Justin B: Sorry I was late

Posted: 05 Mar 2013 10:51 PM PST

LONDON (Reuters) - Canadian singer Justin Bieber apologised on Tuesday after fans booed him for turning up nearly two hours late to a London concert, blaming technical issues for his late performance.

The 19-year-old teen idol had been scheduled to take the stage at London's O2 Arena at 8.30pm but said in a Twitter message that the time was pushed back to 9.35pm due to "some technical issues".

Many fans, and the venue itself, appeared not to have got the message after complaints poured in that Bieber was nearly two hours late when he finally appeared at around 10.20pm.

"Last night i was scheduled after 3 opening acts to go on stage at 9.35 not 8.30 but because of some technical issues," Bieber wrote on Twitter, the micro-blogging site where he boasts the largest following of more than 35 million people.

"I got on at 10:10..so...i was 40 min late to stage. there is no excuse for that and I apologize for anyone we upset. However it was great show and Im proud of that."

In the third of four tweets, he vowed to run on time on Tuesday, and in the final message said his relationship with the media, which picked up on fans' displeasure following Monday night's concert, was "not always easy but im trying".

The popular Sun tabloid newspaper said many fans, some of them as young as five years old, had gone home by the time Bieber began while others voiced frustration.

There was no on-stage apology, although the O2 Arena did later address fans, popularly known as "Beliebers", apologising in a Twitter message to "all the Justin Bieber fans for the lateness of his show tonight".

Bieber is due to play the same venue on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Many people voiced their frustration at having to wait, while others reacted angrily to the headlines.

"Justin Bieber is my fave person but 2 hours late on stage is a joke!" fan Jess wrote on Twitter. "Does he realise that he has fans under the age of 10?"

Others jumped to his defence early on Tuesday.

"Feel really bad for @justinbieber now! Yes he was late but he put on a flipping good show! It was amazing," said one.

Not all reviewers were quite so kind for the singer who was named by Forbes magazine in 2012 as the third most powerful celebrity in the world.

London's Evening Standard awarded the Baby singer two stars, saying he turned "victory into defeat".

"By the end, the O2 was barely half-full and when Bieber asked 'Who's seen me play before?', he might have been better wondering who would spend time, money and adoration on seeing him again," wrote critic John Aizlewood.

Bieber's visit to Britain has probably not been his best.

On 2 March, the day after he turned 19, he tweeted "worst birthday" amid reports some of his entourage were turned away from a London nightclub because they could not supply adequate proof of their age.

Bieber, who was discovered on YouTube in 2008, last month became the youngest artist to land five chart-topping albums in the United States following the release of his latest record, Believe Acoustic.

Freddie Mercury burial plaque missing

Posted: 05 Mar 2013 10:27 PM PST

The plaque, believed to have been placed at the site where the late Queen legend's ashes were scattered by ex-girlfriend Mary Austin has mysteriously vanished from London's Kensal Green cemetery.

A fan told the Daily Mirror newspaper, "It's just disappeared into complete thin air. No sooner had the mystery of Freddie's ashes seemingly been solved than this adds a whole new chapter."

It's all very odd but it just adds to the intrigue of where they ended up. The whereabouts of Freddie's remains, who died from complications caused by AIDS in 1991 aged 45, had remained a mystery until last month when a plaque reading "In Loving Memory of Farrokh Bulsara" - the Zanzibar-born star's real name - and signed "M" was uncovered at the west London cemetery.

The message continues: "5 Sept. 1946 - 24 Nov. 1991. Pour Etre Toujours Pres De Toi Avec Tout Mon Amour." The French words translate to: "Always to be close to you with all my love."

Mourning lover Mary has vowed to never reveal the ashes' location after the singer was cremated at Kensal Green. She explained: "I made a promise on his death bed that I would never reveal where his ashes were. I do know where they are but that's all I have to say on it."

Workers at the cemetery had no idea the plaque was in honour of the Bohemian Rhapsody singer and it's not known how long it had been there before its disappearance.

Adam Levine is dating Amanda Setton

Posted: 05 Mar 2013 07:59 PM PST

The 33-year-old Maroon 5 frontman - who split from Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo recently - has reportedly fallen head-over-heels for the 27-year-old Gossip Girl actress after meeting her through mutual friends, who say they "instantly clicked".

A friend close to the couple told gossip website RadarOnline.com, "Adam and Amanda have just started dating each other, and it's still early days. They met around a month ago through mutual friends and instantly hit it off, and they have gone on several dates since."

Unfortunately, Adam's reputation with the ladies precedes him. He doesn't seem to go often without having a glamorous supermodel on his arm - so there's a worry Adam could be playing Amanda. "We'll just have to wait and see. At the moment, they've just started seeing each other - we'll soon know if it's serious or not," the friend said.

Adam previously dated model Anne Vyalitsyna, who dumped him last April after two years together.

The Voice mentor recently revealed he thinks McDonald's is the perfect place for a first date but still likes to get dressed up in a tuxedo. "I always like to dress up in a tuxedo and tell the girl to dress real fancy. I like to pick her up and go to McDonald's in a tuxedo.... It's a good spontaneous, romantic thing you can do that's also cost-effective," the singer said.

He added, "What if you don't like the person? It's only the first date. Dress fancy, but go to McDonald's. Her world will be so rocked. You might be able to take her to the opera afterwards. If you don't like her, you can just take her home."
