Justin Bieber has apologized to his London fans for keeping them waiting nearly 2 hours at his concert. Fans in the O2 arena booed the singer before his appearance, which came at 10:20 p.m. - originally scheduled for 8:30. Bieber tweeted that there were technical issues, but that in the end, it was a great show and he was proud of it. Randy Blythe, the lead singer of the heavy metal band Lamb of God, has been acquitted by a municipal court in Prague. The singer was charged in December with causing bodily harm to another person - Blythe was accused of pushing a fan from a concert stage in 2010 - that fan later died from a head injury. The court had ruled that the concert organizers were to blame for the incident. Finally, Carly Rae Jepsen has officially pulled out of a concert for the Boy Scouts of America. The singer was booked to perform at the National Scout Jamboree in West Virginia in July, but she said she was canceling because the organization does not support gay rights.
