Selena Gomez's heart wants the hate against Hailey Bieber to stop.

The Lose You to Love Me singer shared a message on her Instagram Story March 24 after learning about the immense criticism the model has been receiving.

"Hailey Bieber reached out to me and let me know that she has been receiving death threats and such hateful negativity," Selena, who has also followed Hailey on Instagram, wrote. "This isn't what I stand for. No one should have to experience hate or bullying."

"I've always advocated for kindness," she noted, "and really want this all to stop."

Selena's message comes one month after she took to social media to address claims that Hailey and pal Kylie Jenner threw shade at her, calling the speculation "unnecessary" in a Feb. 22 TikTok comment. Since that time, Hailey—who is married to Selena's ex Justin Bieber—has received a flood of negative comments online, which is why Selena is speaking up in her defense.

The Grammy nominee and the Rhode Skin founder previously put the feud rumors to rest in late 2022 when they posed for a photo together at the Academy Museum Gala.
