Canadian pop music star, Justin Bieber has angered his fans
in Argentina by kicking their national flag while performing on stage.
The concert which was in Buenos Aires saw fans throwing
two Argentine flags onto the stage, both of which land near the
Bieber's feet, instead of the singer to hold up the flag as a sign of
respect as most musicians would do when on a world tour, he decided to
kick the flag off the stage.
However, the footage shows Bieber trying to remove them from the stage by first kicking at them on the floor with his shoes.
The pop star then uses his microphone stand to sweep them off stage, one after the other, before jumping in the air and smiling.
Insulting Argentina's flag is a crime punishable in the country by up to four years in prison. Bieber's world tour came into more trouble at the weekend when the singer blamed food poisoning for walking out of a show for the second time during the South American leg.
He drew boos from a huge crowd in Buenos Aires' River Plate stadium who paid up to $320 (£199) to see their idol perform up close.
"I'm not feeling too good, I think I'm out of energy," he told the crowd, before apologising and blowing a kiss to his fans, then leaving the stage with his head hung low.
His manager said the star's food poisoning was so severe that he spent eight hours on a drip before Sunday night's show. Doctors advised cancelling, but the 19-year-old did not want to disappoint his fans. Bieber also walked off the stage in Brazil, ending a concert early after someone threw a plastic bottle at him.
A Brazilian woman reportedly posted pictures of him in bed after a night at a strip club, and the Canadian pop singer was allegedly photographed spraying graffiti on a hotel in Rio de Janeiro.
