Justin Bieber booed after quitting concert in Argentina

JUSTIN Bieber's manager says food poisoning made him quit the stage in Buenos Aires, drawing boos from a huge crowd in River Plate stadium.

The star also blamed a sick stomach, and posted a "selfie'' photo on Instagram showing himself receiving intravenous fluids.

"Food poisening (sic) is #allbad", he wrote, in reference to his new single All Bad.

Bieber's team made no announcements Monday on whether he'll make it up to fans who paid up to $320 to see him up close.

His manager Scooter Braun says Bieber managed to perform for nearly an hour against doctor's advice.

Bieber said "I'm not feeling too good, I think I'm out of energy,'' and apologised as he blew the audience a kiss and walked offstage with his head hung low.

Earlier he had posted messages to Twitter saying he was sick with food poisoning, but promising he would still perform.

Not feeling so good. Actually pretty sick. Pulling it together. Argentina we got a show to do. Love u. — Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) November 10, 2013
