Selena Gomez It is Hailey Bieber remain among the most commented subjects on social networks last weekend.
After alleged hints, comments and many rumors, one of the most talked about topics among Internet users is the theory that Hailey is “obsessed” with the singer since her teens.
The current controversy has impacted the image of Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez. While the model lost almost 500 thousand followers since the beginning of the situation, on February 22, the singer gained about 7 million, according to CrowdTangle, Meta’s own monitoring site.
In a summarized timeline, the rivalry between both stars has Justin bieber as the main thread.
The voice of the hit “Baby” had an on-and-off ten-year relationship with Selena Gomez, always surrounded by alleged betrayals and other controversies.
At the beginning of the relationship, “Jelena”, the name of the couple Justin and Selena, was one of the most “famous” in Hollywood.
Like many teenagers at the time, Hailey Bieber, who then served as Hailey Baldwin, proved to be a true fan of both singers – separately and as a couple.
At a certain age, the model and Justin Bieber began to relate and also experienced a “yo-yo” relationship. Apparently, when he wasn’t with the model, Bieber was with the singer and vice versa.
It was in 2018, shortly after the last “Jelena” breakup, that he and Hailey engaged in a stable relationship. A year later, they were married.
Since then, little has been said about the “rivalry” between the stars. At the end of 2022, they posed together during a gala event in the US, putting an end to the alleged fight and disagreements.
In 2023
The return of confusion among celebrities happened after Selena Gomez was clicked by paparazzi while enjoying a sunny day on a speedboat. Comments criticizing the singer’s body took over social media.
Shortly thereafter, Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner published a TikTok lip syncing: “I’m not saying she deserved it, but God’s time is always right”, which was considered by many netizens as an indirect to the artist.

Days later, Selena Gomez published a video, on the same platform, in which she dubbed an audio of model Bella Hadid, who was dating The Weeknd before Gomez engaged in a relationship with the artist, which ended in 2018.
Fans of the Jenner clan, Bieber and Hadid, who form a “squad” of very close friends, criticized the position of Selena Gomez, claiming that the singer would be desperate for attention by mentioning the ex-girlfriend of her own ex.
In this same video, Selena comments that she had an accident with her own eyebrows. On the same day, Kylie Jenner posted a story of her face asking: “Was that an accident?”.
Soon after, the socialite shared a print of a video call with Hailey Bieber, where the focus is on both eyebrows.
Jenner, after all the controversy, went to the networks to say that he did not know about the video of Selena Gomez and that everything was a big nonsense. The singer agreed, in a comment, saying that she adores Kylie.
A day later, Selena Gomez commented on an old video in which Hailey Bieber makes an ugly face when hearing the name of Taylor Swift, one of Selena’s closest friends.
After attacks from all sides, both Selena and Hailey, the singer revealed that she was leaving social networks after all this.
Fans of the model point out that, again, the singer starts controversy to draw attention and then “plays the victim” taking a break from the networks.
However, the massive part of netizens is on the side of the singer. Over the weekend, TikTok videos and Twitter threads exposing Hailey Bieber’s alleged obsession with Selena Gomez were all the rage.
In them, prints, videos and old images were exposed where they show Hailey being a big fan of the singer and, in addition, of the then couple “Jelena”, as Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were known.
Netizens report how Hailey tried to get close to Selena’s close friends and how she ends up “copying” the singer in subtle ways, such as similar tattoos or mentions of artists that Selena Gomez was shortly before.

One of the biggest controversies involving the “love triangle” is about the new year of 2014, when Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, close friends of Hailey, invited Selena to spend New Year’s Eve in Dubai.
Fans have the theory that the friends planned to keep Selena and Justin away so that Hailey could spend New Year’s Eve with the singer.
Netizens used Twitter and TikTok to point out evidence of Hailey Bieber’s “obsession” with Selena Gomez.
However, many people also believe that these are just coincidences. Check out some below:
