When Justin Bieber celebrated his 29th birthday on March 1, he did so with engraved lighters that read, "I'm so thankful that I didn't end up with what I thought I wanted." Naturally, it took social media all of one hot second to assume that the inscription was a dig at Justin's ex, Selena Gomez. "Their whole world revolves around selena gomez. You are 5 years into marriage and still your ex is the main topic on your birthday? ... imagine if it was selena doing this, they would call her obsessed," one person tweeted. "That's such an oddly specific message to have engraved on something for a party favor at a birthday party," another commented on Facebook, adding it was "giving off '[Hailey] ordered these.'" However, there were those who defended the "Peaches" singer, noting that the cryptic quote could be referring to any number of things. A separate source debunked any claims of bad blood, telling Page Six that the inscription was not about the Gomez-Hailey Bieber rivalry. "It's not what people want it to be [about]," they said.
What is clear is that Gomez has some of the most devoted fans out there. In response to the sus lighters, she hopped back on social media to encourage those same fans to give the Biebers a break. "Please please be kinder and consider others mental health. My heart has been heavy and I only want good for everyone. All my love," she wrote.
