Justin Bieber announced on May 10 that he would no longer be taking photos with fans, because he feels like a "zoo animal". The 22-year-old singer says he doesn't care if he's the "biggest douche" because he has to do what is best for him as an individual.

A fan had called Bieber out on Instagram about the matter and the artist decided to have a rage on social media about it. The artist, well known for tracks such as "Baby" and "Sorry", has become one of the world's most popular artists today.

He took to Instagram to announce, "If you happen to see me out somewhere know that I'm not gonna take a picture I'm done taking pictures." He continued to say, "It has gotten to the point that people won't even say hi to me or recognize me as a human, I feel like a zoo animal, and I wanna be able to keep my sanity."

The Instagram post was uploaded a day after the artist was seen in Boston, Massachusetts ahead of his Purpose tour dates in the city.

According to The Blaze, Bieber was seen wandering around the Boston Park barefoot the day before he posted the long-winded message on Instagram. He reportedly refused to take images during his outing as well.

Bieber has been known to previously have issues with taking images as Toronto Sun stated that in September 2015, the artist spoke about selfies in a Snapchat video.

He said, "Honestly, I'd rather stand there and talk to you for five minutes and not take any photos... just have that moment without the chaos. It's like, 'Why did you travel to see me in the first place? Was it really to see me or was it to get that moment of you seeing me so you could tell people about it?"

Justin Bieber has had numerous replies to the Instagram posts from fans, however he remains strict about his individual wants and is expecting his fans to respect that.
