Justin Bieber's representative has clarified a story that claimed the singer was thrown out of a French hotel.

The 'Believe' star is currently touring Europe and speculation emerged that he was kicked out of the luxury Meurice Hotel in Paris for alleged bad behaviour and unruly fans.

The hotel said in a statement that whilst the singer and his crew left the accommodation early, it wasn't because they were told to.

A rep for the star has now offered some clarification on the matter, telling Us Weekly:

"Justin was not kicked out of the hotel. He decided to transfer to the Mandarin Oriental when there wasn't enough security at the hotel to control the crowds."

They continued: "There wasn't even an underground entrance for him at the other hotel and the security was too lax given the size of the crowds. Very unsafe situation for Justin and the fans. Over 500 kids bombarded the hotel." Watch Justin Bieber perform live below:
