Five teenage girls were seen to agree to convert to the religion in the sketch on comedy showAnn-Kat Hærland. Two apparently Muslim men asked the girls to remove their makeup, put on hijabs and read what was alleged to be an Islamic creed in Arabic, before repeating a statement that said:
“Justin Bieber is impure and probably gay.”
TV show host Anne-Kat Hærland introduced the episode by saying:
“We wanted to find out how far Norwegian Beliebers are willing to go for tickets to one of the concerts.”
Bishop Halvor Nordhaug from the Norwegian Lutheran Church, who said the episode showed a lack of understanding of how much faith means to people.
“This is an example of an idea where irony and lack of respect turns into something tragic. I believe [the contest] is a foolish statement and it shows a lack of respect for what faith means,” he told the Norwegian news site Dagen.
Justin is not involved at all in this and I don´t think he is aware that this happened.
Why the hell in someone´s right mind do that to teenagers and why would they convert themselves to Islam just to win tickets? They took advantage of the fact that they were JB´s fans and we desperate to have the tickets in their hands by all means possible. I find it rather stupid and imature. How can full grown up people even think of doing that? Of all the pranks the could have choosen, did decided to take this. Like seriously, religion is a touchy subject and this was rather untasteful, if I may say so. What were those people trying to show anyway? It was disrespectful and it not funny at all.
But the question is, since all this was just a prank, what happens to the girls now? Do they remain muslims or convert back to Christianity? What do you guys think about this?
