- description: Justin Bieber was two hours late for his opening night at London's O2 Arena, forcing hundreds of parents to leave with their children on Monday night before the singer even came on stage. The 19-year-old has been slammed on Twitter for his 'disgusting behaviour' which saw hundreds of dedicated Bieber fans walk out of the arena heartbroken, despite waiting hours for his arrival. Thousands descended on the O2 arena to see the opening night of the sell-out show, with many fans being under 16, but Bieber did not appear on stage until 10.35pm - just 25 minutes before Bieber was due to finish.Bieber was even tweeting to his 35 million Twitter followers in the lead up to the show that he was thrilled to be performing in the UK capital, and told fans to 'get ready'. But a source told MailOnline crowds were booing the Baby singer after being forced to sit through two warm-up acts, Jaden Smith and Carly Rae Jepsen, before being left to wait for the main attraction. Following Carly Rae's set, fans were left to wait listening to Michael Jackson hits for around 45 minutes until Justin finally appeared on stage at 10.35pm. A Bieber fan told MailOnline: 'It's disgraceful, so many children were distressed and left heartbroken they had to leave the show. Many had been looking forward to seeing Justin for weeks.' One parent told ITV News: 'We were all fans, and now we hate him.' Tickets for the event cost between £57 and £68, with many parents demanding a refund after being forced to leave without seeing Bieber perform.Our source added: 'It is a school night and the arena is packed with ten and 14-year-olds.' After the show Twitter was ablaze with fuming parents, former Coronation Street actress Wendi Peters tweeted: 'I shall have an extremely moody daughter tomorrow .. Livid.' Others accused the singer of being 'rude, disrespectful and arrogant' for keeping his young fans up so late on a Monday night. According to reports, some children were so tired that they even fell asleep inside the arena, with one woman saying a young girl 'fell fast asleep' in the audience before her father picked her up and carried her out. It was also reported that Bieber cut his set by 30 minutes to coincide with time constraints. The O2 eventually apologised for the lateness of the show - but did not give any reason why the singer let down his 'Beliebers'.
