While Justin Bieber is definitely still a household name, back in the 20-teens, there was a Justin Bieber craze, and everyone wanted a piece of him. One video in particular shows just how much of a following he had: the 2012 American Music Awards. While he was receiving Best Pop/Rock Album of the year, announcer Jenny McCarthy essentially assaulted him—and now the video is going viral again. Keep reading for more information.

Jenny McCarthy ‘Violates’ Justin Bieber

In the video, the playboy model, 40, announced Justin Bieber’s win, and as soon as he got on stage, she grabbed Justin by the neck with two hands around his throat and starts kissing his neck, cheek, and potentially a little bit of his ear. She then pushed him towards the microphone by his butt.

The first thing 18-year-old Justin Bieber said? “Wow! I feel violated right now!”

And what’s worse? Later on in the evening during a red carpet interview, McCarthy was asked how her night was and she replied: “I just got to knack Justin Bieber and grab his butt.” No remorse!

Social Media Reactions

The video of this altercation is going viral again on social media, prompting a new wave of comments from fans who are straight up canceling Jenny McCarthy. "Jenny McCarthy should feel ashamed along with every other adult that mauled that child."

"Shame on you, Jenny McCarthy," another agreed. "Wow, really, that was not funny in any situation at any time in history."

"Oh my god...embarrassing!" one person wrote. "What a creep!"

"She assaulted him," a fourth person added. "She's so creepy! Time to own up for her disgusting behavior."

"And no one did anything??" a final person asked. "I'm disgusted."
