The American model, Hailey Bieber, rarely does interviews, especially not to talk about her relationship with her husband, Justin Bieber. However, Hailey was on a Call Her Daddy podcast lately, and she talked with Alex Cooper about many things.
In the interview, Hailey tried to shed light on her marriage and comment on the drama surrounding Justin's past relationship with Selena Gomez. This is in light of how the world is still obsessed with Justin and Selena's relationship.
To this day, fans scream the word 'Jelena' at Hailey in public. Hardcore Jelena fans think that Hailey stole Justin from Selena. And her interview with Alex on Call Her Daddy, Hailey addressed this and more. However, the audience reaction online was disinterested at best, and hostile at worst. Here's why...
7 Why Hailey Bieber Didn't Say Selena Gomez's Name In Her Call Her Daddy Interview
Someone on Twitter said, “She/Her has a name. If you’re going to refer to someone and speak for them on subjects you couldn’t possibly know about, use Selena Gomez’s name. At least have that much respect. Otherwise, don't bring up this conversation openly again."
Another person said, "The only thing I have to say about Hailey on Call Her Daddy is I wish they would’ve had enough respect to say Selena’s name and not constantly refer to her as “Justin's ex” or “her name”. She has her own identity."
While Hailey clearly did this so that she didn't seem as though she was gossiping about Selena, it clearly fell flat on most listeners.
6 Why Was Hailey Bieber's Call Her Daddy Interview Boring?

Another fan said, "Hailey should’ve never done that interview. She didn’t leave us with anything new. All she did was ignite flames for ppl to bully her even more. Not to mention the interviewer was blatantly biased and purposely didn’t ask anything good."
Another person who tuned in to the interview said, "I hated the interview. I’m sorry, nothing against Hailey, but I just didn’t feel like I learned anything or felt a connection. Like why come on the podcast if you don’t want to do it. Interesting timing too with Selena's documentary, but I swear I’m neutral in regard to everyone."

4 Was The Call Her Daddy Interviewer Unfair To Hailey Biebe?
A Reddit user was fuming over the interview and wrote, "This was the worst Call Her Daddy episode ever….Hailey is an iconic It Girl rn!! Everyone wants to be her... Soooo many questions and things she could have asked, like how she stopped ballet, or how is it being friends with Kendall or getting to know her more on a personal level. Instead, they spoke about Selena for like 50 mins without mentioning her name once…"
Another user thought they wouldn't like Hailey when they watched, but they ended up feeling bad for her. They said, "It’s kinda absurd that Alex would repeatedly badger Hailey with questions, alluding to her being a home wrecker or 'not the right person' for Justin."
3 Was Alex Cooper Inappropriate With Hailey Bieber?
Viewers and listeners commented on how the interviewer was constantly trying to shift the conversation to talk about Hailey and Justin's intimate life. People found it pressing, inappropriate and uncomfortable. Especially because Hailey tried to evade the questions, but Alex Cooper kept shifting the conversation, asking her about her favorite positions.
A fan said, "Alex is mad cringe at this point and hasn't improved her interviewing skills. Despite having one of the largest podcast platforms in media, it felt unprofessional all around, and honestly pretty awkward."
2 Did Hailey Date Justin Bieber While He Was Still With Selena Gomez?
Justin and Gomez were on and off for around eight years. In 2018, they were still getting pictured together, before they officially ended their relationship in the same year. Shortly after in 2018, Justin and Hailey got married. Because of how close the two incidents were, people think that Justin was dating Hailey even before he and Gomez broke up for good.
In the interview, Hailey said, “It’s not my character to mess with someone’s relationship. I would just never do that…”
In a TikTok video, a fan said that they don't think Hailey lived up to the honesty the podcast is known for. She thought that Hailey was lying on many occasions, especially for being too specific when clarifying that she wasn't in a relationship with Justin while he was in a relationship.
1 Was Hailey Bieber's Call Her Daddy Interview Misogynistic?
Someone took to Twitter expressing extreme anger that the show tried to present itself as a pro-women show but the episode was full of misogyny.
That is in light of Gomez's allegations that her relationship with Justin was ab*sive. Bringing Justin's wife to speak about the relationship and where she stands, as if she would be objective, invalidates and disregards Gomez's allegation. It also forces her to relive her traumatizing experience publicly. At least, that is one fan's opinion.
