Justin Bieber was seen erupting into an angry rant on Wednesday after he spotted a pack of paparazzi filming him while he was out grabbing coffee with friends.

The 31-year-old was on his way to a coffee shop when he clocked four photographers standing near the entrance to the cafe, filming him on their phones.

One photographer greeted Bieber with a “Good morning,” which triggered the Canadian singer’s outburst.

He snapped back, “No! Not good morning! You already know. Why are you here?”

Visibly agitated, he raised both hands in the air and made a “pay me” gesture, before accusing the photographers of caring about money more than people.

“You just want money. Money, money, money, money, money,” he said.

“Get outta here bro. That’s all you want. You don’t care about people. Only money. You don’t care about human beings.”

He continued to wave the photographers away while shouting, “go, go, go,” before walking into the eatery.

Bieber’s blowup comes just weeks after he opened up about his mental health online after weeks of speculation about his well-being.

The hitmaker told his 294 million Instagram followers he wanted to tackle his “anger issues”.

He posted three photos to the app, including a sweet snap of his infant son, Jack Blues, who he shares with wife Hailey Bieber.

Bieber captioned the set of pictures, “I got anger issues too, but I wanna grow and not react so much smh”.

A few hours later, he shared a video of himself jamming alongside fellow musicians with the message, “I think I hate myself sometimes when I feel myself start to become inauthentic.

“Then I remember we’re all being made to think we’re not enough but I still hate when I change myself to please people.”
