Was his harness too tight? Was he not allowed into Taylor Swift's clique? Did Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus' spat upset him? Why did the Biebs cry on stage?

Justin Bieber cries at VMAs

Justin Bieber may have caused quite a bump on the internet after he broke down in tears at the end of his 2015 MTV Video Music Awards performance in Los Angeles on August 30. But for exactly what reason did he cry?

As Buzzfeed asked; was his harness too tight? Was he not allowed into Taylor Swift's clique? Did Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus' spat upset him?

But it's likely Bieber was simply just overwhelmed with everything happening around him and his career. A source close to Bieber told Gossip Cop, "He worked so hard not just on the performance but himself. He didn’t know how people would accept him. When he saw them on their feet cheering, he was overwhelmed."

"Last time he was on an award show he was booed. This time he was cheered for. It meant a lot to him,'' the source added.

Bieber's reps are yet to respond to this story.
