I haven’t been paying much (if any) attention to Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin. For one, I was convinced that it was nothing more than a fling between friends in that same group where they’re always breaking up and hooking up like they’re all interchangeable. Secondly, I just care less about Bieber now that he’s born-again and attending church regularly at Hillsong, that trendy LA church which I’m convinced is some sort of cult. Anyway, that’s my explanation for why I didn’t see this coming: apparently, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin are engaged now. While they’ve known each other for a while, they’ve only really been going out for a month, maybe two months, tops.
Justin Bieber popped the question to Hailey Baldwin Saturday night … and she said yes!!! Two eyewitnesses who claim to have seen the proposal go down tell us it happened at a resort in the Bahamas. They say everyone was at a restaurant on the property doing salsa dancing when Justin’s security told everyone to put their phones away, because something special was about to happen.
We’re told Justin then proposed in front of everyone. Another source with knowledge of the situation also also confirmed to TMZ that Justin and Hailey did, in fact, get engaged Saturday night.
Justin and Hailey have been almost inseparable since they began dating about a month ago. They’re no strangers to each other … they’ve dated before, and it appears they hooked up again just after Justin and Selena Gomez broke up.
I was like “this is a bizarre way to announce an engagement,” but it seems like they weren’t just going to allow TMZ’s shady reporting do the work. People Magazine and all of the weeklies got confirmation on the proposal, and a “source” told People Mag that “It’s kind of a surprise, but kind of not. Justin has been extremely happy these past few weeks. He has known Hailey for a long time. This might seem sudden, but they know each other very well.” LOL, the perfect reason to propose to someone: they’ve made you happy for a few weeks. Lord almighty.
I kind of think that Bieber saw how much attention Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande were getting and thought “why not me?” Also worth noting: Scooter Braun is manager to both Bieber and Grande. This might be the new thing: sudden engagements for couples together for one month. Anyway, Bieber and Baldwin’s parents all confirmed the news in their own ways, on social media. Do you think they’ll even make it down the aisle?

I’m sure it’ll be the first of many for Mr. Hotel-slippers-outside.
Oh lawd, doesn’t that sartorial choice have douchebag written all over it? Ick.
I see it potentially happening but only if she joins the cult.
Yes, Dee, the cult. If CO$ is on the bottom rung of the ladder, Hillsong is one rung above. A very shady lot indeed. It’s also a huge networking hub. Oh, the stories I could tell about Hillsong…
Hotel slippers and a Ver-sayce suit… these two are made for each other, if only for a few months.
The slippers are my main take away from this. They’ll never marry and if they do it’ll be short and full of drama but they will remain “good friends, with the deepest respect for one another”.
the slippers are bad but her “suit” is TERRIBLE.
just because it’s “Ver-SAYCH” doesn’t mean it ain’t UGGO. I’m always amazed at what a celeb will wear just because of who made it.
yeah, this will last about as long as the Davidson/Grande latte one.
Aside from the slippers 🙄 he’s dressed like any other guy that age. I mean, that’s how they look.
I didn’t notice those at first but now they’re all I can see.
I’m older than 12, just wondering if the Beebs is still popular. lol
I bet you’re right about his copying P&A. I don’t think they’ll get married. If they do, I doubt it would last long.
Don’t think P&A will get married either after he made a joke about the Manchester bombing at her concert. That would be a deal breaker for me. As far as Bieber is concerned – he goes through relationships faster than Elizabeth Taylor went through husbands.
They look like sister and brother.
Eh, why not. Couples who have been together for years before getting married also divorce.
Hillsong is RAKING in the money and I’m sure the celebrity aspect is a big part of that. The whole church sounds deeply silly to but I guess they are getting a lot out of it… Maybe he’s the new Tom Cruise.
Hillsong gives me the creeps, alarm bells go off. I really do think it’s the next Scientology, it’s very cult-like.
I agree. Maybe Scooter thinks this will continue to help ground him, but I believe the church and his close relationship with it’s head is what’s the driving force behind this. From what I’ve seen, it’s money driven and throws up a lot of red flags. Control, control, control, moneybags, control.
They’ll probably elope and then divorce right away is my guess.
Good God, he’s looking terrible these days. That’s the skin, hair and fashion sense of a serious drug user and binge drinker. He was such a sweet boy when he first came on the scene ten years ago. Why any woman would go near guys like that, I will never understand.
They do it for money and attention.
Yes, I agree. I showed my husband his picture that was on the Daily Mail and remarked that he looks like a meth head. Never seen the attraction
He does not look like he’s in a good place. And the way he jumped head first into this church thing, he’s replacing one addiction/obsession with another. Bad combo when someone with weak character gets a ton of fame and money.
