In the realm of celebrity drama and social media feuds, alliances are often unexpected yet significant. The latest development in the ongoing saga involving Selena Gomez, Hailey Bieber, and their respective fan bases has brought Jennifer Lopez into the spotlight in an unexpected way.

Jennifer Lopez, renowned for her multifaceted career spanning music, dance, acting, and production, is no stranger to the glare of the public eye. However, it’s her recent social media actions that have captured the attention of Selena Gomez’s loyal fan base.

The backstory to this unfolding drama traces back to the intertwined history of Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber. The former couple’s relationship, marked by years of on-and-off dating, eventually led to Bieber’s marriage to Hailey Bieber (formerly Baldwin). Since then, tensions between Gomez and Hailey Bieber have simmered in the public eye, fueled by fan speculation and social media interactions.

In a surprising turn of events, it was revealed that Jennifer Lopez had unfollowed Hailey Bieber on Instagram last year. This decision, seemingly innocuous on the surface, resonated deeply with Selena Gomez’s supporters. The unfollowing occurred amidst a flurry of social media activity in 2023, which saw Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez embroiled in a feud, sparked by various online interactions.

While both Bieber and Gomez denied any direct feud, the fallout was palpable, with Hailey Bieber losing a substantial number of Instagram followers amid the controversy. Jennifer Lopez’s decision to unfollow Hailey Bieber was interpreted by many as a show of solidarity with Gomez, a sentiment reinforced by the longstanding friendship between Lopez and Gomez.

The bond between Jennifer Lopez and Selena Gomez extends beyond mere social media gestures. The two artists have shared a mutual respect for years, exemplified by their collaboration in 2021 for a fundraiser supporting COVID-19 vaccinations.

JLo’s unfollowing of Hailey Bieber was not an isolated incident among celebrities. Notably, other prominent figures such as Jenna Ortega and Zendaya also clicked the unfollow button during the same period, further emphasizing the divisiveness of the situation.

What Happened Between Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber In 2023?

Hailey Beiber lost more than a million followers in 2023 and the events leading up to the action began with Selena Gomez posting a TikTok. In the video, Gomez claimed that she said “laminated her brows too much”.

Just three hours later, Kylie Jenner posted a picture zoomed in on her eyebrow. Further, the same day, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Justine Skye shared a video of them lip-syncing to “I’m not saying she deserved it, but I’m saying God’s timing is always right.” While the connection of this to the Selena Gomez video might be a stretch, fans were quick to target Jenner and Beiber for allegedly mocking the “Calm Down” singer.

Needless to say, Seleners have always had a feud with Hailey Bieber because of the connection with Justin Bieber. Gomez and Bieber dated for a long time before he finally engaged and married Hailey.
