Justin Bieber has upset parents and young fans in Dubai
after arriving on stage for the latest leg of his Believe world tour
more than two hours late.
The Canadian pop star eventually performed to a rapt audience at
Dubai's Sevens Stadium, but parents have spoken of their anger at the
unexplained delay at the start of the Saturday night concert.Organisers told the crowd between 8pm and 10pm that Bieber "was on his way", al Arabiya reported, as the 19-year-old singer continued to leave his fans waiting.
Sunday is a school day in Dubai. Parents told Sky News that their children were kept awake until the early hours due to the late starting time.
One parent, Rachael Quborsi, told Sky News that her 11-year-old daughter returned home from the concert at 12.45am local time.
"I think it is disgusting that he can be over two hours late and he keeps on doing it. Who do these pop stars think they are?" Ms Quborsi said.
