‘I accept what I am’ – News Block

Just a few weeks after “nepo baby” joined the following cultural conversation New York Magazine In the December 2022 cover story, Hailey tipped her off by walking proudly through the streets in a T-shirt emblazoned with the (very small) words “Nepo Baby.”

In an interview with Bloomberg, Hailey explained it as her “little commentary on the whole speech” of the time. He also emphasized that he wasn’t trying to “make fun of that or say, ‘Yeah, I’m a baby nepo’ and that kind of thing.”

That being said, she absolutely acknowledges that the term is appropriate. “It was more like that, is what everyone says, and I want you to know that this is my way of responding and my way of acknowledging it,” he said, “in such a literal way that it’s like, ‘I’m going to call myself baby. nepo because I am and I accept that I am”.

He was amused that he actually had a “mixed” reaction when he put the shirt on. “Are you going to sit there and call me baby nepo all day, but then I admit it and then I’m not baby enough nepo?” said the daughter of Stephen Baldwin, one of the famous Baldwin brothers. “So it’s like there’s never anything to be gained from the Internet.”

That has certainly proven to be true of both Hailey and Selena Gomez, whose only real association is that they were now or ever in a romantic relationship with Justin Bieber. Hailey is married to him and Selena had a tumultuous relationship with him years ago when they were teenagers.

Ever since Hailey and Justin first got involved, fans have been attacking both women and have even started pitting them against each other. Both have stated on the record multiple times that they deny there is a problem and are even trying to stop the nasty speech.

Now, Hailey realizes there may be nothing stopping him…because he doesn’t even believe it’s really about her and Selena.

“This is not about this confrontation between two women and the division between two women,” she said on the Bloomberg show. “The Circuit with Emily Chang”. “It’s about the vile, disgusting hate that can come from completely fabricated, twisted, and perpetuated narratives. That can be really dangerous.”

She said that she is frustrated with the idea of ​​teaming up behind this person and then going to war against someone else and their team online. “I’m just not into it,” she said. “I want to be able to bring people together.”

She and Chang agreed that pitting two women against each other (“Over a guy? It’s horrible,” Hailey said) is also an “old and frustrating” cliché that serves to diminish women by reducing them to fighting and fawning over men. a man.

“It’s so disappointing that people still behave this way towards a man,” she lamented. “It’s the world we live in, unfortunately.”

And regarding this perceived feud that fans have created between her and Selena, Hailey believes that it “goes back a little bit to being misunderstood when it’s like over and over again I don’t know why I keep having to say, and we keep having to say , that there is no problem and there is no problem”.

Hailey’s latest comments come just a couple of weeks after she criticized her followers for going to war in the comments section of one of Selena’s posts.

“If you are leaving rude or rude comments on my behalf on someone’s posts, just know that I do not want that, nor will I ever support or tolerate hateful, mean or nasty comments,” she posted. instagram stories.

“Doing that is not supporting me,” he continued. “If you’re participating in that, you’re part of a culture I don’t want to be a part of. Please be nice or don’t say anything.”

Of course, this led to a flurry of nasty comments on Hailey’s own posts, but at least both women are trying to stay out of the fray.

They also tried to put down their fans in March, even working together to try to talk them down. This was after Hailey shared with Selena that she started receiving death threats in between all the negativity and normal attacks.

“This is not what I stand for. No one should have to experience hate or bullying,” Selena wrote on her own IG Stories at the time. “I’ve always advocated for kindness and I really want this all to end.”

It’s a shame that Hailey and Selena are promoting peace and love and existing in perfect harmony with each other, while their so-called fans ignore reality time and time again to perpetuate something that seems to have never existed. Maybe Hailey is right and it was never about her and Selena at all.
