Selena Gomez And Hailey Baldwin As Never Been Seen Before
Selena Gomez and Hailey Baldwin are a duo many of us never pictured side by side, nonetheless taking a picture together. Yet, it happened.
Selena and Hailey were both present at the Academy of Motion Pictures’ 2nd annual gala last Saturday night in Los Angeles. The model and the pop superstar seemed to be on good terms with each other as they smiled while posing for a photo together. In one photo, Selena has her hand in Hailey’s leg, and in another, she smiles big for the while embracing the model.
The images have made the rounds on internet with hundreds of thousands of reposts and countless likes and comments.
“Tyrell just photographed history… this will be your most iconic pic of the year, I fear,” wrote a commenter on photographer Tyrell Hampton’s post of Hailey and Selena.
“The internet is going to break,” wrote another. “The world is healing,” said a third.
Hailey’s interview
Just a month ago, Hailey was invited to Alex Cooper’s podcast. She addressed the rumours of a feud between her and Selena.
Hailey made clear that she did not steal Justin Bieber away from Selena. She directly said that it is “not [her] character to mess with someone’s relationship” and added that it’s “all love” between both her and Justin’s former partner
“I can say, point blank, I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody – that’s the end of it,” Hailey said.
Hailey, 25, and Justin, 28, have been married for four years.
The complicated dynamic between Selena Gomez, Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber
Hailey and Justin met at one of his Today Show appearances back in 2009. The teens at the time were introduced by Hailey’s father, Stephen Baldwin.
They reconnected in 2014, three years after Hailey outted herself as a Jelena supporter.
“She is beyond flawless and he’s ya know, he’s Bieber,” Hailey wrote in 2012. “They are the perfect relationship… forever alone.
She also tweeted: “I don’t care what anyone says but Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez together is the definiton of a teenage dream.”
The tweets have since been deleted.
Justin on Hailey
Justin and Hailey were together until 2016. Before breaking up, Justin spoke out their relationship in an interview with GQ Magazine.
“I don’t want to put anyone in a position where they feel like I’m only theirs, only to be hurt in the end. Right now in my life, I don’t want to be held down by anything. I already have a lot that I have to commit to. A lot of responsibilities. I don’t want to feel like the girl I love is an added responsibility. I know that in the past I’ve hurt people and said things that I didn’t mean to make them happy in the moment. So now I’m just more so looking at the future, making sure I’m not damaging them,” Justin said.
“What if Hailey ends up being the girl I’m gonna marry, right? If i rush into anything, if I damage her, then it’s always gonna be damaged. It’s really hard to fix wound like that. It’s so hard… I just don’t want to hurt her,” he added.
After breaking up with Hailey, Justin and Selena had a months-long reunion which lasted from October 2017 until March 2018.
In September 2018, Justin and Hailey got married at a civil ceremony in New York. They had a larger ceremony in South Carolina a year later.
You can say the timeline is a bit confusing with these three.
Not the first time Hailey speaks with Selena Gomez
Hailey revealed on the podcast that she and Selena had spoken to each other at some point after her 2018 wedding . she assured that there is “no drama” between them.
“That’s also why I feel like, well, if everybody on our side knows what happened and we’re good and we could walk away from it with clarity and respect, than that’s fine,” Hailey said.
Selena Gomez on Hailey Baldwin
In 2019, after releasing her song “Look At Her Know,” Selena Gomez talked about the Baldwin drama in an Instagram Live session.
She did not mention Hailey by name, but it was understood that she was talking about her.
“I am grateful for the response that the song is getting. I’m so grateful. However, I do not stand for women tearing women down.”
“I will never, ever be by that,” Selena added. “So please be kind to everyone. It doesn’t matter what the situation is, if you’re my fans don’t be rude to anybody, please. Don’t go off and say things that you just feel in the moment.”
In a recent TikTok Live, Selena explained that she is “all about kind words,” and that “words matter.”
“I think some of the things that I don’t even need to be aware of are just vile and disgusting. And it’s not fair because no one ever should be spoken to in the manner that I’ve seen.”
