Justin Bieber has caused outrage after leaving a ‘tasteless’ comment in the guestbook at the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam.

Bieber who is currently on tour in Europe – visited the famous home where Jewish wartime diarist Frank and her family hid from Nazi persecution for two years during the Holocaust. After spending an hour touring the home on Saturday, which opened as a museum in 1960, Bieber wrote a message in the guestbook, which read: ‘Truly inspiring to be able to come here. ‘Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber.’

The Anne Frank House staff-run Facebook page shared the singer’s comments. But since the the museum updated its page with Justin’s words, the Facebook post has garnered hundreds of comments expressing dismay over the young pop sensation’s presumptuous remarks. Many described it as ‘disrespectful,’ ‘disgusting’ and an ’embarrassment to Canadians.’ Hundreds of people took to Twitter to express outrage, branding the singer a ‘moron’ and ‘douche,’ leaving several to question whether he actually wrote such a shocking message. Buzzfeed reports that BBC reporter Anna Holligan received confirmation from the Anne Frank House press office.
