"Police in Norway are on the verge of declaring a state of emergency in Oslo, after tens of thousands of unruly Justin Bieber fans overran the city -- and now, they're begging the singer for help," TMZ reported on Wednesday.

Fans from all around Europe arrived is Oslo in hopes of catching Bieber during his "Around the World" TV special Wednesday night. The number of girls however, surprised officials who were unprepared to deal with such a large crowd. So many girls flocked to the streets in fact, that officials "begged" Bieber to begin the concert early in order to bring order to the rest of the area, TMZ reported.
Bieber meanwhile, had been held at a secret location. His effort to assist police resulted in a tweet on his Twitter account asking fans to calm down.
"NORWAY - please listen to the police. I dont want anyone getting hurt. I want everything to go to plan but your safety must come first..."
He repeated his efforts again in a later tweet: "...for the show to happen u must all listen to the police. we are all concerned for your safety and i want what is best for u. please listen."
Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun, also tweeted about the situation getting out of hand.
"The streets are filled … the bridges are closed. It is out of control. We may have to start the show early or they will cancel," Braun wrote on his Twitter account.
The event however, eventually turned out well. Bieber later thanked his fans for turning out adding "Norway you are awesome."