Yeah…. he’s not looking so good. His whole vibe reminds me of hardcore stoners I’ve known, down to the bizarre footwear. The fried hair, the comfy weekend at home clothes, the blank yet vaguely happy expression, the shoes that are chosen for no other reason than that they are close at hand and easy to put on.
Honestly I don’t think he had a chance. At the age be became famous, how many of us could say we had a “strong character” that could withstand the insanity of super stardom, ridiculous wealth, screaming fans, and yes-men all around telling us how fantastic and wonderful our every fart was? It makes me think that being famous before you’re a fully grown adult should be illegal.
It’s all the meth.
^^^It looks like someone dragged their master cooker from the trailer based methlab and let him loose on the street.
Actually, he looks pretty normal for being casually dressed. Does not look like a druggie at all, not to me, just because he has tats and is wearing slippers (not the best look), but just looks like LA casual to me.
Let’s call them JustBald 😂
Hahahaha! Let’s!
No. Just no.
They’ve known each other for a few years so it’s not quite a Ariana/Pete situation. Plus I think it’s fake. They pulled this stunt or something similar a few weeks ago. If this is actually true, it won’t last. He’ll run back to Selena.
He’s really not ageing well, the party lifestyle is catching up on him. This will not end well.
Can someone help me ID her outfit? I think it might be Versace but I’m not quite sure…
You stole my comment!!
LOL I think it’s Chanel…
Moschino for Target???
This cracks me up not because Hailey is always the rebound but because anyone who knows anything about all of this knows that if Selena called tomorrow, he’d drop everything and come running to her.
It’s really sad. It’s not like he treated Selena well though, right? Didn’t he cheat on her a lot? I think if I were Selena and super petty, I’d call to congratulate him just to eff with his head. I wonder if Hailey feels victorious or if she knows she’ll always be second to someone else for him.
The TEA is that Selena broke up with him last time around because he’d contacted Hailey to make amends and to tell her that Selena was his choice. Selena didn’t like him contacting Hailey behind her back or something. I think he also cheated on her at the time so I’m going to assume that Selena thought he was cheating on her with Hailey again. Anyways the reason why he proposed to Hailey is because he knows it’s the one person he could propose to that would actually hurt Selena. But everyone knows if Selena took him back, he’d come running right away
But again this is just stuff I’ve heard/read be talked about from the fan bases. I couldn’t tell you if it’s true or not but they don’t call it celebrity gossip for nothing lol
Anyways I hope Selena calls to congratulate him, like you said, to mess with him and then see how Hailey handles it. I can imagine she doesn’t care since she’s finally gotten the attention she’s always wanted. That woman does not love herself tbh But she probably thinks they’re soul mates since he always comes to her when his relationship with Selena hits the rocks. Only this time he’s made it public and well proposed. Let’s see how long it lasts though….
Absolutely. Besides, Hailey congratulated Selena publicly when she went back with Justin, then goes out with him, who does that?
Even if they are in the same circle, and even if it’s Justin Bieber, she should’ve stayed away.
For some reason, I think Hailey is far more confident than Selena and honestly wouldn’t care or worry if she did call. I also don’t think Justin cares about Selena. He cheated on her a million times with every model on the planet and dumped her numerous times. That said, they’re all still quite immature, and this is definitely just a phase.
I believe he is doing all this to get Selena’s attention. They play pap games with each other and I think this is one of them. They all need long term rehab.
Another rich, famous, young couple, full of lust and excitement about wanting to be married to someone way too quickly. Get him some shampoo, a comb, give the ragamuffin a hair cut, clean clothes and a real pair of shoes
My first thought was “maybe she can get him to cut his hair.” Someone needs to pull him aside and let him know how stupid his hair looks lately.
Anyone want to take bets which engagement/ marriage will last the longest–Arianna Grande’s or Justin’s? SMH.
I don’t think either couple will make it to the aisle. Well, I hope not.
He is an entitled jacka$$ but a part of me feels very sorry for him. He was launched into a vulture industry by his own mother way too young, is surrounded by leeches and is vulnerable to anyone who has an idea to prey upon him financially (see that church/cult he is in). After everything that has come out in the era of #Metoo I can only imagine what he was exposed to.
I am obviously in protective Aunt mode today.
Her eyes are so dead
Is she supposed to be one of those nepotism, social media models?
She’s like a 3rd rate Gigi Hadid, I think.
her dad was in bio dome with pauly shore sooooo she’s def a-list model material thanks
@Olive lol
Serious question: why do people here think Hillsong is a cult? I’ve never heard anything bad, so I’m legitimately asking.
