The fan debate over Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber has raged for years, ever since the latter married Justin Biber in 2018.
Many believe Sel and Hailey had a cold war earlier this year after the model made a TikTok video in which she allegedly shamed her husband’s ex-lover.
As mentioned above, these discussions have been going on for a long time; The two divas also have a “G” tattoo behind their ears. Let’s understand why they got the tattoo and what meaning it has in their lives.
Sel and JB dated on and off from 2010 to 2018. The two were known as the “It” couple in the music industry, due to their large following. During that period, JB also briefly dated Hailey before the two got serious in 2018 and ended up getting married in an intimate ceremony.
The alleged long-running drama between Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez greatly involves their fans, who do not miss the opportunity to criticize each other. A topic of discussion is also her identical G tattoos in cursive behind her left ear. While many say that Hailey has copied the Only Murders In The Building star, it is not true.
According to Buzz Feed, the story dates back to 2015, when, in June, Hailey Bieber revealed via Instagram that she got a cursive G tattoo. She revealed that the tattoo was a tribute to Zoe Church pastor Chad Veach’s daughter Georgia, who was born with a rare brain malformation in 2012. This tattoo trend was introduced by now-disgraced former Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz, in 2013. The tattoo was a reminder to pray for the girl. Since Justin Bieber has also worshiped the Zoe Church, he also got a G tattoo.
Selena Gomez also got a similar tattoo that same year and was first seen flaunting it in June. While there were many rumors that the singer also followed the church, Sel made it clear that she had nothing to do with the Veach. In October, the actress told Refinery 29 that the cursive G tattoo was an ode to her then-2-year-old sister Gracie. Selena is very close to her little sister and is usually seen hanging out with her in public.
Well, it looks like Hailey didn’t copy Selena Gomez and her fans can stop fighting over the tattoo. But it’s still unclear why she got it in the same place.
