Breaking the relationship with close friend Selena Gomez, and his nemesis Kanye West publicly teasing him via social networks… these are the reasons why Taylor Swift became an enemy of Justin Bieber.
The most “powerful” pair of sisters in Hollywood
Before their separation, Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber were considered one of the closest sisters in the Hollywood entertainment industry.
In 2009, when male singer Baby was just 15 years old and just starting to step into his mainstream career, female singer Blank Space invited him to perform as the opening act for two shows on the “Fearless World Tour” tour in the UK.
At that time, the two sisters were quite close, Justin always tried his best during those performances, and often gave compliments to Taylor.
In 2010, when Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez started dating and were close friends of both, Taylor Swift seemed very supportive of this relationship. In 2011, at the Teen Choice Awards, close sisters Justin and Taylor responded enthusiastically to the performance of the song Love you like a love song by singer Selena Gomez.
At the 2011 American Music Awards event, Taylor was happy to have fun with the hottest couple in the world at that time.
In 2012, male singer Baby even chose Taylor as the character he would cheat on MTV’s show Punk’d instead of his girlfriend Selena Gomez. After realizing she was tricked, Taylor hugged Justin because she was so surprised, but she also seemed happy with the joke.
After a period of close relationship between sisters, around the beginning of 2013, the love story between the Jelena couple continued to have problems, causing the relationship between Taylor and Justin to not be as close as before. Selena Gomez is considered the snake queen’s best friend, so it is not difficult to understand when Taylor expressed dissatisfaction with Justin’s flirtation
However, the fact that Selena never woke up and continuously broke up and got together with Justin also made Taylor uncomfortable. Even backstage at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, Taylor expressed her attitude when she saw the Jelena couple kissing. At Selena’s 21st birthday, Taylor didn’t even attend because Justin was also present.
On the contrary, Justin Bieber was also not satisfied with Taylor constantly blocking his relationship with Selena, and said that the king snake was the cause of Jelena’s breakup.
A close friend of Justin Bieber told US that the Canadian singer always complained about Taylor Swift being nosy about his love life. When she learned that Selena Gomez broke up with Justin, Taylor always tried to find ways to introduce new boyfriends to Selena. This is also one of the things that makes Justin bitter
The peak of the animosity was in 2016, when Justin Bieber publicly wrote a caption as if he was “provoking” Taylor Swift while he was talking to Kanye West, the eternal enemy of the snake queen.
Accordingly, Justin Bieber just made fans stir when he posted a photo of him chatting via FaceTime with Scooter Braun, Martin Garrix and especially Kanye West. Not only that, in the photo caption, Justin also publicly teased Taylor by asking her: “Taylor Swift, how are you?”.
On July 1, the war of words between Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift officially broke out, right after the queen snake posted a letter denouncing the “slave” contract she signed with Big Machine Records. as well as Scooter Braun’s plot to usurp female singer Blank Space’s years of musical efforts.
In response to Taylor Swift, male singer Baby shared an article criticizing Taylor Swift’s actions. The story did not stop there, when a series of Hollywood stars began to participate in the “war of words”. Married couple Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were one of the first artists to participate in the war of words. Next is Justin Bieber’s wife Hailey Baldwin.
Taylor Swift’s faction is no less competitive. Supermodel Cara Delevigne’s close friend frankly shared her comments with Hailey Baldwin.
Besides supermodel Cara Delevigne, many stars also expressed their support for Taylor Swift; Ariana Grande, Katy Perry, Alessia Cara. Miley Cyrus, Camila Cabello, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj… unfollowed Scooter Braun on Instagram. In addition, the hashtag #WeStandWithTaylor is number one in the US and number two on the top trending worldwide.
It didn’t stop there, Taylor Swift continued to fight when the queen snake liked fan posts criticizing the bad actions of Justin Bieber and Scooter Braun. Among them, there are a number of posts talking about singer Baby having an affair behind Selena Gomez’s back.
It is said that relationships in Hollywood change direction in the blink of an eye. People turn from enemies to friends and from friends to enemies so quickly that no one can understand. Perhaps Justin and Taylor’s relationship is similar.
Who knows, maybe one day, this old couple will “play around” on the street together like never before with heated arguments.
