For all intents and purposes, the 2016 Juno Awards went well. Canadian sensation The Weeknd racked up a whole bunch of awards, there were a bunch of Tim Hortons commercials, and Justin Bieber won the Fan Choice Award—which as we know, is a rare feat for someone of Bieber’s stature. So to show his appreciation, instead of actually showing up to the award show, the pop sensation sent a video of himself boxing, yes boxing, backstage at an unknown venue.
at another even less significant award show; the iHeartRadio Awards.Now in Bieber’s defense, he’s probably still salty about being booed at the 2014 Junos and is far too successful to endure the boos from a bunch of ex-Calgary Stampeders players, this year so why not iHeartRadio.
Debuting his blonde dreads and gold chain, the Biebs performed “Love Yourself” and “Company” to all his real fans. You know, the ones who aren’t being held hostage by TD Canada Trust. He even takes a member of the audience to dance with him awkwardly for like 10 seconds. Watch dread-head Justin perform below.