It’s a massively wealthy mega church with cult of personality. People end up worshipping the guy on stage more than any religious figure. IIRC, it’s based in Australia and there was some controversy because the father of the church’s founder admitted to sexually abusing a young boy. There was an investigation into the founder for not reporting his dad.
Bieber follows the American pastor though. The American Church focuses a lot on catering to celebrities the way Scientology does. And they of course encourage a 10% tithe, which is obviously a lot of money when they can get it from people like Bieber and Selena Gomez.
Google ‘hillsong shady’, ‘hillsong cult’, ‘hillsong abuse’ and you’ll get plenty of results.
The way they recruit followers is very cultish.
Wow. The cult discussion makes sense. I also hadn’t heard much about the church until a few years ago when my sister in law abruptly announced that she was quitting her job, selling all her assets and moving temporarily to Australia to study music for a church. Of course we were all confused because: 1) she was never into music and 2) she was 50 with a good job. Later I learned that she said God spoke to her in church telling her to do these things. We find out it is through this very church and apparently she was “chosen” by the pastor from the thousands of individuals in the church. This was supposed to be a one year fellowship for music but she’s still there and it’s been almost three years.
I didn’t even think to research the church since no one else seemed concerned. My husband chalked it up to her becoming “saved” and now doing things on a whim.
I started attending a Hillsong church in my City, (Not L.A. or N.Y.) and I didn’t really get the impression it was cultl-ish. However, I did start attending that church before it became Hillsong, though. But, since hearing things about the founder and some of the pastors through this site, I’ve done some research and have since stopped going.
I’m going to start a new rumour: JB’s church said no sex before marriage so he’s desperate to get married. He proposed to Selena and the counselling they were attending was marriage counselling. Except Selena cane to her senses and they suddenly broke up. He gave Hailey the same ring. You’re welcome.
@emily omfg. You are right.
That’s what I was going to say – no sex before marriage in nondenominational churches. I don’t know much about Hillsong but grew up in similar type churches and schools (which did a number on me). A lot of the friends I had that went to the Christian school got married young and after short engagements basically so they could have sex. And most are divorced now
I feel like this is quite likely. I thought the same thing, suddenly religious, quick engagement, what could go wrong?!
AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Please don’t sign a pre-nup!! Please don’t! I’ll laugh forever. Hey Justin, Jesus doesn’t like pre-nups. He told me.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
I thought she was with Sean Mendes and he was back with Selena? Am I that far behind?! This makes me sad, but I hope Selena will finally move on for good..
She was with Shawn….but that was last month, ha ha, they move on quickly & change partners……so of course we can’t take this too seriously. They just want to make waves.
My theory: last winter she was dating Shawn The Hot Canadian Mendes, there were sightings and pictures from fans.
Both posted pictures of them together on Instagram to get the rumour going that they were dating.
They went together to the Met Gala. They looked hot and very happy.
A month later he goes on record saying they are friends.
She then deletes the pictures from the Met Gala and a short while after starts showing up with Bieber.
She was totally in love with Shawn Mendes, but he refused to go public so here we are.
Engaged to Bieber.
If anything she tried to use Shawn to make Justin jealous. She has been chasing Bieber for years and was more than happy to play second fiddle to Selena and be his rebound. She even played second fiddle to Sofia Richie! How she parlayed that into a proposal is what I don’t understand. I’m guessing he knocked her up, and born again Justin is making an honest woman out of her.
Or as someone said above, the ring was bought for Selena and she dumped him, so he’s going with his runner up.
I also co-sign this rumour. She’s pregnant!
How long until Selena Gomez and Shawn Mendes are hanging out?
Shawn and Selena? I cosign this! They would be hot together.
After Bliber and the Weakend she deserves someone hot.
I hope she doesn’t get with Shawn Mendes. It’ll just look like she’s still hung up on Justin and trying to one up him and Hailey. She needs to get with somebody hot and completely unrelated to them. Plus, isn’t Shawn gay anyways?
Shawn’s the freaking cutest. He seems to be a decent teen celebrity type, as well.
One of my coworkers brought her then 10 year old daughter to a concert last year. They were talking to one of the guys at the hotel they were staying at in Toronto and he jokingly asked the daughter “I suppose you’re gaga over him too?” because he had just checked through a family with girls her age who wouldn’t stop swooning over the kid. And my coworkers daughter was just like “Ew, no. He’s too old” and the guy just beamed and was like “I like this kid” to my friend.
I’d cosign a Selena Shawn coupling.
