One of Big Brother's former contestants made a vile statement about Gary Barlow’s stillborn baby, and it has caused mass anger.
Reports said that Kenneth Tong made a series of offensive statements on his Twitter account about the Take That member late daughter Poppy, who was delivered stillborn last week.
Fellow users of the social site condemn Tong for making harsh comment about Barlow and his wife.
Tong had been targeting both Gary and his wife Dawn with his sick messages throughout the week.
Aside from making a joke about the about the situation, Tong also posted a picture of a child's coffin alongside more sickening comments.
Because of the online protest, Kenneth Tong began trending globally, and his followers reached nearly 180,000.
Twitter users were quick on defending the ITV reality show judge. They even started a campaign that will get Tong’s profile shut down on Twitter.
Big Brother's Bit On The Side presenter, Jamie East said: 'Nothing would make me happier today than seeing Kenneth Tong going to prison. What an absolutely hateful, hateful human being.'
While Professor Green wrote: '@MrKennethTong never in my life seen such a disgusting case of attention seeking… please never have children.'
Other users seek the help of some stars so that they would sue their celebrity influence to spread the word and get Tong's account closed.
The only account that Tong was following on the social network was that of British model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Apparently Rosie blocked him earlier today after seeing his messages.
This is not the first controversy that Tong was involved with; he already caused controversy back in 201. He got death threats because of launching a pro-anorexia campaign.
During that time, he advertised a slimming pill on Twitter through the use of disruptive statements in an effort to persuade girls in endorsing a 'controlled anorexia' scheme to become a size zero.
Celebrities such as Rihanna, Katy Perry and Simon Cowell all blasted him for his foul comments, which he later claimed were a joke.
He later told The Sun: 'Even my own friends have turned against me - but it was an exercise that I wanted to keep up for a week.
'I love to be challenged. It was so illogical a concept. It did not make sense but so many people bought into it. I proved how easy it is to become a global phenomena in the age of instant media.'
He also befriended and stuck up for user Rileyy_69, who got arrested right after he abuses Olympic diver Tom Daley about his dead father via Twitter.
