Did really just make the classically ignorant joke of a fake pregnancy? All the people trying and struggling to conceive children, and who have lived with miscarriage probably don't find it funny. Better do more work with your pastor...

Shame on and . Pregnancy is never a joke. Please use someone of your privilege and educated yourself. 1 and 4 women suffer from infertility and loss. I am 1 and 4, you probably have 1 in your immediate circle.

Justin Bieber lying about Hailey being pregnant is beyond disrespectful. 1 in 4 women suffer from infertility, miscarriages, still born babies. How fucking disrespectful, April fools or not, fake pregnancy announcements are fucking disgusting. Are we still doing this in 2019?
