They probably know what he means.
Justin Bieber snapped at fans staking out his New York City home on Instagram Wednesday night, telling them, “This is not a hotel. It’s my home.”
“How do you convince yourself it’s not completely inappropriate and disrespectful to wait outside my home to gawk, stare and take pictures as I walk into my apartment,” Bieber, 26, queried on his IG Story.
The question, which featured no additional information or context, was followed by a pic commemorating his Billboard Music Award win for “10,000 Hours” with Dan + Shay, which picked up Top Country Song.
Bieber does actually have reason to be paranoid about people loitering outside the homes that he shares with wife Hailey: He’s had a number of individuals make their way onto his property in recent years. Of course, that pales to the 2012 plot by two men, covered in detail by the Atlantic, to castrate the singer with garden shears.
The Biebs will be performing on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend in New York.
