SZA Sparks Rumors of Hailey Bieber Feud After Liking Controversial Post

An alleged recent social media interaction has supposedly ignited speculation about a possible rift between SZA and Hailey Bieber.

SZA and Justin Bieber Performance

The controversy began after SZA’s sultry onstage duet with Justin Bieber during her Los Angeles concert on May 23, 2025. Following the performance, SZA allegedly liked a post claiming that Justin’s “soulmate might be a Black woman,” a comment that some fans interpreted as a subtle dig at Hailey Bieber.

The post quickly gained traction on social media, with many users discussing the implications of SZA’s apparent endorsement. However, it’s important to note that SZA has not publicly addressed the incident, and the allegations remain unconfirmed. Hailey Bieber, who was present at the concert and shared her support for both artists, has not commented on the matter.

This video on Reddit shows the duo on stage in a clip during the performance. Many people took to the comment section of the above TikTok video to express their concerns over Justin’s alleged performance at this time, claiming he looked like he was on substances or seemed unwell. There is no evidence to support claims that Justin is not well or on substances, this is all a rumor. Phrases like the “fenty fold” were also trending following this performance.

What is Fenty Fold

The term “Fenty Fold” refers to a TikTok trend that emerged in early 2024, characterized by individuals mimicking the physical effects of opioid use (here), particularly fentanyl. Participants would reportedly bend forward at the waist, appearing as if they were nodding off, and remain in that position for extended periods.

Again, there is no evidence to support claims that Justin was on any substances during this performance; it is all alleged with no facts to back it up.

The rumor that Justin was allegedly “doing the Fenty Fold” is damaging because it trivializes the opioid crisis, spreads harmful speculation about his health and sobriety, and reinforces stigma around addiction. Associating a celebrity with fentanyl use without evidence is irresponsible and can cause real harm both to the individual and broader public understanding of substance abuse.

This incident adds to the ongoing public scrutiny surrounding Justin and Hailey Bieber’s relationship. Hailey has previously expressed frustration over persistent rumors about their marriage, despite their growing family and years together. The recent performance and subsequent online reactions have only fueled further speculation.

As of now, there is no official statement from SZA or Hailey Bieber regarding the alleged social media interaction. Fans continue to discuss the incident online, but without confirmation from the individuals involved, the situation remains speculative.
