[post on Instagram](https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2023/02/selena-gomez-hollywood-issue-2023) on her behalf, she likes the video platform better. Selena assured her fans that she loves them and is very happy, and that the break won't be too long. UPDATE: Selena is hitting the pause button on social media for a bit. Of course, it's worth noting that this clip is not current and it's not entirely clear from the brief segment if this was a joke, but fans are up in arms over the gesture — and Selena hopped into the comments to stand by Taylor. At one point in the video, which is a few years old, the name "Taylor Swift" is mentioned regarding her lyrics and Hailey visibly gags, pretending to stick her finger down her throat as the crowd laughs.

I went through a hard time in a breakup and I didn’t want to see any of the [feedback] — not necessarily about the relationship, but the opinions of me versus [someone] else,” she told the magazine. … I just didn’t like who I was, because I didn’t know who I was.” [went on the Call Her Daddy](https://open.spotify.com/episode/0EBTCiYZl535zGYjbC6LXo) podcast and shared that there was “no drama” between the two women.

Hailey Bieber was seen gagging at the mention of Taylor Swift in a resurfaced video on TikTok. Selena Gomez responded.

The supposed drama between the pop star and model dates back to 2018, when Justin Bieber proposed to Hailey six months after his final breakup with on-and-off girlfriend Gomez, leading to allegations that Hailey “ [stole](https://www.glamour.com/story/hailey-bieber-wants-people-to-know-the-truth-about-justin-and-selena-gomez)” the “Baby” singer, blah, blah, blah.

Selena Gomez is giving up social media, again, amid speculation about a feud with Hailey Bieber. The singer-actor is taking 'a break from everything.'

“And I just snapped, and I was over it.” And I just thought, ‘Why would I — I don’t get anything from it. When Vulture asked Gomez about those photos, she said, “Yeah, it’s not a big deal. It’s not even a thing.” “I felt like my thoughts and everything I was consuming revolved around a million different other people in the world saying good things and bad things. But I love you guys so much and I will see you guys sooner than later.” Jenner has “And I’m 30, I’m too old for this.

Selena Gomez says she will step back from social media and is “too old” for recent TikTok drama. Fans had speculated that Kylie Jenner and Hailey Bieber ...

“So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game,” Gomez [comments](https://twitter.com/PopCrave/status/1628798949610987522). [stepping away](https://twitter.com/PopCrave/status/1628865745416343554) from social media. The video is overlaid with text that claims Bieber is a “mean girl” and a “Bully.” The caption also includes snake and rat emojis. TikTok user @ellenacuario posts a [video](https://www.tiktok.com/@ellenacuario/video/7186742923239640366) reacting to this theory, and asks, “Isn’t Hailey the one that, like, begged Selena to tell off her fans for bullying her?” Her video caption references Bieber’s maiden name and reads, “That whole BALDWIN clan needs to go.” Gomez replies in the comments section, “It’s ok! One is a selfie of Jenner captioned, “this was an accident???” The other is a screenshot of a FaceTime call with Bieber, where both women have moved their faces — and thus their eyebrows — close to the camera. I love who I am”), but says that she will be I’m just gonna just take a break from everything.” Her decision comes after fans recently theorized that Gomez has been shaded online by both Hailey Bieber (who is married to [Gomez’s ex](https://www.vulture.com/2019/10/selena-gomez-new-song-justin-bieber.html), Justin Bieber) and Kylie Jenner (whom Gomez just [passed](https://etcanada.com/news/970888/selena-gomez-passes-kylie-jenner-to-become-the-most-followed-woman-on-instagram/) to become the most-followed woman on Instagram). [TikTok video](https://www.tiktok.com/@duckcopycat0/video/7202693844599655685) that appears to show Bieber pretending to gag after hearing Swift’s name. “I’m gonna be taking a second from social media, because this is a little silly,” Gomez [announced](https://twitter.com/PopCrave/status/1628865745416343554) during a TikTok Live on Thursday. In the video, Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Justine Skye are lip-syncing to a viral audio that says, “I’m not saying she deserves it, but God’s timing is always right.” [getting body-shamed](https://www.glamour.com/story/selena-gomez-bikini-vacation-comments) after recently wearing a bikini on vacation. @riristea wonders if the video might be a subtle message to someone, but Bieber herself appears in the comments section to deny this.

How a video on laminated brows, Hailey Bieber, and Kylie Jenner ended in Selena Gomez defending Taylor Swift and deleting her TikTok.

“This is reaching,” [Jenner wrote in the comments](https://www.tiktok.com/@devotedly.yours/video/7203178307498593578). “So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game,” Gomez wrote. [@devotedly.yours](https://www.tiktok.com/@devotedly.yours/video/7203010170912492846), broke down her interpretation of the “shade,” prompting both Jenner and Gomez to respond. [Bieber said](https://www.thecut.com/2022/10/hailey-bieber-justin-bieber-selena-gomez.html) in an interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast last year. “I have every right to defend my friends,” she wrote, per a screenshot shared by Stephanie Tleiji, aka Last year, [Gomez denied making fun of Bieber ](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/selena-gomez-hailey-bieber-tiktok_n_627c1d68e4b010453ae06839)in a skincare TikTok video posted earlier that year. Now four months later, things took a turn for the worst, when a post from Gomez about her over-laminated brows and some perceived shade from [Kylie Jenner](https://www.thecut.com/2023/02/kylie-jenner-postpartum-depression.html) ended in the singer leaving the platform entirely. This is silly.” Gomez agreed, later commenting that she was a “fan” of Jenner’s. “I’m gonna be taking a second from social media ‘cause this is a little silly and I’m 30. The model has long denied any bad blood between them, but their fans have known to fight each other in the comments on social media. Gomez’s exodus from TikTok comes after a few days of speculation around her relationship with Bieber, who married Gomez’s ex, Justin Bieber, very soon after their final breakup, causing years of speculation. This isn’t the first time Gomez has stepped away from social media.

Gomez, who is close with Swift, wrote in the comments, “So sorry, my best friend is and continues to be one of the best in the game.” She is also referred to as a “mean girl” and a “bully” in the text overlay.
