American singer Austin Mahone has revealed that he doesn't understand why his fans are concerned that he's likely to go off the rails like Canadian sensation Justin Bieber. 

Speaking to Digital Spy, the hitmaker admitted that he has great people around him and they help to keep him grounded, which means he is much less likely to do anything 'crazy':

"The shocking and risky thing that [Miley] has done has definitely got her more well known. I feel like a lot of fans on YouTube and Twitter are like, 'Oh, don't go crazy like these people'. And you know, everyone's definitely going to make mistakes. But I'm not worried, because I've got a big family around me... who are going to keep me in check, so I'm not too worried about it."

Mahone then added: "I feel like all these teen stars, they're doing what normal kids are doing, but because it's in the spotlight it gets blown up."
