(Radio.com) Justin Bieber won two awards but was booed when he went to accept one of them during the 2013 iteration of the Billboard Music Awards Sunday night (May 20).

Radio.com reports: Bieber, who went the edgy route with his performance and leather attire, was honored as the Top Male Artist and scored the Milestone Artist award, a fan-voted accolade. But during his acceptance speech, Bieber took to some of his detractors.

"I'm 19 years old," he started. "I think I'm doing a pretty good job. And basically, from my heart, I just really want to say it should really be about the music. This is not a gimmick. I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously, and all this other bull should not be spoken of."

This was met with a mixture of applause and boos from the audience, something generally not heard at an awards show. Watch video here.
