Justin Bieber goes off on fans

Justin Bieber's getting tough with his fans.

He's threatened to block them from his Instagram account after his rumoured girlfriend received a torrent of abuse.

I'm gonna make my Instagram private if you guys don't stop the hate this is getting out of hand, if you guys are really fans you wouldn't be so mean to people that I like
