The Justin Bieber: I’m A Big Boy Now Tour 2015 hit a speedbump earlier this week in Norway, when the singer straight-up walked off stage, ending his show after one song, because fans in the front row refused to play nice.
The Biebs was performing in Oslo, and as video of the (presumably very moist) event shows, was trying to wipe water away from the stage when the incident occurred.
He asked fans to stop grabbing at his hands and feet for, like, one second, but they were unwilling to do so. After growing increasingly frustrated, he declared “I’m done, I’m not doing the show,” before walking off stage:

Later, the singer‘s public relations team issued an apology via Instagram, saying:
Sadly it’s Been a rough week for me, long days no sleep, while having to be “on” as they would say for cameras fans etc. In no way did I mean to come across mean, but chose to end the show as the people in the front row would not listen.Hopefully people will understand where I am coming from. I don’t always handle things the right way but I’m human and I’m working on getting better at responding not reacting.Unfortunately people were affected by this as am I. For the people in the back I am so sorry and for anyone I may have disappointed im sorry. Sorry for wasting the tv people’s time I’ll be sure to make it up to you next time on tour.. With love Justin.
Earlier today, to further smooth things over, Bieber posted the number of a cell phone that you can actually call to listen to his just-released ‘Hotline Bling’ remix.

If you’re not inclined to actually do so, the internet has already disgorged a dodgy, ripped version that you can listen to here:
