Selena Gomez jumped to the defence of "best friend" Taylor Swift after old footage came to light of her being mocked by Hailey Bieber.

The throwback clip did the rounds on social media which showed Hailey and Method Man, who used to co-host popular rap battle show Drop The Mic, take aim at Taylor for her choice of songs.

In the short video, Method Man teased a "rap battle full of the meanest lyrics about a celebrity since Taylor Swift's last album", with Hailey responding by miming that she was going to be sick.

The TikTok account which shared the clip hit out at the model claiming that "this is real Hailey 'Bieber'" before calling her a "bully" and a "mean girl".

Selena and Taylor have been close friends since 2008 when they were dating different Jonas brothers.

After splitting with Nick Jonas in 2009, Selena had an on-off relationship with Justin Bieber between 2010 and 2018.

The Canadian singer started dating Hailey shortly after his break-up with the Lose You To Love Me songstress and have been married for almost five years.

Since the start of Justin and Hailey relationship, the two women have been pitted against each other.

"It’s not even a thing," said the actress in an interview for OK! Magazine after the pair posted a cute photo together to show there was no issue.

The Disney alum recently overtook Kylie Jenner as the most followed person on Instagram, racking up 382 million followers compared to the Kardashians star's 380 million.

This comes after the TV personality was accused of "mocking" Selena on Wednesday.

The odd interaction came after the Only Murders In The Building star posted a TikTok story, joking she had "accidentally laminated [her] brows too much".

However, Selena's joke was quickly overshadowed by Kylie 's Instagram story which showed a screenshot of her and Hailey on FaceTime. Both women had put their eyebrows to the camera for a close-up, which fans said was "mocking" Selena's video.

Multiple TikToks popped up analysing the interaction which sparked a response from Kylie on one of the videos, saying: "This is reaching. No shade towards Selena ever and I didn’t see her eyebrow posts. You guys are making something out of nothing. This is silly."

Selena agreed and added: "It's all unnecessary. I'm a fan of Kylie's."

Back in 2019, Selena was the most followed woman but was overtaken by singer Ariana Grande, who then lost out to Kylie. Fans are happy that the crown has been returned to the Calm Down singer, saying: " Selena Gomez is once again the most followed woman on Instagram. Queen is back!"
