Selena Gomez Defends Best Friend Taylor Swift After Video of Hailey Bieber Diss Resurfaces

She keeps her side of the street clean. After video of Hailey Bieber (née Baldwin) reportedly criticising Taylor Swift surfaced again, Selena Gomez threw her support behind the pop diva.

In a clip shared via TikTok, As Swift was referenced by Drop the Mic cohost Method Man, Bieber pretended to throw up. As the New York native, 51, teased “a one-on-one rap battle full of the meanest lyrics about a celebrity since Taylor Swift’s last album,” the model stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes.

By using snake emojis in the text, the social media user who posted the video stated that Bieber was a “mean girl” and a “bully”. Gomez, 30, proceeded to defend the “Dear John” singer in the comments section.

“So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game,” the Only Murders in the Building actress wrote on Thursday, February 23.

Since their separate relationships with Nick Jonas and Joe Jonas in 2008, Gomez and Swift have been a dynamic duo. The women have been each other’s fiercest supporters in the spotlight, with the former Disney Channel star even referring to Swift as her “only friend” in Hollywood.

“I never fit in with a cool group of girls that were celebrities,” the Rare Beauty founder told Rolling Stone in a November 2022 interview. “My only friend in the industry really is Taylor Swift, so I remember feeling like I didn’t belong.”

The “Mirrorball” singer explained in January 2020 that Gomez makes her feel protective of her. “I knew from when I met her I would always have her back,” she said at the time. “In my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I don’t know if I can forgive someone who hurts her.”

While Gomez and Swift get along like old friends, the Spring Breakers actress’ relationship with Bieber has a more turbulent pastThe Arizona native and Justin Bieber became engaged in July 2018, four months after their last breakup with Selena Gomez.

The “Baby” artist, 28, and Hailey exchanged vows at a New York City courthouse in late 2018, hosting a second wedding ceremony in South Carolina one year later. On the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in September 2022, Hailey gave more details on the timeline of her hasty engagement and marriage.

“It’s hard for me to talk about this because I don’t want to talk on either one of their behalf because it was their relationship,” she confessed. “I honestly respect that very deeply. As a woman, I would never want to get into a relationship with someone and be engaged to them and be getting married to them and think in the back of my mind, ‘I wonder if that was really closed for you.’ I know for a fact that the reason we were able to get back together was because it was very much completely closed.”

Hailey said she wanted to clear up the confusion once and for all. “A lot of the hate and perpetuation comes from people thinking, like, ‘Oh, you stole him,’” she added, emphasizing that she wanted fans to know the “truth” about the two relationships. “I think it was the best thing that could have happened for him to move on and be engaged and get married and move on with his life in that way.”

The skincare guru later revealed that she and Gomez have spoken since her wedding to Justin. “That’s why I’m like, it’s all respect, it’s all love,” she said. “That’s also why I feel like if everybody on our side knows what happened and we’re good and we could walk away from it with clarity and respect then that’s fine.”

One month after, Hailey and the “Wolves” artist snapped a photo together at the annual gala for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. When asked whether there was any drama between her and her ex’s wife in November 2022, Gomez insisted to Vulture, “It’s not even a thing.”
