Justin Bieber called out a group of fans waiting outside his New York City apartment, declining their requests for hugs and asking them to leave.
A TikTok video shared by @VanessaFex, who was one of the group standing outside Bieber's home, showed the 'Yummy' singer attempting to make his way inside before addressing the gaggle of Beliebers.
"I hear you, I hear you, I hear you," Bieber repeated as some of the fans asked for hugs or explained how long they had been waiting.
"This is my home, you know what I mean? This is where I live, and I don’t appreciate you guys being here," the told the group.
"You know when you come home at the end of the night, and you want to relax? This is my space to do that.
"So I would appreciate it if you guys could leave."
One particularly bold fan asked for a photo and a hug despite Bieber's pleas, and was unsurprisingly rebuffed as the singer turned on his heel and went into his house.
The TikTok user who shared the clip followed up with a video of herself captioned "Me getting hate for three days straight," along with the line "the fact that I don't care lol," implying that exposing herself as lurking outside Bieber's house had prompted some backlash online.
It's not the first time the Grammy winner has admonished fans who he feels are invading his personal space.
In October, he wrote on Instagram: "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."
"This is not a hotel. It's my home."
The 27-year-old said he had "learned how to have boundaries" in an interview with Billboard earlier this year.
"I just don’t feel like I owe anybody anything," he said.
"That has helped me to be able to just say no and just be firm in it and know that my heart [wants] to help people, but I can’t do everything. I want to sometimes, but it’s just not sustainable."
