Oh, the sweet, childish activity of pulling a prank — it can go two ways: either people find it hilarious or people take it personally.

Bieber has been a pop-icon known for his tendencies to get himself in so many scandals. Despite the backlash that Bieber has received throughout his career, this A-list celebrity has not stopped being himself and continues to evoke humor through his social media platforms.

Recently, on April Fools' Day, Bieber decided to join everybody in on the fun and posted a picture claiming that his wife, Hailey Baldwin, known as Hailey Bieber, was pregnant.

He posted the image of Baldwin seemingly receiving a check-up with the following caption, "If U thought it was April fools," to make things seem realistic to the public eye.

Immediate responses overloaded Bieber's feed from Instagram followers congratulating him over the pregnancy announcement — other responses included emojis that insinuate suspicion or disbelief.

Soon after, Bieber reveals that the whole post was a simple joke with an image of a dog in an ultrasound captioned, "Wait omg is that a,,,APRIL FOOLS."

Even though Bieber, and other celebrities like David Beckham, found the whole prank completely hilarious, others did not take it as a laughing matter.

Backlash rose over the prank being extremely insulting and damaging because it was claimed to target people who are struggling with infertility or who have lost children. Comments, such as the ones seen below, actually insulted Bieber directly stating that he was a "piece of sh*t" for making a prank like that.

Bieber nonetheless quickly responded with another image containing an apology, in which he takes full responsibility for the whole chaos and says that he did not recognize the severity of it all.

But, don't worry Bieber we all forgive you!

Let's just take this as a lesson that even celebrities are not perfect — everyone makes mistakes. Also, for those who reacted with hate towards Bieber, remember that at the end, hate is really not going to fix anything.
