Justin Bieber pens fan letter: “I'm not a robot”

He wants to explain.

2016 has been a year of highs and lows for Justin Bieber, while he has claimed the hearts of fans around the world – and not just Beliebers anymore – with his album Purpose, Bieber has also upset fans with a number of social media and on-stage outbursts.

Following the most recent outburst on stage in Manchester last week, Bieber has penned a letter which has now since been deleted attempting to explain his actions.

"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," the 22-year-old wrote. "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."

Bieber continued to explain his actions, asking fans to understand he is only human after all.

"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."

Do we think this will be the last we hear of a Bieber outburst? Probably not. But at least the singer is making an effort to explain.

"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," Bieber concluded.