$5 says there will be no wedding. He looks awful for a young guy. I agree with previous poster, he needs a good shampoo/haircut/shave and some clean clothes. Justin, showers really should be taken daily, you can afford it. Pre-nips all around, let the lawyers billable hours begin!
Okay, you cracked me up with the “Pre-nips” (probably a autocorrect) but funny!
I’m thinking these quickie engagements are a trend, at least amongst their social circle.
1st one i heard of was Emily Ratatoski’s and her douche husband (Bear something ?) who got married after like less than two months, on a rebound.
Then Pete Davidson, who’s really good friends with the afore-mentioned douche, proposes to Ariana, again after less than 2 months. (both also on a rebound)
And now Biebs who’s friends with Ariana i think, does the same. (Biebs is prob always on a rebound from someone lol, and as you mentioned Hailey is always the rebound go-to for him).
Maybe it’s like a thing between youngsters (who may be rebounding) they feel they need to prove now. Like if they’re not engaged or married in less that a couple months do they really love each other? Or at least love them more than their previous partners, since they go from long-term relationships to married/engaged within a couple months….i hope not cause that’d be idiotic.
They seem perfect for each other. 😏
Since Scooter manages both Justin and Ariana, how soon before the rumours of a double wedding start?
My husband reminded me that Stephen Baldwin is now a born again Christian. Which it seems like Justin is also now claiming. No side eye, as a Christian myself I hope he’s found answers. So maybe the same religion as his future FIL will help in some way? No idea on Hailey.
She looks so much like a Baldwin! And he desperately needs hair and style HELP.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with his hair, face or clothes. He just looks like a normal person leaving a hotel and walking to a place near by (to his car?).
Now Hailey looks a bit emotionless, but maybe that’s the image she tries to sell.
I’m sure the engagement is just for publicity, he’ll end up marrying and having kids with Selena.
Love the respective parents’ Twitter confirmations, esp Stephen Baldwin. He deleted the tweet, but he did praise God to the highest. And quoted scripture. Because of course. He’s probably thrilled because he’s kinda-sorta-but-not-really relevant now via his kid.
LOL @ Bieber’s security telling ppl in a public place to put their phones away. Not to sound like someone who’s only brave behind a screen, but F that. Who are you to order me to put my phone away bec Bieber has ‘something special’ (& *private*) planned? You want privacy, go somewhere, IDK, *private.*
Lordy, I strongly dislike entitled people.
The guy could buy a private island and he’s making a bunch of people at some restaurant put their phones away? He rented out the Staples Center so he and Selena could watch Titanic, but he proposes to this girl in front of a bunch of random strangers?
He could have flown in everyone important to them and surprised her, or he could have taken her somewhere super exclusive and private to propose. This was basic as hell.
I think he considers himself a romantic guy, or at least he did when he was with Selena. This was either last minute, just for publicity, or he just didn’t care to put in any effort.
They dated before….broke up…he got back with Selena, they broke up, and now he went back to Hailey. I had a feeling he was going to propose to her. He always said he wanted to get married young and have kids young. I think they will make it down the aisle. I do still believe that Justin and Selena will get back together…after they both marry other people and get divorced (sorry that sounds horrible).
He left her for Sofia Richie too lol he unfollowed her on Instagram and started posting a bunch of photos of him with Sofia.
Before he ever officially got with Hailey she was basically just his FWB, waiting in the wings for him any time he wanted. Maybe he decided he was ready to get married and she was the one there, still waiting.
I can’t see this ending any other way than him walking all over her. I can’t imagine their dynamics changing, even if he has decided to marry her.
The way you told it, it sounds a lot like Waity Kaity and William back in their university days. She just waited him out. hmmm…
This almost feels like a harem.
Hillsong puts a huge emphasis on marriage and how important it is. This was inevitable.
I think that’s what probably worked in her favor. She is religious and so is her family. He probably thought that made her good wife material or something.
Her suit is tacky AF. I loathe outfits that have the brand name painted all over it and him…wow he looks like a douche. Like it’s the only look he knows or it’s natural douche face. That should be a thing lol. Women get resting bitch face, so men such as Justin get natural douche face. And hotel slippers? Really? Hi I’m a millionaire but I want to look cheap and dirty on purpose. I’ll say it again, natural douche face. A face you want to punch just because it’s there.
her face says it all XD
I noticed that even before I saw the tacky bedroom shoes. She looks either sad or annoyed in every single picture. And of course Mr Sensitive hasn’t noticed because why would he? It’s all about him, right? Gaaa I can’t stand him.
I expect some Selena drama!
