Why Hailey Bieber Opened Up About Selena Gomez During the 'Call Her Daddy' Podcast
Host Alex Cooper spills the tea.
In September, Hailey Bieber shocked fans when she opened up about Selena Gomez during an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. Now, host Alex Cooper has revealed why Bieber took to the podcast to tell her truth.
In case you need a refresher, the model addressed her relationship with Gomez, confirming there is no bad blood between the two, which surprised many who believed there was tension because they’ve both dated Justin Bieber, whom Hailey got married to in 2018.
Cooper revealed she reached out to Hailey and asked her to come on to the podcast, which she was all for. “Hailey obviously had in mind what she wanted to talk about and I hoped that I facilitated the conversation in a way that people felt like we got to see a human part of Hailey that can get misconstrued on the internet,” Cooper told E! News.
Additionally, Cooper elaborated on why Hailey chose her platform to open up.
“We did not know each other. I’m not, like, texting Hailey,” she said. “It was a moment where I think she said to me, ‘I know I met you once, but I trust you and I really respect your platform and how you handle interviews respectfully.’ When anyone is opening up, I think they want to be in a space where they know it’s going to be held with respect and care, and not feel pushed to go in certain places that they may not want to go. So I will always be grateful to Hailey for trusting me with that.”
