  • Hailey Baldwin responded to haters who are upset that she’s celebrating Halloween even though she’s religious.

  • She made it very clear that she has no plans to stop trick-or-treating!


Today in news that you weren’t expecting, Hailey Baldwin is defending the rights of Christians everywhere to celebrate Halloween, because it’s October and things are getting spooky.

Hailey recently posted about the holiday on her Insta stories, writing, “Give me ideas of Halloween!!!!” And rather than giving her ideas like she politely asked for, some people decided to start trolling her instead. One follower responded, “Aren't u a Christian?” to which Hailey replied, “Yes. I still dress up for Halloween.” Another wrote, “FAKE CHRISTIAN,” and Hailey responded with, “Our kids are gonna celebrate too :)” (referring to her future kids with Justin Bieber).

And just to drive the point home, Hailey also reposted a very long and intense Instagram rant by a fellow Hillsonger about celebrating Halloween while Christian which said:

“I’m a Christian. Do you have any idea what that means historically? It means I redefine everything in culture. Pagan Feast of Winter Solstice? Oh that’s now JESUS BIRTHDAY. Pagan Feast of Spring Planting? Oh that’s now EASTER WEEKEND. Pagan Celtic Festival involving dressing up and warding off evil spirits? Oh now it’s All Saints Day and we celebrate the VICTORIOUS CHURCH THAT HAS OVERCOME THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB!!! CANDY PLEASE!

I’m not afraid of the world. I’m not afraid of any devil or demon or incantation. They are terrified of me. Halloween is now MY HOLIDAY and I am claiming all candy for the glory of God and the celebration of the Saints. What now? I’ll dress up however I like! My favorite characters, pop culture stuff, whatever. It’s my party and you’re invited. I’m alive today and a Saint tomorrow. Give me candy.”

Hailey has since deleted the reposted Insta story, but, uh, I think it’s still safe to say that she’ll be celebrating Halloween this year!
