Justin Bieber is making the rounds to promote his new single, "What Do You Mean," and on Wednesday, Sept. 2, the 21-year-old performer went on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" to perform the song and talk about what happened at last Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards.

At the VMA's, Bieber performed his new song, and at the end of his performance, many were shocked when he broke down and cried on stage. The singer told Fallon that he was emotional because he was overwhelmed with the support that he received from his fans and his peers. 

"I missed some cues, so I was disappointed at that, and just everyone and just their support. I was, honestly...I just wasn't expecting them to support me in the way they did. Last time I was at an awards show, I was booed," he said. 

As a result of the jeers that he received at the last awards ceremony that he attended, Bieber said that he wanted to give it his all at the VMAs and change the way that people perceived him, as he felt that he has been judged because of his previous behavior. The singer had numerous run-ins with the law as of late, and was arrested twice in 2014 — for driving under the influence in January, and for assault and dangerous driving in September. 

"I think it's just like I've worked so hard at this album, I've worked so hard at just becoming the man I want to become, and stepping into situations, you just can't help but feel judged," he said. 

He added that despite feeling like he was being judged, he wanted to do well and that was what led to his crying on stage. 

Of his album, he revealed that he had producers Skrillex and Diplo working with him and that it will be released on Nov. 13. The unnamed album is the 4th album for Bieber following 2012's "Believe." 

At one point during the interview, Fallon praised the singer for taking control of his life once more, saying, "What makes a man, I think, is not how much you can fight, but after you get knocked down, can you get up? And, boy, did you get up! And boy, did you come back fighting!"
