Justin Bieber has publicly stated that he will no longer be posing for selfies – saying he feels like a “zoo animal” when asked for pictures by over-eager fans– so it comes as little surprise that he shot down a request for a hug from a girl at an unveiling his new Barneys collection in New York.
While inspecting the gear, a girl approached him with her arms out asking for a hug. He briefly glanced at her and curtly declined, saying “No.” As he walked away the fan looked at the camera, her mouth open in shock.

The “Boyfriend” singer has made headlines in recent weeks due to his icy behaviour towards fans. Via NME:
Last week, Bieber told a fan that he didn’t want their “shit” gift during a gig, while he previously threw a fan’s present out of a car window.
At the singer’s show in Atlantic City last Friday (July 15) a fan attempted to throw a present – thought to be a hat – onto the stage.
Video footage showed Bieber saying, “Take this moment to listen and try not to give me a hat or whatever you’re trying to throw onto the stage right now, because I probably don’t want that shit.”
He went on to add, “Sorry, that was mean. Sorry for throwing your hat, but you ruined the moment.”
