Selena Gomez Breaks Her Silence On The Accusations Of Playing The Victim In The Drama With Justin Bieber And Hailey

Over the years, Selena Gomez has been criticized for building her artistic career on public sympathy, making herself the victim in everything.

Selena Gomez is considered the “queen of tricks” in Hollywood, with her controversial behavior and statements. Netizens once mocked that Selena Gomez built her artistic career on sympathy, making people feel bad about what the singer went through and especially always showing herself as a victim. After many years of being mocked and criticized by the audience, Selena Gomez recently spoke up to affirm that she did not try to play the victim as many people said.

“I feel like a lot of people are mistaking me sharing my struggles with being vulnerable and being a victim. I don’t like that perception and that way of thinking. I’m not a victim. I’m just being honest with myself, saying what’s on my mind, and then being labeled as that , ” Selena Gomez shared at the Nexus Summit event.

Selena Gomez affirms that she is not trying to play the victim as many people sarcastically say.

The incident that caused Selena Gomez to be ridiculed by the public for trying to act hurt and playing the victim was mainly related to Justin Bieber . Since breaking up with the singer born in 1994, Selena Gomez has often expressed her painful feelings about love affairs. At its peak in 2020, Selena declared that she considered herself a victim in love, having been emotionally abused while dating Justin Bieber. The singer said she had to undergo psychotherapy after going through a problematic relationship with her ex-boyfriend.

” The victim mentality is very dangerous. I don’t mean to offend anyone, but I feel like I was a victim of emotional abuse. I had to grow up to make choices. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life talking about that relationship. I was very strong to get out of a negative relationship as gracefully as possible,” Selena Gomez shared about her breakup with Justin Bieber .

Despite declaring that she “didn’t want to spend the rest of her life talking about her relationship with Justin Bieber,” Selena Gomez still went to the media to talk about it. In 2022, Selena Gomez frankly shared that her breakup with Justin Bieber was “the best thing that ever happened.” Or in an interview with Fast Company in 2023, the singer said that her breakup with Justin Bieber made her quit using social media.

After many years of separation and both having their own happiness, Selena Gomez still goes to the media to talk about her old love story with Justin Bieber.

In addition, Selena Gomez has closed and reopened her Instagram account many times. All the reasons given were “fear of reading toxic comments”, which made her depression worse. But then , a short time later, the singer returned to this platform. The audience even discovered that Selena Gomez lied. She once claimed that she did not have the Instagram app on her phone but still used her account with more than 428 million followers to respond to bad rumors online. Netizens expressed their dismay because this was not the first time they saw Gomez “say one thing, do another”.

Selena Gomez announced that she would stop using social media because she was afraid of reading toxic comments, but after only closing her account for a few days, she is back on Instagram.

Not only is Gomez inconsistent in her statements, she is also hated by the public for being ungrateful to Francia Raisa – who once risked her life to donate a kidney to her. Although Francia Raisa saved her life, Selena Gomez asserted in the media that “Taylor Swift is her only close friend in the entertainment industry” . After this statement, Selena Gomez was cut off from Raisa, facing a wave of fierce criticism. The Lose You to Love Me singer had to apologize and try to reconcile with Francia Raisa for many years .
