Justin Bieber Explains Storming Off Stage Mid-Concert
.
Justin Bieber made headlines earlier this month when he walked off the stage midway through a concert in Manchester, England and he has now reportedly explained his actions via social media. Bieber left the stage during the October 23rd stop of his Purpose World Tour after he was unable to get the excited fans to stop screaming during his performance, according to various reports of the incident. The pop star reportedly addressed the incident during his concert in Glasgow this past weekend and then shared the comments via Twitter in a series of tweets that have since been deleted. According to THR.com (via Stereogum), he wrote, "People tend to want to shut you down. What I mean by that is � people try to twist things, some people don't want to listen. But I simply feel like, if I didn't use this platform to say how I truly feel, and if I didn't use this platform to be the man that I know I am, and speak from what's in my heart, then I'm doing myself injustice, and I'm not doing anybody in this audience any justice. "There's going to be times where I say the wrong thing, because I'm human. But I don't pretend to be perfect and I hope to God that, you know, I don't say the right thing all the time because if that was the case then I'd be a robot, and I'm just, I'm not a robot. There's times when I get upset�times when I get angry, there's times when I'm going to be frustrated. But I'm always going to be myself on this stage. "When people try to twist things and say 'Justin's angry at his fans. He doesn't want his fans to scream' that's not at all what I was doing. All I was simply doing was wanting people to listen; to kind of hear me out a little bit. "Certain people � certain cities aren't going to want to hear me out, and you know, sometimes it's my job to just say "Hey, I'm not going to try to force anything". I just appreciate you guys tonight, listening to me and understanding, and rocking with me. You guys are truly amazing.."
