Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez might not be saying anything, but their Instagram fingers are doing all the talking, apparently. On April 6, 2025, Bieber reportedly, briefly liked a photo of Gomez cozied up with Benny Blanco. A few hours later, the like mysteriously vanished.
But it didn’t stop there.
Selena apparently returned the energy by liking one of Bieber’s posts, only to unlike it not long after. Just like that, social media exploded. Fans on both sides caught wind of the interactions and immediately turned them into a full-blown event, speculating everything from a quiet rekindling to subtle shade.
No official statements have been made by Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, or their teams. But that hasn’t stopped the internet from doing what it does best: reading between the (digital) lines.
Twitter and TikTok lit up with reaction videos, fan theories, and montages of the couple’s past moments.
Some fans saw it as a nostalgic nod, with comments like, “Their likes are more powerful than a press release,” while others chalked it up to accidental scrolling or PR mischief. Either way, the mutual activity was enough to reopen a floodgate of online obsession around one of pop culture’s most-watched ex-couples.
And of course, both celebs have moved on, publicly, at least. Bieber’s still with Hailey, and Gomez has been engaged to Blanco for a while now. But their digital crossovers never fail to catch fire.
Some users on X are now claiming that the likes might have been faked entirely, possibly through edited screenshots or manipulated Instagram data. Several fans pointed out that there was no timestamped proof or verified tracking showing either Justin Bieber or Selena Gomez actually hit the like button. Without official statements or confirmation from either camp, it’s still unclear whether the interactions ever happened – or if this is just another round of fan-driven fiction.
In the world of celebrity exes, likes aren’t just likes. They’re bait. They’re breadcrumbs. They’re chaos. And on April 6, two unassuming, reported, taps gave the internet everything it needed to lose its collective mind, again.
