, something Gomez has avoided doing for literal years. What is happening?!
The video in question was a clip of Hailey Bieber’s appearance on , taken by one of her haters and posted to TikTok.
In the video, rapper teases a “rap battle of the meanest lyrics about a celebrity since ‘s last album”, to which Hailey mimes gagging to. Like, she stuck her finger in her mouth and pretended to vomit.
Obviously not a classy move, but also, this video is resurfaced. It’s old news!
But despite this, Selena Gomez for some reason jumped into the comments and defended Taylor who she’s close friends with.
“So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be the best in the game,” she wrote, which I would take as an obvious calling out of Hailey’s antics.
What I don’t understand is why?
The video was captioned “THISS is real Hailey ‘Bieber'” and is clearly posted on a Jelena (AKA /Selena Gomez) fan account that hates on Hailey. It’s hashtags include #jelena, #haileycopycat, #exposing, #jaileyisfake, #haileyisobsessedwithselena, #cancelhaileybieber and #exposinghaileybaldwin.
Of course, it also included tags about Selena and Rare Beauty but I have to ask: how TF did Selena Gomez find this troll video and more importantly, why did she engage with it?
I love her as much as the next gal but it just seems so random, especially considering she has worked so hard .
Why give more fuel to the rumours the two are feuding?
Some of her fans felt the same way, which might potentially be the reason she has since deleted her entire account. Like, it’s just straight up not there anymore.
According to , she did warn fans that she was leaving before she logged off.
“I’m good. I love who I am, I don’t care. I’m big, I’m not, I don’t care. I love who I am,” she said.
“And yeah, I’m gonna be taking a second from social media ’cause this is a little silly. And I’m 30, I’m too old for this.
Selena has left social media before for her mental health. She returned to Instagram after four years just last month, and her documentary explores how much social media can affect her.
The spicy comment and axing of her TikTok comes off the back of another TikTok Selena posted of her “accidentally” over-laminated brows captioned: “I wish I was as pretty as “. AKA, the woman whose relationship with overlapped her own. The ex of her ex.
It was an odd move, especially because of Selena’s ethos of everyone being beautiful the way they are. It meant legions of fans flooded her comments with reassurances like “No, YOU’RE so pretty!” which, like, yes she — it’s the self-love her brand relies on — so why post this?
Of course, some fans reckon the Instagram Stories and Hailey Bieber put up after that TikTok may have led to Selena having a go.
The two posted close-ups of their eyebrows onto Kylie’s IG stories and it certainly looked like a passive-aggressive mocking of Selena’s brows in her TikTok. Plus, Selena recently unseated Kylie as the most followed woman on Instagram, so there’s that.
the claims, and then Selena also said she doesn’t think Kylie was coming for her. Which normally would make me let this all go, but there’s been so much inconsistency lately with Selena and who she’s beefing with that I truly do not know what to believe. I mean, what about ?!
And all this drama has happened in the same week.
Honestly, this all feels like such petty high school drama. What are we, in year 9 again?
