Beyonce's version of 'Jolene' features lyrics where a woman warns another woman, Jolene, to stay away from her man, while Dolly Parton's original tells the story of a woman concerned about her husband's fidelity.
Fans quickly drew parallels between the song's themes and the perceived rivalry between Hailey and Selena, particularly concerning Selena's past relationship with Justin Bieber, Hailey's husband.
The ongoing debate surrounding Hailey Bieber's recent Instagram post has sparked a flurry of reactions from fans, with some criticizing her and others coming to her defense.
One Selena Gomez fan expressed their opinion, stating, “Hailey Bieber is living proof that you can have the whole man and still be miserable and obsessed with the ex," while the other user wrote, "Her whole existence is about selena gomez." [sic]

Hailey Bieber addresses marriage rumors
Reports surfaced recently, suggesting that Hailey Bieber may be seeking a trial separation from her husband, Justin Bieber.
A source close to the couple revealed to In Touch that Hailey, the founder of Rhode, is grappling with personal struggles and is considering taking some time apart from Justin to sort things out.
“Hailey’s struggling,” the insider said. “She just needs time to sort things out on her own.”
In an attempt to address the persistent rumors circulating about her marriage, Hailey took to social media earlier this month.
On March 5, Hailey addressed several blind items circulating about the status of her marriage. “Just FYI the stories and constant ‘blind items’ I see on TikTok are 100 (percent) of the time wrong. Made out of thin air … come from the land of delusion,” she wrote in her Instagram Stories.
“So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories, but just know they’re always false, xx sorry to spoil it.”
The status of Hailey and Justin's marriage has been under intense scrutiny, particularly after her father, Stephen Baldwin, shared a post on Instagram that brought their relationship into the spotlight.
Baldwin reposted an Instagram Reel from religious figure Victor Marx, calling for prayers for the couple.
In the post, Marx urged Christians to pray for Justin and Hailey, highlighting the challenges they may be facing. "Eileen and Hailey's mom pray often together for J&H and our children as well," Marx added in the caption.
