrily walked off the stage during his own concert in Manchester, U.K., on Sunday night.
After asking fans in the crowd to stop screaming during the breaks so he could speak to them, the stadium erupted into “boos.”
It wasn’t long before Bieber started walking off stage after literally dropping his mic.

Bieber did eventually return to the stage to finish off the concert, but had a few last words for the audience.
“I traveled across the world to come here,” Beiber explained. “I dedicated my life to this.
“I feel like people aren’t giving me the same respect, so it hurts a little, that’s all.”

people have waited years to see Justin live, they're going to scream from excitement, him walking off probably ruined it for a lot of people

Y'all want Justin to respect you but none of y'all give a bit of to him. He doesn't need to be disrespected at his own show
