Justin Bieber's manager has reacted badly to the fact that the Boyfriend star recieved no Grammy nominations, saying the award's board 'blew it'.
The shortlist for the 55th Annual Grammy Awards was unveiled last night, but Bieber's name didn't appear in any category.
His manager Scooter Braun took to twitter to kick back at the decison.
He wrote: "First..congrats to @carlyraejepson, thought u deserved a best new artist nom, but proud Call Me Maybe got u 2 noms. so proud of u (sic)."
But then continued, "second...this time there wont be any wise words, no excuses, I just plain DISAGREE. The kid deserved it. Grammy board u blew it on this one."
He went on to argue that Bieber had done well to maintain momentum and had won people over in the last year.
Braun made clear that he felt the singer deserved more recognition for his work in the last 12 months than he was getting.
"I don't really have any kind nice positive things to say about a decision I don't agree with."
"So to all those nominated... you do deserve it. You worked hard and u earned it. Just feel like so did JB."
He appeared to have cooled off later, though, tweeting: "the greatest meditation is sleep."
Bieber's army of fans also took to twitter to protest the stars omission from the nominations, but the man himself has stayed quite about it.
Bieber wrote only that he was 'back in the studio'.

Also missing out on a Grammy nomination are boyband One Direction.
Frank Ocean will be feeling a lot more pleased with himself.
One of R&B's brightest new stars, Ocean was nominated in four categories - Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Best New Artist and Best Urban Contemporary Album.
