Oh dear, it looks like The Biebs’ bad streak hasn’t come to an end yet. Following the incident where he arrived super late on stage at the London O2 Arena for the European leg of his Believe world tour, the teen heartthrob is hit by another bout of drama.
He was performing for the third out of four nights at the O2 when suddenly, he started experiencing breathing problems. Justin Bieber then collapsed on stage midway into “Beauty and a Beat”.
According to his manager, Scooter Braun, “Justin got very light of breath; the whole show he has been complaining. He’s backstage with the EMTs (emergency medical technicians) and the doctor”. The pop star was then given oxygen by emergency personnel backstage and managed to return 10 minutes later to perform because he “insisted on finishing the show”. His spokeswoman specifically said that Justin ignored doctors’ orders and returned to the O2 arena stage to finish the performance.
Right after the concert, however, he was rushed to the hospital to be checked out. Meanwhile, the hashtag #JustinTakeABreak has already begun to trend on Twitter, which tweets from worried Beliebers worldwide:
