Over the weekend, the pop star tweeted and then deleted a note in which he apologised for abruptly ending a show in the UK earlier in the month.
‘There’s going to be times where I say the wrong thing, because I’m human’, he wrote. ‘But I don’t pretend to be perfect and I hope to God that, you know, I don’t say the right thing all the time because if that was the case then I’d be a robot, and I’m just, I’m not a robot. There’s times when I get upset … times when I get angry, there’s times when I’m going to be frustrated. But I’m always going to be myself on this stage.’
