Selena Gomez fans claim ‘simmering feud’ with Hailey Bieber is STILL not over

[ad_1]

Selena Gomez fans claim there is social media feud simmering between the former Disney star and model Hailey Bieber, despite both parties insisting otherwise. 

Bieber has been the target of merciless trolling from obsessive Gomez fans – who refer to themselves as ‘Selenators’ – after apparently mocking the singer and actress in a recent TikTok video. 

Joined by close friends Kendall Jenner and Justine Skye, the model was accused of referencing a set of unflattering paparazzi photos featuring a bikini-clad Gomez, taken during a January beach-break in Mexico. 

Lip syncing their way through a short video, the friends proclaim: ‘I’m not saying she deserves it, but God’s timing is always right!’ 

The post was swiftly deleted, but the negative reaction it inevitably prompted led to Bieber publicly insisting her poorly timed video had nothing to do with Gomez.

‘I never comment on this type of thing but we were just having a girls’ night and did a random TikTok sound for fun,’ she assured disgruntled followers. ‘It’s not directed at anyone.’ 

In an apparent attempt to placate her fans, Gomez also threw her two-cents’ worth into the mix by responding to Bieber’s claim, adding: ‘It’s ok! I don’t let these things get me down! Be nice to everyone!’

However, worse was to follow when fans accused Kylie Jenner of mocking another Gomez post, in which the star admitted she had ‘accidentally laminated’ her brows too much.

Taking to Instagram, Jenner adopted a similar pose with the same arched eyebrows and the accompanying caption: ‘This was an accident ?????’ 

Curiously, the TV personality appeared to add even more fuel to the fire by sharing a recent FaceTime call with Bieber – during which they both zoomed in on their eyebrows. 

The uproar resulted in Jenner reportedly losing half a million social media followers,  while Bieber’s following went down by close to a million in total.

Conversely, Gomez saw her following increased by 10 million as a result of the online trolling accusations aimed at the pair.  

Gomez and Bieber were last seen cheerfully posing for photos together at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles last year, but detective-like fans have since savaged the meeting by claiming the photographer is one of Bieber’s friends.

Online blogger Deuxmoi now claims the alleged feud stems from Justin Bieber embarking on a relationship with his now wife just weeks after dumping Gomez. 

The former Disney star is also said to be upset over Justin and manager Scooter Braun’s apparent gloating after the latter bought her best friend Taylor Swift’s back-catalogue.

Fueling the flames, Selena commented on the video: ‘So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game.’

Bieber’s identical posts, usually shared within days of her own, are another alleged factor in the fallout.

Speaking on Apple TV+ docu-series, Dear… Gomez recalled privately struggling over criticism of her fluctuating weight from social media followers. 

Gomez, who previously revealed her lupus medication causes her to gain weight, described portraying herself online as someone who didn’t care about the criticism – when in reality she was ‘crying my eyes out’.

‘My weight would constantly fluctuate because I would be on certain medications. And obviously, people just ran with it,’ she said.
