In the unpredictable realm of celebrity romances, Hailey Baldwin Bieber, 26, and Selena Gomez, 30, have endured their fair share of media scrutiny and public speculation, courtesy of their romantic ties with Justin Bieber, 29. The constant comparison and unnecessary rivalry between these two remarkable women have unfortunately fueled toxic behavior among a faction of their fervent fanbase.
However, in a surprising turn of events, Hailey, who has been married to Bieber for four years, made a heartfelt revelation on Instastory, voicing her disapproval of fans leaving "nasty" comments on Selena's posts. It's worth noting that despite the ongoing scrutiny Hailey and Selena still follow each other on Instagram, with the former even showing her support by liking the latter's recent post on Sunday, June 11.
'Please be nice or don't say anything!'
Moreover, the fire ignited when Selena's recent Instagram slideshow, titled 'Crazy about you Paris,' turned into a battleground of hurtful comments. With a staggering combined social media following of 69.8 million, the Rhode founder fearlessly stepped forward, rallying her own fans to stop the mean-spirited remarks aimed at her husband's former flame. "Just know that I don't want that, nor do I ever or will I ever support or condone hateful, mean, or nasty comments." she claimed.
"Doing that is not supporting me. If you are participating in that, you are a part of a culture that I want no part of. Please be nice or don't say anything." Hailey and the 'Calm Down' pop star who crossed paths at the Academy Museum Gala last year, have attempted to extinguish the flames of their fan-fueled feud for several years. In the past, Gomez spoke out against the negativity surrounding their supposed feud.

The 'Rare Beauty' mogul urged her massive fan base, consisting of 640 million "Selenators," to refrain from sending Hailey "death threats and hateful negativity," emphasizing the importance of kindness. In response, the 'Who's In My Bathroom' vlogger publicly expressed gratitude to Gomez for "speaking out" and discussing how they "can move past this ongoing narrative between her and I."
Although, it's important to remember that the feud between these two extraordinary women originated from their romantic connections with Justin Bieber. The roots of this rivalry can be traced back to when Gomez ended her on/off eight-year relationship with the pop star in March 2018, just three months before he rekindled his romance with Hailey. Surprisingly, many are unaware that Justin originally met Hailey, the daughter of famous father Stephen Baldwin, in the same year he met Selena.
