Justin Bieber Deletes Weak Backhanded Apology To Fans For On-Stage Tantrum

You know what all those Beliebers need after their hero stormed off stage in a childish tantrum? An apology.

Well, stop looking at Justin Bieber, 'cause you ain't getting jack from him.

The closest thing to an apology they're getting is this half-assed explanation he posted — then deleted — on Twitter. What a tool box.

It's long, rambling and not like any "apology" you've read before.

Basically, he tries to justify his goonish behavior at his Manchester performance by saying he has a right to be heard and he's not some sort of "robot."

Bieber, that's exactly what you are. Now please shut up and sing for us.

Here's Bieber's sorrynotsorry rant on Twitter in full:

Twitter
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 and 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.

OK, pal.
