I suppose we can call Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber’s feud back on, and you better know the “Lose You to Love Me” singer’s fans have been waiting for this day.
Following “eyebrow gate,” aka Kylie Jenner and Justin Bieber’s wife’s alleged mean girl behavior, Gomez announced a social media break. Her fans are trolling the proud repo with recollections of her past infatuation with the Only Murders in the Building actor and the Biebs.
According to Cinema Blend, Selena Gomez’s loyal followers have started bringing out old, since-deleted tweets from Hailey Bieber that reveal she was a “Jelena” fan back when Justin Bieber was still with his ex.. As one fan tweeted:
Others have found a picture of Hailey Bieber (then Hailey Baldwin) holding a magazine with the covers of Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber.
The model appeared to like not just them as a couple, but also the Wizards of Waverly Place star herself. Other tweets circa 2011 and 2012 supposedly showed Hailey showering Jelena with compliments like:
- Selena Gomez is so cute. Don’t argue.
- seriously though. She is beyond flawless and he’s ya know he’s Bieber. They are the perfect relationship.. -_- forever alone.
- Selena Gomez is so friggin good-looking.
- [Selena Gomez] looks HOT in her new music video! 🎂🎂🎂
The dispute between Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber started in 2018 after Justin Bieber broke his eight-year on-off relationship with Gomez and became engaged to Hailey a few months later.
During the Call, Her Daddy podcast last year, Stephen Baldwin’s daughter dispelled suspicions about the relationships overlap, and she spoke up about the bullying she’d received from Gomez’s supporters over the years.
Selena Gomez also spoke out at the time about how “words matter,” and it was assumed that the drama had passed when the women posed for a viral photo at the Academy Museum Gala.
It turned out to possibly not be the case, as Hailey Bieber was accused of shading the My Mind & Me singer in a TikTok video with Kendall Jenner in February after Gomez was body shamed for her bikini images.
