  • Story Text: ustin Bieber was caught on film losing his temper with a paparazzi photographer while leaving his temporary London residence on Friday (March 8) The incident happened when the Canadian pop sensation's security team appeared to have upset a photographer waiting outside and was heard saying 'Easy mate. That's assault, that's assault' at one of the bouncers when the singer, wearing a red hat with 1994 on it and a matching sweatshirt, ran into his waiting vehicle.
    When the obviously upset photographer shouted at Bieber's security officer and told him in expletive terms to go back to America, the singer, visually upset at the altercation, burst out of his tinted windowed vehicle and shouted at the photographer in similarly aggressive words.
    He had to be restrained by his own security team and put back into the vehicle and driven off. He is expected to be performing his final gig at the O2 Arena in the UK Friday, March 8.
