Justin Bieber was kicked out from Coachella festival after being chokehold by the security at the entrance, it has been reported.

According to TMZ.com, the 21-year-old singer and his team walked to the artist's entrance where Drake was performing, when they were stopped by security and told the area was at capacity and they couldn't come in.

Eyewitnesses told the website that the 'Baby' hitmaker argued with security, saying that there was no way he could stand in a big crowd because he would get bombarded by fans.

According to reports, Bieber didn't stand down and security was pissed and at that point a Coachella staffer came up to Bieber and said she would escort him inside the artist's area.

 

The staffer grabbed Bieber by the arm and began walking him and his security team inside, when Coachella security came up from behind and put Bieber in a chokehold and the singer was then ordered to leave the festival.

Sources close to Bieber said that the singer voluntarily left the venue, and they're considering taking legal action against the security guards.
