Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey Baldwin opted to skip the red carpet at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards to avoid any potential confrontation with Selena Gomez. The couple’s decision is believed to be related to ongoing tensions between Gomez and Bieber. The source of the feud stems from the end of the pair’s highly-publicized relationship and subsequent engagement.
Bieber and Baldwin’s absence from the red carpet was notable, as it marked the first time the couple attended a major event since their reported secret wedding in September 2018.
While they did not walk the red carpet, Bieber still took the stage to perform his latest single.
Fans speculated that Bieber and Gomez’s absence from the red carpet was a strategic move to avoid any uncomfortable interactions or public displays of tension. The decision also seems to indicate that the feud between the former couple is still ongoing.
The tension between Bieber and Gomez has been a recurring topic in the media since their split.
Despite Gomez’s efforts to move on, Bieber’s relationship with Baldwin, and subsequent marriage, appears to have only fueled the feud.
While Bieber and Gomez were both successful and influential figures in the music industry, their past relationship continues to overshadow their individual achievements. Only time will tell if the former couple will be able to put their differences aside and move forward peacefully.
