One of Hailey’s 2011 tweets reads: “I don’t care what anyone says but Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez together is the definition of a teenage dream!”
Last week, Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber’s rumored feud came back with a vengeance thanks to a whole heap of shady social media activity from both parties.

The two have been at the center of rivalry speculation since 2018, when Selena’s ex Justin Bieber married Hailey just six months after he’d split from the singer.

In October, Hailey and Selena attempted to quash the rumors when they were photographed together at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles, but it has all kicked off once again.

The latest drama started on Tuesday when Selena posted about “accidentally” laminating her eyebrows too much in a TikTok post.

Just three hours later, Hailey’s friend Kylie Jenner uploaded a selfie to her Instagram story with the text “this was an accident???” suspiciously placed by her eyebrows.

Not long after that, Kylie posted a screenshot from a FaceTime call with Hailey, where they had both zoomed in on their eyebrows.

People began to call Kylie and Hailey out for their “mean girl” behavior on social media, and Kylie quickly backtracked. Commenting on a TikTok that accused her and Hailey of being “childish,” Kylie wrote: “no shade towards selena ever and i didn’t see her eyebrow posts! u guys are making something out of nothing. this is silly.”

And Selena backed Kylie up, replying to the comment: “Agreed @kyliejenner. It’s all unnecessary. I’m a fan of Kylie!”

But on Thursday Selena appeared to reignite the drama when she left a shady comment on a resurfaced clip of Hailey from 2017.

In the video, which was posted to TikTok, Hailey can be seen pretending to gag when Selena’s best friend Taylor Swift is mentioned. Even though the video is almost six years old, Selena decided to leap to her bestie’s defense.

“So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game,” she wrote.

This decision divided people, with some accusing Selena of needlessly fueling the rivalry with the comment. But Selena continued to fan the flames, and she was seen commenting “I love you” on another TikToker’s video that implied that Hailey and Kylie are “mean girls” and “bitches.”