He has treated hailey like a side chick for years. Is this a genuine change of heart for him? It’s clear she is in love with him and has been accepting crumbs from him for a long time so this is probably a happy time for her.
I’m just wondering why he choose to do this so suddenly after breaking up with Selena for the 4th time. I believe he may be over Selena -he cheated on her a lot too and he started talking to Hailey behind Selena’s back again under the guise of “apologizing” Maybe him and Hailey never stopped sleeping together and Selena saw he wouldn’t stop talking to Hailey and dumped him for it. If a guy has girls waiting in the wings like Hailey that he stays in constant contact with, he doesn’t love you and isn’t worth fighting for so She was smart to do that and exit that love triangle, Selena just sounds over the drama. Maybe now that Selena has given up on Beiber, he can just be with Hailey now. I’d have mixed feelings if I was Hailey – she is the runner up here but she was willing to wait it out and be more complacent that Selena. She’s been after him for years and she won in the end – though I’m not sure a serial cheater is any prize at all. I think him and Selena was a toxic pair regardless.
I feel sad for Hailey. She was pining away for years while he chased other girls, not just Selena. She has always been his backup.
There was that one interview he did a while back where the writer said they went back to his hotel room, and Hailey was there waiting for him. She was sitting on the bed doing nothing, not watching tv, not on her phone, not reading. She was just sitting there waiting for him. They left to continue the interview elsewhere, and he refused to call her his girlfriend. He added some weak statement later so he wouldn’t look so bad, but it made her look so pathetic.
I read that interview too, except I didn’t think it made her look bad. Nobody NEEDS to be on their phone or watching tv all the time. It’s a bit refreshing not to be. Is it crazy to think she may have been meditating, thinking, just enjoying some quiet time to herself? To be honest, she never struck me as pining after Beiber. If anything, her body language always looks “over it” or disinterested, while he is all over her. Just an observation!
A lot of it was how he reacted when asked if he was dating Hailey. The writer said Justin emphatically shook his head no and seemed surprised that she would think he was dating the girl sitting in his hotel room waiting for him. Then he rambled on about not wanting to resent someone for tying him down. This was after he posted that picture of him and Hailey making out on Instagram. He STILL wouldn’t call her his girlfriend. He always seemed so proud to be with Selena.
I just don’t buy that he has suddenly fallen head over heels for the girl who has always been his backup.
But it’s possible he has just grown up a lot, and it was one of those “the right person was standing next to you all along” kind of things. Those relationships are often times a lot more stable than the passionate crazy in love ones. For her sake, I hope that’s the case.
I read that article! That was a great piece and seemed very telling on how ungrounded Bieber had become. Ahhhhhh, so that model-on-the-bed was this Hailey??? It DID seems so strange that a young model would placidly wait around on a bed without any devices or books and just around for an immature (unstable?) Bieber. Even when he disavowing their relationship in print.
Now their yo-yo relationship and the lame proposal makes sense. Especially since he’s found culty Hillsong – which is worrying. Yikes, my best hope that this is a publicity stunt!
Hailey strikes me as desperate, low self esteem and not particularly smart. She probably feels really lucky that the world’s most renowned douche proposed to her. Poor, stupid girl.
They’ve been secretly dating for more than a month. They were careful not to be photographed more than peripherally together, but they’ve dated since at least mid-April and maybe longer than that. The point still stands that it’s breakneck speed especially for very young people, but saying we are seeing what they want us to see, not their real story.
I don’t dislike him. He’s a kid. We’ve all done stupid things during our late teen years, early twenties, imagine how it would have been if we were multi millionaires. If they are happy, I am happy for them. Do I think it will last, not really, but you really never know. I see no reason to judge her looks. That’s not cool.
He must’ve read that blind about Selena getting secretly engaged
They always seemed to be hanging around each other so I thought he was doing her a favour as a friend to help keep her name out there. Since she has tired really hard to be a Kendall/Hadid to no avail. Basically Bieber is her young sugar Daddy.
This guy bounces between this girl and Selena every year and now he thinks he’s ready for marriage? He’s probably dumb enough not to get a prenup either.
Selena is weeping into her Wheaties right now, certainly. She’s been obsessing over him for years. Hailey seems much more laid back. The on and off dating thing and “pretending it’s not a relationship” is unfortunately kind of the standard nowadays. I still don’t think it’ll last, but he probably does have a deeper connection with Hailey than anyone else he’s dated, at least.
Well, this should go well!
Tacky-ass halfwits who parade around in suits stripped ad nauseam with expensive brand names will be the first to find themselves on the ends of the pitchforks when the masses rise against the indifferently brazen and brazenly indifferent 1%. Think, honey.
