Selena Gomez Says ‘Words Matter’ After Hailey Bieber Interview

Selena Gomez is telling fans that “words matter.” This comes after Hailey Bieber’s interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, the model opened up about her marriage to Justin Bieber. She also revealed what led them to get married so young.

She admitted that while they were young (and still are), it worked out. Hailey also shared the truth about what really went down when Justin left his ex-girlfriend Selena for her. To this day, fans blame Hailey for the demise of “Jelena,” aka Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. Both ladies have gotten their share of hate on social media for what happened.

Hailey Bieber speaks her truth

During the Wednesday broadcast of the Call Her Daddy podcast with Alexandra Cooper, Hailey Bieber addressed the rumors that she stole Justin Bieber from Selena Gomez. The Canadian star was in an off-and-off relationship with the former Disney star for eight years. Fans saw them as #RelationshipGoals even though they had their issues.

For instance, Justin was involved with many women during the years. Even Hailey admitted it in her interview. She didn’t want to call him a “f***boy,” but that’s what she noticed with him. Hailey also revealed that he was in pain during those years.

Hailey then denied the accusations that she stole Justin away from Selena. During that time, fans called her a “homewrecker.” Alexandra bluntly asked Hailey if she ever dated the pop star while he was with Selena Gomez. Hailey made it clear that she’s not that type of woman.

“It’s not my character to mess with someone’s relationship. I would just never do that. I was raised better than that. I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody. That’s the end of it.”

She explained the timeline of their relationship. Hailey explained that they were friends for years before anything romantic happened between them. The times they “hooked up” was when Justin was single. Yet, Hailey admitted their relationship moved too quickly into marriage.

Kendall Jenner’s BFF got a lot of hate for that interview. Selena Gomez fans accused her of name-dropping the Only Murders in the Building star in the interview. Others argued that she has nothing in her life to talk about except the love triangle. Hailey insisted that she had to tell her truth.

Selena Gomez addresses fan backlash

Selena Gomez doesn’t want to be dragged into the discussion anymore. She shared a new TikTok video addressing the fan backlash. The Selena & the Chef star reminded her fans that “words matter.” She quickly wanted to quash the rumors that she was feuding with Hailey over Justin.

“I think some of the things I don’t even need to be aware of are just vile and disgusting,” Selena Gomez said. “And it’s not fair. No one should ever be spoken to in the manner that I’ve seen.”

She championed for women to empower one another. Selena said that it was “incredibly ironic” that her projects are about “kind words” despite what her fans have done to Hailey for years. She thanked them for their ongoing support of her Rare makeup brand. She then shared a little bit of advice that’s much needed.
