Mega star Justin Bieber's worst nightmare came true when he was was placed in a chokehold by security before getting booted publicly from Coachella festival.
The dramatic incident happened when the "Baby" hit maker demanded an entry through the artist's entrance while Drake's performance was on. TMZ reported that the singer, along with his entourage, was denied entry even after he flashed his authorized wrist band.
The 21-year-old star then entered into an argument with the security officer saying that he is a personal guest of Drake and had waited all weekend to watch him perform. Bieber also insisted that he is not secured out in the general crowd as his fans will "bombard" him any time.
The YouTube sensation's persistence did not affect the security officers at all. At this point, a female event staffer offered the singer and his entourage to provide the access to the artist's area and told them to follow her.
As the unidentified staffer started to escort Bieber, a security officer came from behind and put the pop star in a chokehold, stopping him to go any further. The star was then escorted out of the venue and was told to leave immediately.
However, sources close to Bieber contradicted the report and told New York Post that the pop star left the venue voluntarily after the scuffle and is now even considering to take legal action against the security guards because of the ill treatment he faced at the the celeb-filled music festival.
Bieber's Coachella trip had begun with a road trip, which he took with supermodel Kendall Jenner and Hailey Baldwin. The singer also uploaded a few suggestive pictures of himself and Jenner on Instagram which fuelled the rumour that the two are smitten with each other. Although the pair have insisted multiple times that they are just casual friends, the super cosy pictures seem to suggest otherwise.
