Selena Gomez faced some backlash this week after people on social media accused her of mocking Hailey Bieber’s skincare videos.

On Tuesday, just hours after Hailey posted a series of “Get Ready With Me” videos on TikTok, Selena shared a clip of her own routine on the platform, which led several of her followers to make assumptions that she was throwing shade at Bieber.

“LOL I know who she’s referring to,” one user wrote, while another added, “Wait … is she tryna make fun of you know who.”

Gomez was quick to defend her actions, as the 29-year-old took to Twitter to apologize to those who presumed she was mimicking Hailey.

“This is why I believe in taking care of your mental health. Guys no idea what I did but I really am sorry. Zero bad intention. Deleting soon,” she commented on her video, according to a screenshot shared by a Selena Gomez fan account.

The news arrives just a month after Hailey urged people to stop trolling her on social media.

“I’m minding my business,” Bieber wrote in a TikTok video in April. “I don’t do anything, I don’t say anything. Leave me alone, please.”

She added, “I beg of you. Truly. That’s my only request. Be miserable somewhere else, please.”
