Justin Bieber may have slammed his critics last night at the Billboard Music Awards for focussing too much on his off-stage antics and not enough on \u201cthe music, the craft that I\u2019m making,\u201d but he probably wasn\u2019t referring to Jon Bon Jovi. <\/p>\n
The 1980s rock star has called the 19-year-old singer an \u201casshole\u201d for arriving on stage two hours late for a concert at London\u2019s 02 Arena as part of his “Believe” world tour. <\/p>\n
The 51-year-old rock singer claimed the teenage star risks alienating fans if he continues to disappoint. Speaking to the Evening Standard, Bon Jovi said: \u201cEvery generation had guys that do that, none of that is new.<\/p>\n
“They run the risk of disrespecting their audience members who have worked hard to pay for their ticket, to give you the permission to take two or three hours of their lives \u2013 or in that kid\u2019s case, 80 minutes of their lives.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo it once, you can be forgiven. Do it enough times and shame on you. They won\u2019t have you back. Then it becomes a clich\u00e9. It\u2019s really not cool- you\u2019re an asshole. Go to f***in\u2019 work!\u201d<\/p>\n
Bieber\u2019s \u2018Believe\u2019 world tour has attracted much attention after the Canadian pop star was attacked by a fan onstage in Dubai and was forced to give up his pet monkey in Germany after arriving without the correct legal documentation. <\/p>\n
The singer\u2019s tour bus was also the subject of a police raid in which officials allegedly found drugs and a stud gun on board.<\/p>\n
After receiving his new milestone award at the Billboard Music Awards last night, Bieber hit back at critics by saying: \u201cI\u2019m 19-years-old and I think I\u2019m doing a pretty good job, and basically from the heart I really just want to say it should really just be about the music, about the craft, about the craft that I\u2019m making.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not a gimmick, and I\u2019m an artist, and I should be taken seriously. And all this other bull should not be spoken of.\u201d<\/p>\n
