Justin Bieber has called for Fox News host Laura Ingraham to be fired, after she ‘disrespected’ late rapper Nipsey Hussle.
Taking to Instagram, the 25-year-old wrote: “Laura Ingraham absolutely disgusting what you did on national television. How dare you laugh in the face of a person who has passed on.”
“Doesn’t matter who it is. But disrespecting someone’s [sic] who was a pillar in the community and did right by people? Did you not think about the family who just lost a love [sic] one and now have to see you mock him on national television.”
“It’s absurd and you should be fired period. #repost #spreadawareness,” he added.
During last Friday’s episode of The Ingraham Angle, Laura was seen laughing after she spoke about Nipsey’s memorial service, which took place in LA last week.
Justin isn’t the only celebrity who has called for Laura to be fired.
The Game wrote on Instagram: “So lemme tell you what’s going to happen here… @foxnes fires this disrespectful c*** by tomorrow, Monday morning or you will lose millions of viewers one person at a time until it drastically effects [sic] your ratings, views etc.”
“We are NO LONGER laying quiet while you continuously disrespect our brother, culture African Americans as a whole.”
Fellow rapper T.I. also said: “This is Disgusting! You both are vile despicable, poor excuses for people. My expectations have already decreased so much for mankind in the past couple weeks that this hardly surprised me… especially from @foxnews.”
Nipsey Hussle passed away on March 31, after he was fatally shot outside his Los Angeles clothing store, Marathon Clothing Company.
Following his death, over 20,000 people turned out for his memorial service at the Staples Center on April 11.
Aspiring rapper Eric Holder has been charged with Nipsey’s murder, however he has since pleaded not guilty in court.
