• Hailey Bieber is accused of copying Selena Gomez’s past speech after her remarks at the Daily Front Row’s Fashion Awards sparked comparisons online.
• A viral TikTok video highlighted similarities between Hailey’s speech about Rhode Skin and Selena’s 2021 interview about Rare Beauty, igniting debates among fans.
• While some defend Hailey, claiming the sentiment is common among entrepreneurs, others argue it’s part of a long-standing history of alleged tension between the two.

Hailey Bieber is facing backlash online after fans accused her of copying a past speech by Selena Gomez. The controversy erupted after Hailey’s acceptance speech at the Daily Front Row’s 9th Annual Fashion Awards, where she received the Beauty Innovator award for her skincare brand, Rhode Skin. Social media quickly buzzed with comparisons, as some pointed out striking similarities between Hailey’s remarks and a 2021 interview Selena gave about her brand, Rare Beauty.

The Controversial Comparison

During her acceptance speech, Hailey said, “When I started Rhode, I didn’t want to start a brand for the sake of starting a brand. I really wanted to create an entire world.” Fans noticed it sounded eerily similar to Selena’s statement from her 2021 Spécial Madame Figaro Arabia interview, where she said, “I didn’t want to launch a makeup line for the sake to launch a brand. What interests me is cultivating beauty from the inside.”

A TikTok video, shared by a fan, showed a side-by-side comparison of the two speeches. The clip went viral, sparking heated debates in the comments. One user claimed, “She copies everything.” Another wrote, “At this point, it’s on purpose because without Selena’s name, she and her husband would be forgotten.” The debate even reignited discussions about Hailey and Justin Bieber’s relationship timeline, further fueling the conversation.

Not everyone agreed with the accusations. Some defended Hailey, arguing that the sentiment in her speech is common among entrepreneurs. “It’s almost as if… they’re both given speeches by their PR team. Not to mention, that’s such a vague statement to make,” one user commented. Another added, “Many celebrities say this about their business—it’s not unique to Selena or Hailey.”

This isn’t the first time Hailey has been accused of mirroring Selena. Fans previously pointed out similarities between their tattoos, social media posts, and even Hailey’s 2023 TikTok video mouthing the words, “God’s timing is always right,” which some thought was aimed at Selena. The video came after Selena was body-shamed online, adding more speculation about ongoing tension between the two women.

A Long-Standing Feud?

The alleged drama between Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber goes way back. Selena dated Justin Bieber for nearly eight years before their final breakup in 2018. Hailey married Justin just months later, sparking long-standing rumors of tension. However, in 2022, the two women attempted to shut down feud rumors with a viral photo of them posing together at an event. Hailey even stated in a Call Her Daddy interview that there’s “all love” between them.

What’s Next?

As of now, Hailey Bieber has not publicly addressed the latest accusations. Gomez, too, has remained silent on the matter. Whether this is just another case of fans reading too much into things or the start of a new chapter in their complicated history, only time will tell.
