An Offaly man who owns a bar in New York City reportedly asked Justin Bieber for ID as he didn't recognise him. 

The 23-year-old superstar visited the Gramercy Ale House in New York back in May, when he was astonished to be asked for ID by the midlands man. 

Speaking to the Tullamore Tribune, owner Trevor Kelly said:

"He came up and asked for a bottle of Corona and I asked him for his ID. He has a bad reputation but I found him to be nice and mannerly."

As per the law, Bieber whipped out his ID and continued to drink in the Manhatten bar. Trevor also went on to say that Bieber drank a pint of Guinness bought for him by another customer.

Oh, the troubles of a baby face...
