Justin Bieber Suffers Concussion After Walking Into Glass Pane

Canadian superstar Justin Bieber isn't only one of the most popular artists on the planet, but is also one of the smartest, and often uses his head to help further his incredible career. However, using his head is something he should have avoided at a gig in Paris last night – after running face-first into a glass panel and ending up with a concussion.
The star, who's putting on secret performances around Europe, left the stage mid-way through his set and managed to walk straight into a see-through glass pane – hurting himself quite a bit. He managed to complete the show, but passed out straight after – since being diagnosed with a concussion.
“I was performing and I was going offstage,” Bieber told TMZ. “There's a glass wall behind me but there's a railing behind the glass and so I went to reach for the railing and I hit my head on the glass... and then after that it really hurt and I felt a little light-headed, but my adrenalin pushed me through it and I performed the last song.”
He added: “After that I went offstage and I immediately felt really weak and then I was walking down the stairs and I passed out for, like, 15 seconds and I was unresponsive. I opened my eyes and I saw the doctor and he told me I had, like, a concussion. I feel good. I have a little bit of a headache.”
The star also posted about the incident on Twitter, saying: “Thanks for the love. I'm fine. Just smacked my head and needed some water. All good. I'm Canadian. We are tough. It's all good. Just gotta take it easy the rest of the night.”
