Justin Bieber's joke about Stevie Wonder’s FaceTime call is something you can only believe if you read it yourself.
The hitmaker, who has been facing some challenges recently with the social media storm against him, took to Instagram to let loose yesterday (April 10).
Recently, he has been quite active on Instagram, posting content regularly and updating fans on his life, some of which has worried those reading them.

However, it was a post about the 'Isn’t She Lovely' legend that has got everyone talking this week.
Yesterday, Bieber posted to his Instagram Stories a little screenshot of himself trying to call Wonder on FaceTime, and his comment was absolutely savage.
Bieber and Wonder have previously performed together on two occasions in 2011 as they sang 'Someday at Christmas' at a charity benefit show in LA and again, when they performed 'The Christmas Song' on The X Factor TV show.

When it came to his Instagram Stories, he decided to get funny about the 25-time Grammy winner's blindness.
"This fool never sees my facetimessss," wrote Bieber over a photo of himself smiling at the camera.
Maybe he was waiting for Wonder, 74, to answer the call?
Wonder wasn’t born blind, which might come as a surprise to many.

According to the singer, who spoke with Wesley Morris and former US president Barack Obama on The Wonder of Stevie podcast, he explained: "I was born. Shortly after that, I’m blind. My mother went through the different things, and so my experience with that was deep.”
He said that his mother would cry ‘every night’ which led him to tell her: “Mama, you shouldn’t cry, you’re making my head hurt.”
“And I said, ‘Maybe God has something for me that’s bigger than all this'."

Of course, he was correct as he has gone on to have an extensive music career with many accolades that other singers could only dream of having.
Bieber has been very active online, with some of his posts sparking concern for his wellbeing.
In one instance, he wrote: "People told me my whole life 'wow Justin u deserve that' and I personally have always felt unworthy, like I was a fraud," he wrote. "Like when people told me I deserve something, it made me feel sneaky like, damn if they only knew my thoughts.

"How judgemental I am, how selfish I really am, they wouldn't be saying this. I say all this to say, if you feel sneaky welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days."
Another post saw the singer share that he hated himself, and also how he was always taught not to have hate in his heart, but he struggled with the notion as he had been hurt by experiences in life.
As of now, rumors are rife that he and his wife are separating, however, none of these claims have been substantiated and are being toted as social media fluff.
