Justin Bieber Fans Are Antagonizing Sofia Richie After He Complimented Her on Instagram

Justin Bieber deleted his Instagram account for four months the first time his fans began harassing his then-rumored girlfriend Sofia Richie, and by the looks of things, they didn’t exactly learn their lesson.

Justin commented “you are gorgeous” on an Instagram of Sofia posing next to a pizza, ready to eat, J14 reports. He then commented again with exclamation points to really drive the compliment home.

However, even a comment that innocuous was enough to set off his fans, an unpleasant trend that Teen Vogue quickly picked up on. Many began posting the snake emoji on Sofia‘s Instagram, telling her that she is “ugly,” and that Justin can do better.

Let’s all remember – if you support Justin, you should support who he chooses to surround himself with – and it is never okay to insult people’s physical appearances online.
