Justin Bieber was reportedly placed in a chokehold by security and booted on Sunday night from the Coachella music festival in Indio, California.
The 21-year-old argued with security after being stopped at the artist's entrance where Drake was performing, according to an article on Monday by TMZ.
The Canadian popstar and his entourage showed they had the proper wristbands to gain entry, but were told by security the area was at capacity.
Eyewitnesses told TMZ that Bieber argued with security and said he couldn't stand in a huge crowd without being swamped by fans but security told him to leave.
Bieber insisted that he was personally invited by Drake, had been waiting to see him perform and angered security by standing his ground, according to the article.
A staffer at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival at that point came up to Bieber and said she would escort him inside the artist's area.
She grabbed Bieber by the arm and was walking the singer and his bodyguards inside, when festival security came up from behind and allegeldy put Bieber in a chokehold.
