Singer Justin Bieber requested his fans to stop throwing gifts onstage during his Purpose World Tour.

During a show at Boardwalk Hall Arena in Atlantic City here over the weekend, Bieber addressed concert-goers when a fan tried to throw something onstage, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"Take this moment to listen and try not to give me a hat or whatever you are trying to throw onto the stage right now, because I probably don't want that s**t," Justin said before receiving a huge round of applause.

"Sorry that was mean. But yeah, now I lost what I was going to say. I was deep into, like, a mode and a zone. I was into it. Now I am out of it. I will get it back. Just give me a second," the "What do you mean" hitmaker added.

After gathering his thoughts, Bieber told the crowd that "we all have a purpose" for life.

"I just wanted to take this moment to acknowledge the fact that we all have a purpose, that we all have a meaning to life and it's not, like, we just don't live to die. And this life is not all struggles. I know that sometimes when we wake up in the morning, and it's like 'God another day'," he said.

The 22-year-old singer apologised again before continuing his concert with a new song.

"Sorry for throwing your hat but you ruined the moment. Whatever, let's do it," he said.
