Hailey & Justin Bieber host party amid the pandemic
A number of celebs have come under fire for attending a party hosted by Hailey and Justin Bieber.
The married couple organised the event at their Beverly Hills mansion over the weekend.
Jaden Smith, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, and loads more attended.
Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti has been very strict about lockdown rules.
Any public or private gathering of any number are prohibited amid the global pandemic.
The mayor has even taken it upon himself to switch off the utilities in the homes of those flaunting the rules.
People between the ages of 18-30 are now contracting COVID-19 at a higher rate than any other age group.

Backlash
The celebs have been facing serious backlash for hosting and attending the party.
Some are asking that Justin's utilities be shut off, 'Don’t be shy @ericgarcetti, turn off Justin Bieber’s power.'
'Ηe wanted to throw an LA party, knowing that over 2,000 residents have died in that city.'

Justin Bieber and Hailey hosted a party in LA, over 2,000 people alone have died from COVID there, and gatherings from different households are completely illegal. Why is no one talking about this? Why do A-list celebrities get to pick and choose what laws they abide by?
