No, baby, baby!
It's a good thing Justin Bieber has nearly six weeks off to decompress between his ongoing concert tour abroad and the kick-off of his U.S. tour here on June 22 at Valley View Casino Center (formerly the San Diego Sports Arena).
Then again, at the rate Bieber has been imploding during the current leg of his tour in England, he may need some time off before his foreign tour concludes May 12 with a stadium date in South Africa.
On Thursday night, the 19-year-old Canadian teen-pop superstar collapsed on-stage, out of breath, during a concert at London's 20,000-capacity O2 Arena. He spent 20 minutes off stage with EMT workers, who administered oxygen to him, before he returned to conclude his performance. He was then briefly hospitalized. His collapse inspired fans to create a Twitter hashtag called #JustinTakeABreak.
Things did not improve Friday.
While being escorted out of his London hotel by two bodyguards, Bieber got into a scuffle with a photographer, who had accused the bodyguards of "assault" after they pushed him out of the way. When the photographer cursed at them and Bieber, Bieber lunged at the photographer and responded with a string of f-bombs. "What the (bleep) you say?" Bieber demanded. "I'll (bleeping) beat the (bleep) out of you, man!" His bodyguards restrained him, presumably as much for Bieber's protection as the photographer's.
Bieber subsequently issued a series of tweets about the incident, which came only four days after he outraged many of his young fans and their parents by taking the stage two hours late for his Monday 02 Arena concert.
"Sometimes when people r shoving cameras in your face all day and yelling the worst thing possible at u...well I'm human. Rough week." he wrote.
"Not gonna let them get the best of me again. Gonna get focused on this show tonight. Adrenaline is high now. Gonna put it on the stage." He then added: 'Only way someone can break u is if u let them."
