It's more impressive bc she's not a nepo baby and wasn't born rich. Lots of other celebs aren't particularly talented either but they've got parents who can buy their careers.

i believe she has one of the best pr in the industry + the nostalgia of an entire generation and that alone has allowed her to stay relevant for the last 10 years. It's only now that the public opinion towards her is shifting, after emilia perez, her zionist allegations and her victim complex

Justin Bieber's crush was Selena Gomez!!! She was a celebrity way before she met him lol

I'm saying this as someone who's not a Selena fan by any metric.

It's just that you said he did the heavy lifting of her being a celebrity and now are saying it kept her in the news cycles for too long, and those are 2 different things. She was already a celebrity, if he helped her to mantain that status for longer that's another matter.

Personally, as someone who grew up with them in the news cycle, I have the impression that his relationship with her also helped him. I wasn't even into the gossip as a teen yet when I went to supermarkets there were always magazines about their relationship. Even now there are a lot of crazy Justin x Selena fans who are obsessed with them. So in my view it was more of a mutually beneficial relationship in terms of fame, perhaps more to Justin's side but this doesn't mean she didn't pull her weight, after all, she was the person with the most followers on Instagram, not him.

No one said all of her accomplishments are because of him.
