Singer Zara Larsson Under Fire After Joke About Getting Abortion Goes Viral
Newsweek ^ | Mar 06, 2026 | Lydia Patrick

Zara Larsson has found herself at the center of a social media storm after responding to a fan’s TikTok post that referenced abortion, prompting widespread debate about humor, boundaries and celebrity responsibility.

The controversy began earlier this week when a TikTok user shared a video from one of Larsson’s recent concerts, filmed during her performance of "Midnight Sun."

In a caption overlaid on the clip, the fan wrote that she had not realized she was pregnant at the time of the show and added that "at least my baby got to hear Midnight Sun before I aborted it."

Larsson, 28, is a Swedish pop singer and songwriter who rose to prominence after winning Talang (Sweden’s version of Got Talent) in 2008. She later broke through internationally with hits including "Lush Life," "Never Forget You," and "Symphony," and has since released multiple studio albums while touring globally.

Larsson, who is currently touring, responded directly in the comments. "I killed the performance and then you killed it after the performance purrrrr," the Swedish pop star wrote, a remark that quickly went viral.

Newsweek reached out to a representative for Zara Larsson for comment via email.

Jokes about killing children tend not to go over well.

Not sure why this would surprise anyone.

If they’ll casually joke about, then actually kill babies, what will they do to those who disagree with them?

She says abortion is “healthcare” so it’s OK to be flippant about it. Beheadings are also “healthcare” - surgical removal of the head - so I guess we’re fine to be flippant about that happening in real life too, eh, Zara?

We are seeing that now

The casual attitude about abortion over the or the cheerleading on abortion since is what started the radicalization of women, especially white women

What else would they otherwise disagree with us on that would turn them into such angry bitches?

abortion is healthcare like the ICE pritesters that got killed is healthcare, except total innocence is not in question.
