Hailey Bieber breaks silence on ‘annoying’ Selena Gomez comparisons

Hailey Bieber has finally opened up about how she feels about being pitted against many celebrities, including her husband Justin Bieber's ex, Selena Gomez. Fans have put Bieber and Gomez against each other on various occasions. In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, the entrepreneur revealed that it was “annoying” to be compared to other people, adding that she did not “ask” for that to happen.

The Rhode founder opened up on how major career milestones, such as her beauty brand being acquired by e.l.f. Beauty for $1 billion, has not stopped the negative comments about her marriage to Justin Bieber or the comparisons with other celebrities.

Bieber said that she has not felt "competitive” with other beauty brands. She said that there is an ample amount of space for every brand to exist. “I think there is space for everybody. I don't feel competitive with people that I'm not inspired by,” she explained.

According to ELLE, when the reporter tried to ask Hailey Bieber about Gomez and Rare Beauty, her publicist “shut the question down.” However, the model said that she finds all comparisons extremely “annoying” and cannot change people's perceptions about her.

“It's always annoying being pitted against other people. I didn't ask for that. When people want to see you a certain way and they've made up a story about you in their minds, it's not up to you to change that,” she said.

Talking about her relationship with Justin, Hailey Bieber said that they are both trying to find their voice.
