Hailey Bieber was hit with bad news this week amid a long-standing controversy with Selena Gomez, which heated up again after their recent comments about each other.
The 28-year-old supermodel received a backlash following her latest interview, in which she seemingly dismissed feud rumors with Gomez, 33, admitting that she “doesn’t feel competitive with people I’m not inspired by” given her skincare brand, which is similar to the singer’s.
Compounding the negative talk, Hailey also suffered a professional setback as her brand, Rhode, which signed an acquisition deal with Elf, failed to meet its expected sales target.
A recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission revealed that sales for Rhode totaled $40.2 million, which was below investor expectations and will impact the brand’s overall profitability.

Another said, “Good job trying to compete with Selena,” and “That’s what happens when you focus mostly on competing with Selena,” another wrote.
While others wrote, “She should probably stop being shady in all her interviews. I also think there are better products out there at her price point,” and “@rhode I get my under eye patches from Rare, thanks for trying,” referring to Gomez’s brand.
