Selena Gomez Fans Slam 'Saved by the Bell' Reboot for Joking About Singer's Kidney Transplant - Billboard

Selena Gomez fans are defending the singer after her health was mocked during an episode of Peacock’s reboot of Saved by the Bell.

25 on the NBCUniversal’s streaming service Peacock, two high school students are seen arguing about who the donor was for Gomez's kidney transplant in 2017.

“I know for a fact that Selena Gomez's kidney donor was Justin Bieber's mom.

In a later scene, the words “Does Selena Gomez even have a kidney?” are written near some lockers on the walls of the high school.

Many took to social media to call for the removal of Saved by the Bell from Peacock, and started the trend "RESPECT SELENA GOMEZ" on Twitter.

In September 2017, Gomez revealed she had undergone a kidney transplant to combat her lupus, an autoimmune and inflammatory disease that sometimes causes kidney failure, when she posted an Instagram picture of hers holding hands with grown-ish star and kidney donor Raisa in their adjacent hospital beds
