YouTuber James Charles Faces Backlash Over Pregnancy Photoshoot
Just shortly after James Charles debuted his bald head, the YouTuber is trending once again over his latest move.
Charles recently posted a TikTok and Instagram of himself doing a pregnancy photoshoot. At first, it had many people confused but the star later revealed that it was for his latest Youtube video, called, “24 Hours Being Pregnant.”
While some people appeared to be very entertained, other social media users were just not happy with the whole pretending to be pregnant, considering how many people struggle to get pregnant each year. One Twitter user said, “this is actually gross and offensive to all women as a whole lol.” Another pointed out that singer “Halsey literally had endometriosis. for him or his team to say ‘very halsey’ while he’s taking FAKE pregnancy photos is f*cking disgusting and it mocks everything that she’s been through.” Despite this, there were a few people who came to his defense, with many noting that this challenge has been going on for years.

I’m sorry but James Charles and his team really filmed that shit, made those comments and didn’t see anything wrong with it? How thirsty for clout can you be?! So gross, disrespectful and insensitive. Also I’m sure he’s at an age where he knows that pregnancy jokes aren’t ok

James Charles is getting backlash for uploading a video where he is experiencing what it’s like to be pregnant but like why is it only James? This has been a thing for years and so so many other youtubers have done the exact same thing and similar videos 🙄
