After performing and winning "Top Male Artist" at the Billboard Music Awards yesterday, Justin Bieber took to Instagram today to give his opinion on how he feels about award shows and what is expected from him.

Justin's Instagram post:
After reading this several times it wasn't long for me to agree and see where he is coming from.
Everytime I watch these award show, whether in the UK or the ones in the US, the atmosphere and set up all seems the same.
A couple music executives in their expensive suits sitting upfront with no emotional investment in what's going on or why they're there - "just thinking bout the mulla."
A couple artist feigning a congratulatory smile and applause just in case the camera zooms in at the "wrong time."
"But isn't this what the awards shows are about though."
The labels seeing the fruits of their labour, the top artists staying at the top and the newer artist getting to the top.
Nobody cares about the 'person inside' it's all about who they are and what can be gained.
Justin has been very vocal lately and it looks like the mistakes he has made in the past have really made him open his eyes.
Only a couple weeks ago Justin advised all fans that he will no longer be taking pictures with
people on the street.

Justin's message for those fans who see him out and about:
#RealTalk
When is it acceptable to just walk up to someone, take out your phone, invade their space and take a picture?
"Just because they're familiar to you doesn't mean there isn't any restrictions - you ain't familiar to them...lol."
It's about time artist, whether in music or movies, stood up and said "F this, we deserve better."
They are not puppets and they deserve RESPECK!!!! *no typo*
"Put some respeck on their talent."
