The Mean Girl Drama
The current social media tiff between Hailey, Jenner, and Gomez goes back to January when the Back To You singer faced scrutiny after paparazzi shared a photo of her in a bikini. The snapshot was met with body-shaming comments, and it intensified after Hailey and Jenner made a post. The duo was joined by singer Justin Skye in a TikTok clip where they lip-synched to the words, “I’m not saying she deserves it. I’m saying that God’s timing is always right.”
Fans Heavily Criticized Them

Hailey Clarified

Jenner’s Posts Triggered Fans
