Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez’s latest photos depicting them being sweet all over one another in Hawaii caused a surge of adverse Internet comments (again). The pop idol’s fans don’t take kindly to his girlfriend and express it in unequivocal terms.
The Daily Mail puts the outbreak down to a bunch of pics in which the teen couple can be seen kissing and horsing about in the sea. Fans were quick to respond with a spate of death threats on Facebook and Twitter.
Twitter messages promise Gomez “a long, slow, painful death”, with one fan threatening to kill her in the night under her “smell bed.” On Facebook a group blatantly named “I hate Selena Gomez cuz she is dating my man” is active with close to 2,000 fans freely circulating their hatred, stating that should Justin Bieber ever be heartbroken, Gomez is to have her face smashed in and killed “without kindness.”
For the Scene leader hate mail is nothing new since she has started to date the One Less Lonely Girl singer. Talking with the Bliss magazine she admitted that now and then she shows a very sensitive reaction to sharply negative online comments from Beliebers, saying that it resembles her high school attitude and that it is “very uncomfortable.”
It’s understandable as a stage of the growing-up process, Gomez says, but it’s different when it looks like the whole world turning against you without even trying to get a notion what kind of person you are.
It’s a case of reading hundreds of online comments, the 18-year-old actress continues, and then suddenly one particular comment puts you out. Although she tries to take it in her stride, it is hurtful.
