Selena Gomez reacts to fans bullying Justin Bieber's wife Hailey & Madison Beer. Justin rubs fans the wrong way with his new streaming strategy for Yummy. Gigi Hadid & Zayn Malik are back together, plus more pop star news!
00:00Justin Bieber's Yummy has left a bad taste in people's earbuds.
00:05Selena Gomez slams fans for attacking Hailey Bieber.
00:08Plus, much more in today's Popstar Roundup.
00:13Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life with your Popstar Roundup.
00:16And before we begin, hit the sub, like, and bell button so we can hit 3 million, baby.
00:21To the news, starting with fans going nuts over some big snubs for the 2020 Oscars.
00:26Fiance was denied a nomination in the Best Original Song category for Spirit in the Lion King live-action film.
00:32Jennifer Lopez, who had an electric performance in Hustlers, was also admitted from Best Supporting Actress.
00:38Granted, this year's Oscars were stacked, but not in these categories.
00:41Also, Adam Sandler was robbed. Justice for Howie.
00:44But alright, to Ariana Grande, because the Grammys announced that she's going to perform at this year's show.
00:49This is a big surprise considering last year she pulled out of the big performance after she was denied singing Seven Rings for the show.
00:56The executive who made the decision tried to recant it, but Ariana made up her mind.
01:00TMZ reports this executive is leaving after this year's show, which might be the reason Ari decided to try working with the Academy once again.
01:08To Eilish, Billie Eilish, because there's a huge rumor going around that producers might have reached out to her to perform the theme song for the new 007 film.
01:16Yahoo reports a reputable blog has claimed that it's set to happen.
01:20It seems a little too early to know right now, but if this turns out to be true, it would make Billie the youngest artist to perform the theme song.
01:27Now, from martinis to bikinis, Billie showed off her trip to Hawaii, and while there were plenty of amazing sights, a lot of fans were mostly focused on her swimwear.
01:35Not going to bother showing it or making a big deal, because that's weird.
01:38Also, I'm pretty sure Billie would wear baggy clothes in water if it wasn't impossible to swim in.
01:42To some big news, Gigi and Zayn are apparently back together.
01:46The two were seen leaving an Italian restaurant in New York City after celebrating his birthday.
01:50E! News reports they got back together right before the holidays after Zayn reached out to Gigi.
01:55Apparently, Gigi always loved him, and Zayn is doing better after focusing on his health and music.
02:00The site also reports that Gigi's family is happy to see the two together again.
02:04But alright, to the real tea this evening with Justin and Selena.
02:07Justin's apparently afraid of Roddy Rich's The Box, preventing Yummy from getting to the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
02:14So much so that he's now working with David Dobrik in exchange for free promo by having his song link in the video's bio.
02:21Which is fine, whatever.
02:22However, the really weird promo strategy that has some fans rolling their eyes is Justin reposting a fan's how-to guide on stream cheating.
02:30Essentially, JB's giving a thumbs up to fans with requests to buy his track multiple times,
02:35and for international fans to download VPN apps so they can boost Yummy in the US charts.
02:40The worst part is he wants you to have the song loop while you're sleeping, and really doesn't give a singular b**k if you listen to his music.
02:47Interestingly enough, Selena is getting the best reviews of her career for her new album, Rare, and is projected to sell over 100,000 copies.
02:55To some Selena Haley drama now with a heavy side of Madison Beer.
02:58Selena celebrated her album release at Craig's in West Hollywood, and after she left,
03:03Haley and Madison were spotted leaving as well, making fans scratch their heads.
03:07Many thought Haley and Madison wanted to overshadow Selena's celebration for some reason.
03:11Madison responded to the speculation, saying she had no idea, and she's friends with both of them.
03:16Selena caught wind of Madison getting bullied online, and even commented on her Instagram,
03:20saying she was disgusted by the comments she was reading, and there is no issue.
03:24But alright guys, let us know your thoughts about this coincidental run-in in the comments below,
