Justin Bieber has been quiet lately, trying to heal in peace, after he publicly announced that he was seeking help for his mental health issues. But he will not take it sitting down when someone disrespects slain rapper Nipsey Hussle, so Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham was in the line of fire. The Sorry singer took to Instagram to express what he thinks should be done to the Fox News host.
Alongside a screen grab of the news segment in question, Bieber posted a caption on his social media account, pointing towards what Ingraham had supposedly done. The singer asked Fox to fire the news anchor for disrespecting the rapper and he expressed his anger by saying that it didn’t matter who died, laughing while reporting on national television about that person who had passed away, was not right.
Bieber continued his rant by mentioning what Ingraham did was absurd, clearly insensitive to the feelings of Hussle’s loved ones, and calling for her firing by her employers, Fox. He ended his social media posts with the hashtags repost and spread awareness.
If you watch a video of the show’s segment, the 55-year-old host can be seen laughing, while she and her co-host reported about the murdered rapper’s memorial service.
Ingraham also incorrectly mentioned that Hussle released a song entitled FDT, at the same time showing a clip of the song’s music video. FDT was actually a song another rapper, YG, performed in 2016. Hussle only featured on that particular single. Bieber is not the only who reacted to Ingraham’s actions, even rappers The Game, T.I., and Snoop Dog shared the same sentiment.
Hussle, a Grammy-nominated rap artist, was gunned down in front of Marathon Clothing Company, a clothing store in Los Angeles that he owned. He was with two other men when he was shot, but they survived, while Hussle’s wounds proved fatal. His memorial service at the Staples Center was attended by 20,000 people, including Lauren London, his longtime girlfriend and the mother of his son, Kross Asghedom.
