Justin Bieber Takes On Michael Woods Tour Manager Over Hip-Hop Request
The list of people who don’t seem to like Justin Bieber grows longer and longer. After being called out by deadmau5 earlier in the year, the 19-year-old Canadian has run into more trouble in the dance music realm. The story is set in South Korea, where Michael Woods was playing last night. Bieber allegedly barged into the DJ booth, demanding that Woods play hip-hop. We all know that this is ridiculous to ask of Mr. Woods, who is one of the most popular house music DJ’s amongst British DJ’s. At this point, Woods’ management “politely declined,” but Bieber continued to berate Woods and his management for hip-hop. It was at this point that Woods told the shirtless Bieber to “fuck off and put some clothes on,” and this triggered Bieber’s rage. Supposedly, Bieber threw a cheap-shot punch at Wood’s manager, and ran away to hide behind his own security. We’re not exactly sure what happened next, but Bieber was allowed to remain in the club, and actually found himself behind the decks later in the night to finally get his hip-hop.
Woods and other DJ’s have taken to Twitter to denounce Bieber’s actions, see tweets from Michael Woods and deadmau5 below:

So when I told @justinbieber to fuck off and put some clothes on he took a cheap shot at my tour manager and fled behind a wall of security

Dear @justinbieber , would you please grow the fuck up already? In the meantime, put a shirt on, and stay away from nightclubs.

Someone needs to jump on Justin's stage and start telling him what to play. I apologize on behalf of Canada.

Everybody’s angry, and for a good reason. Bieber has overstepped his boundaries once again, thinking that his fame negates common courtesy and normal societal boundaries. We’ll be sure to update you guys as soon as we know more about this situation.
EDIT: It would appear as though deadmau5 has been catching a lot of flak for his condemnation of Bieber; check out what he posted on Facebook a few hours ago:
