Hailey’s unexpected gesture sparks surprise, as Selena Gomez’s film sweeps the Golden Globes.
In a move that shocked fans, Hailey Bieber recently appeared to extend an olive branch to Selena Gomez, the ex-girlfriend of her husband, Justin Bieber. The model, who has been linked to Gomez in years of rumoured tension, made a surprising gesture of support as Gomez’s film Emilia Perez claimed multiple Golden Globe awards on January 5.
Hailey, who recently gave birth to a son with Justin Bieber, liked an Instagram post by Anthony Vaccarello, the creative director of Saint Laurent, who praised the film’s accomplishments. Vaccarello congratulated the team behind Emilia Perez for their Golden Globe triumph, including Best Motion Picture, Best Female Supporting Actor for Zoe Saldaña, Original Song, and Best Foreign-Language Film.
The film, a Spanish-language French musical, garnered widespread acclaim, particularly for its bold storyline. It tells the tale of a Mexican cartel boss, Juan “Manitas” Del Monte, who embarks on a journey to undergo gender-affirming surgery and reinvent himself as Emilia Pérez.
While Hailey’s life was seen by many as a public sign of moving past old tensions, the connection between the two women has long been a subject of public scrutiny. Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber’s on-again, off-again relationship is well-documented, and Hailey’s marriage to the pop star added fuel to the ongoing speculation about potential rivalries.
But it seems Hailey is ready to put that all behind her, choosing to recognise Selena’s career achievements in a moment of celebration. The surprising move has caught the attention of fans who have long watched the complicated dynamic between the two women.
Despite the past rumours and media attention, Hailey’s recent gesture is seen by many as a sign of maturity and grace, while Selena continues to rise in her career, both as an actress and a producer. The Golden Globe wins solidify Gomez’s position in Hollywood, and Hailey’s show of support only adds to the intrigue surrounding their relationship.
With the year just beginning, it’s clear that Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez are both making their mark in the entertainment world — albeit in different ways.
