Justin Bieber leaves fans in shock as he storms off stage during UK show
The singer later explained his actions
Justin Bieber left fans in shock at the weekend when he dropped his mic and stormed off the stage during his final show in Manchester on Sunday night.
The ‘Sorry’ singer wasn’t the most popular man in the building when he demanded his fans to stop screaming during gaps between his songs.
In footage caught on camera by a fan, the 22-year-old can be heard saying, “I appreciate all the support, I appreciate love I appreciate the kind things. But the screaming in these breaks has got to stop. Please and thank you. I don't think it's necessary when I'm trying to say something and you guys are screaming.”

After being booed off stage by certain fans, Bieber returned to finish his show and later explained his sudden exit.
Talking to the sold-out crowd at The Manchester Arena, Justin said, “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. 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.”
He then added, “The reason why I was getting upset earlier was because I travelled across the whole world to come here …. I dedicate my life to performing and dedicate my life to trying to bring smiles to people's faces.
“I feel that people were just not giving me the same respect back and it hurts a little bit so that's why”.
Despite Justin’s outburst, it seems most fans thoroughly enjoyed watching their idol perform some of his biggest hits on stage.
This show was the last of Justin’s performances in Manchester. The singer is now moving on to Sheffield, Glasgow and Dublin before moving on to Europe with his massive ‘Purpose World Tour’.
