According to the Manchester Evening News, Bieber said this to the crowd:

"You can scream as much as you want afterwards but while I'm singing try and stay quiet."

Boos from the crowd followed this comment which made the singer walk out of the stage possibly out of frustration.

He later came back to the stage to explain why he wanted to interact with his fans.

"I just thought I could have a moment to say something. I can cut [it] if you want,

"I'm trying to engage but if you guys don't want to, I'll play the music", he said.

Apart from the loud boos from the crowd, some Twitter users lashed at him on their various accounts.
