Recently, the mother of two stepped out of her home to celebrate the 40th birthday of actress twins, Malika and Khadijah Haqq in Los Angeles.

Selena-Kylie-Hailey controversy

While 30-year-old Selena Gomez and 26-year-old Hailey Bieber have often made headlines for their alleged ‘feud’, the ‘Kylie Cosmetics’ founder entered the bandwagon recently. It all started when Selena posted a closeup of her eyebrows on TikTok which she captioned, “I accidentally laminated my eyebrows too much”. All hell broke loose as Kylie then entered the controversy by sharing a picture of herself with the caption, “this was an accident ?????”

Many Selena fans took this as a jab at the Disney star. The issue became worse when kylie shared a screenshot of her Facetime chat with her best friend Hailey where both women highlighted their carefully plucked eyebrows. This received flak from the netizens as they thought it was intentional. The incident also allegedly lost Kylie close to 1 million followers on Instagram and Hailey limiting comments on the same.

‘Wow- THAT was an accident?!’

“Why her eyes always look so empty,” commented one user. “Why does she keep posting this Xanax looking face expressions? Needs new material,” says the second. “I have a feeling this kind of thing is going to go out of style and we're going to see a new era of what people look to as Beauty and style,” mused a user. 

Kylie’s social media was full of fans chanting Selena’s name with one fan commenting, “SELENAAAAA”. “#selenagomez she the queen,” chimed in a Selena fan. “Gotta keep an eye out for selener,” wrote another. 

"“This was an accident?”," commented one fan referring to Kylie’s own alleged jab against the pop star. 

One user scathingly criticized, “To remain relevant you guys always revert back to your bodies . So sad !! Instead of brains or kindness. It’s what apparently you guys know how to do”. “I feel like she’s trying her best to look like yungsweetro 😂😂 idk could be wrong though lmao,” wrote another. “She never smiles….why?” asked a netizen.
