YouTube Confirms Justin Bieber’s ‘Baby’ Video Will Not Be Deleted

YouTube has confirmed that Justin Bieber’s ‘Baby’ video will not be deleted from the site. Fans of the artist — Beliebers — responded in throngs on Monday to reports that a YouTube term of service would call for the video’s removal. They took to the Internet, using the hashtags #dontdeletebaby and #DearYouTube to create a petition of sorts on Twitter.


The ‘Baby’ video, which has amassed well over half a billion views, has also garnered over 1.5 million ‘dislikes’ on the site — a significant amount more than its 750,000 ‘likes’ and enough to cause fear that the video would be deleted.

Many assumed that since YouTube is a Google service and Google and Justin Bieber just worked together, there was no way the video would be removed. Still, panic ensued, and Beliebers were quick to defend their idol, threatening to, among other things, boycott YouTube in Bieber’s honor.

Predictably, the Beliebers are being criticized today for their overreaction (read: hysterical mania) to the incident. While this may be true, consider Biebs’ fan base: roughly 10 million teenage girls. There is no one on this planet who will overreact faster than a teenage girl*.

Now multiply that by 10 million.

It’s easy to see how the fever pitch reached the heights that it did, but fear not, Beliebers. ‘Baby’ isn’t going anywhere.

* I come in peace and mean no disrespect to you, teenage girls! I used to be one of you!
