Singer with billions of views faces criticism.

Jason Derulo faced criticism after showing off his sharks at his California mansion. Animal rights organizations argued that the singer was promoting the keeping of wild animals as pets.

According to Page Six , Jason Derulo is facing mixed reactions after showing off his $1 million shark as a pet inside his California mansion.

Specifically, the "Whatcha Say" singer once gave YouTuber N3on a tour of his $15 million home in Tarzana, California. In the video , Derulo revealed a custom-designed aquarium, recessed into the living room floor. The aquarium is circular, with a glass top so guests can walk on it, while sharks and stingrays swim underneath.

The 36-year-old singer said that building this aquarium took a lot of time and money. He hired a pool construction company to build the frame, and then a team specializing in aquariums completed the entire system. To maintain the aquarium, Derulo said that a professional team comes to his house every two days to check the water quality and clean the tank.

The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) has voiced its opposition, arguing that celebrities displaying sharks in their homes could contribute to the normalization of keeping wild animals as pets or ornaments. Christian Plowman, IFAW's wildlife cybercrime program manager, cited the seizure of over 700 illegally trafficked marine creatures in Argentina as an example.

IFAW also urged the public to dislike, share, or interact with content that normalizes the keeping of wild animals as pets. The organization argues that each interaction contributes to feeding the algorithm, thereby indirectly fueling demand for the wildlife trade.

On social media, many users also criticized Derulo. One account commented that the act was "cruel," while another wrote: "Being rich is truly sad." However, in California, keeping some small, non-endangered shark species in home aquariums is still considered legal. Nevertheless, animal welfare groups have long opposed this practice.
