A Hailey Bieber representative is dismissing the claims that he liked a video that mocked Selena Gomez and her fiance, Benny Blanco.
Last week, a Tiktok user said that Hailey, who is married to singer Justin Bieber, liked one of his previous videos, where they were mocking white and Gomez's previous photo shoot for Gomez for Interview Magazine. In that initial clip, the user of social networks showed some of the couple's photos, claiming that they could not “decide which one is the worst.”
However, the Hailey representative is now clearing the air, clarifying that he did not like that clip on Tiktok first.
“This never happened,” said the representative in a statement to Us Weekly Sunday. “This whole story has been manufactured by a content creator who seeks to capitalize on an old and tired narrative.”
After the separation of Gomez from Justin in 2018, after eight years of interior dates, there were rumors that he was fighting with Hailey. Speculation also followed Hailey and Justin marrying the knot in 2018, only months after he separated from the “weird” singer.
A renewed and speculated drama between the couple caused in 2023, when fans accused Hailey and her friend Kylie Jenner of making fun of Gomez's eyebrows. At that time, fans were even touring Hailey's social networks for alleged “evidence” that she has been copying Gomez or mocking her online.
Disney Channel student then took the opportunity to talk about rumors, making it clear that he did not support any of the hatred that Hailey was receiving.
“Hailey Bieber approached me and let me know that he has been receiving death threats and such hateful negativity,” Gomez wrote in his Instagram history in March 2023. “This is not what I support. No one should have to experience hate or intimidation. I have always advocated kindness and I really want all this to stop.”
Hailey then thanked Gomez for speaking, noting that they were arguing how “overcoming this in progress” about them. The founder of Rhode Beauty also apparently addressed part of the inaccuracy in rumors about her and Gomez.
“Things can always be taken out of context or built differently from those intended,” he continued. “We all need to be more reflective about what we publish and what we say, including myself.”
Months later, Hailey once again condemned the false claims about her and the singer of “Wolves”.
“I don't think it's about me, Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez,” he said while appearing in Bloomberg's The circuit In June 2023. “It is not about this bite between two women: it is about the vile and disgusting hatred that can come from completely invented and twisted and perpetuated narratives that can be really dangerous.”
She added: “And I think it is an opportunity to really defend unite people and not agree with the type of division it caused, because I do not agree with [it] … I don't like this idea of this person's team and this person's team. “
In September 2022, Hailey also said there was no bad blood between her and Gomez. During an appearance at Alex Cooper's Call your dad Podcast, explained: “She owes me nothing. None of us owes anyone except respect. I respect her a lot and I think there are no expectations. There is no drama personally. “
He also denied the rumors that he was “romantically involved” with her now husband while he was with Gomez. “When he and I began to connect or something like that, he was never in a relationship, at any time,” he said.
