Swedish singer Zara Larsson<\/a> is going viral for a TikTok comment she left on a fan\u2019s video that many say was insensitive.<\/p>\n The video in question came from one of Zara\u2019s recent shows during her performance of \u201cMidnight Sun.\u201d The fan, @honeyhazelwood<\/a>, tagged Zara and wrote in the text overlay, \u201ci didn\u2019t know i was pregnant<\/a> here but at least my baby got to hear midnight sun before I aborted it.\u201d<\/p>\n Celebrities are constantly tagged in social media posts and videos, so it was reasonable for @honeyhazelwood to assume that the singer wouldn\u2019t see her video.<\/p>\n Zara, however, noticed and commented, \u201cI killed the performance and then you killed it after the performance purrrrrr.\u201d<\/p>\n The joke was met with divisive reactions from people on both sides of the pro-choice and pro-life stances on abortion, and a debate ended up being waged under Zara\u2019s comment from people trying to define a baby versus a fetus and whether aborting a fetus is considered \u201cmurder.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAbortion is healthcare\u201d: Zara explains her stance<\/p>\n Zara posted a follow-up video to explain the reason behind her joke, calling out critics who accused her of making light of abortion. The pop star explained that she wasn\u2019t going to bother arguing with people who were against abortions because of fundamental differences in viewpoints.<\/p>\n Then the singer directed her attention to pro-choice people who were calling her out for being insensitive. \u201cI actually wanna have a little one-on-one with the people who [\u2026] were like, this is not something to joke about. I am so pro-choice. I am as pro-choice as the next person, but abortion is a very serious topic, and I just want to know why that is.\u201d<\/p>\n She went on, \u201cWhy do you feel like abortion is only okay when it\u2019s a very hard decision, when it\u2019s something that women have to struggle with going through, when it\u2019s emotionally or physically painful?\u201d<\/p>\n Zara questioned why it couldn\u2019t be something to be celebrated as the person\u2019s right to choose for their own body, saying, \u201cNow riddle me that.\u201d<\/p>\n The singer went on to say that she did believe that there should be more sex education in school to avoid the need for abortion in the first place. She added that access to birth control and condoms was also important, but that it was \u201chuman nature\u201d to want to have sex, and there was nothing wrong with that.<\/p>\n \u201cBut also, that doesn\u2019t mean that you have to have a baby because of it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Zara ended by saying that she jokes about abortion because \u201cit doesn\u2019t have to be taboo.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSo let\u2019s just make more jokes,\u201d she said. \u201cAbortion is healthcare<\/a>. What can I say? And it\u2019s not better because women have to suffer. Mwah!\u201d<\/p>\n @venusjmi<\/a> shared the video on X and tweeted, \u201cZara you\u2019re 100% right.\u201d They added, \u201c\u2018If you\u2019re pro-choice you have to be pro-choice always\u2019 absolutelyyyyy. I just love her so much. She\u2019s right about making abortion less of a taboo by simply talking about it casually & jokingly if we want.\u201d<\/p>\n The internet is chaotic\u2014but we\u2019ll break it down for you in one daily email.
