Taking to the stage at the Birmingham Barclaycard Arena, the 22-year-old pop star was forced to address an 'obnoxious' contingent in the crowd - who kept screaming.

Surly and not sorry? Justin Bieber appeared to balk at his fans' zealous devotion on Monday, as he implored his devotees to refrain from drowning him out at a gig in Birmingham

Pausing during his performance, the first of two in the city, the Sorry singer addressed his fans - asking them to let him speak and sing without them drowning him out.

During an interlude as the crowd began to scream again a slightly surly Justin gave his fans a light dressing down.

In a video captured by one of his fans, @purposesbieb, the singer strides about the stage before telling his fans: 

'If, when I'm speaking, you guys could not scream at the top of your lungs. Is that cool with you guys?

   

'The screaming is just so obnoxious.'

And making sure that his message was drilled home, he added: 'If we could just scream after the songs? Enjoy the songs, then scream, screaming is awesome. Screaming is fun.'

 But it seems that some fans thought the Canadian pop star's behaviour verged on the diva-like.
