Justin Bieber in altercation with London paparazzi

The concert cancellation comes after a whirlwind of a week for the Canadian pop singer. His week got off to a rough start when he tweeted about having the "worst birthday." Shortly after that, Bieber, 19, angered fans after taking the stage late in London. At a separate London show, he collapsed mid-set, forcing him to be hospitalized overnight. Then on Friday, Bieber was spotted getting into an altercation with paparazzi.

No matter what, it sounds like Bieber could use some rest and some time away from the spotlight. The singer, though, doesn't expect to slow down any time soon; he has concert dates lined up into the summer.

The Bieber didn't cancel. They couldn't sell enough tickets because people in Portugal are smart enough not to spend a lot of money on a no talent little punk.

What a load of crap!!! Who really gives a rata**?? He needs to pull his pants up over his underwear and just go away, ANYWHERE!!! We'll probably hear later that the concerts were canceled due to lack of ticket sales. I don't know why anyone, preteen or not, would waste their money on this puke, and I mean that literally.... Keith Richards has spent the last 50 years totally wasted on everything and he's yet to pass out or puke on stage.... LOL

He's become just another spoiled, overly pampered child star. He seems to be headed down the same path as Lindsay Lohan.
