Recently, veteran Denver Broncos player Shannon Sharpe found himself in the midst of paparazzi attention outside the trendy Italian eatery Giorgio Baldi.
However, the interview was abruptly interrupted when pop sensation Selena Gomez stole the spotlight.
Apparently, Sharpe was approached by paps while he was waiting outside the restaurant’s valet station.
Just as Sharpe began to delve into a discussion about Team USA’s performance at the FIBA World Cup, Selena Gomez made a grand entrance, causing a frenzy of flashing cameras.
“Hold on one second, Shannon,” the cameraman called out as he hurriedly shifted his focus towards Gomez.
Once Gomez left the spot, the cameraman redirected his attention to Sharpe and said, “Apologize about that, Shannon.”
“Nah, bro, you’re good. That’s your job,” Sharpe replied diplomatically.
As the video of the encounter went viral, fans couldn’t help but laugh at the unexpected snub.
However, the incident also sparked a conversation online, with one fan making a comparison to Hailey Bieber, who is married to Selena’s ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber.
“They’d never do this for Hailey Bieber,” the user wrote in a quote-tweet of the viral video, which quickly garnered numerous likes.

Yet another user added their perspective, writing, “Stop comparing her to Selena just because they had a relationship with the same guy?! One is a housewife, and the other is Selena Gomez. So, let’s end this constant comparison. It’s really insulting to Selena. No hate for Hailey, but she’s incomparable to Sel.”

Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber’s feud ignited back in January.
It all started when Hailey Bieber posted a TikTok video, playfully lip-syncing to the trending soundbite, “And I’m not saying she deserved it, but God’s timing is always right.”
This seemingly innocuous TikTok post led fans to speculate that Hailey might be subtly throwing shade at Selena Gomez, who had been dealing with hurtful comments about her body during that period.
Despite the perceived jab, Selena chose to respond with a dignified attitude, stating, “It’s OK! I don’t let these things get me down! Be nice to everyone! X.”
In an effort to quell the controversy, Hailey Bieber took to social media, writing, “I usually don’t comment on this kind of thing, but we were simply having a girls’ night and decided to have some fun with a random TikTok sound. It’s not directed at anyone.”
Next, Selena Gomez, known for her transparency about her body changes, especially since her diagnosis of lupus, candidly expressed during a TikTok Live session.
She shared, “I tend to retain a lot of water weight, which is perfectly normal, and then when I’m not dealing with it, I tend to lose weight.”
She concluded her statement, by declaring, “I’m not a model, and I never aspire to be one. Thank you for supporting me and understanding my journey, and if not… kindly move along. Because, honestly, I firmly believe in refraining from body shaming or any form of negativity towards others.”
Hailey Bieber is currently married to Selena Gomez’s ex-BF, Justin Bieber. The couple officially tied the knot in a low-key courthouse wedding on September 13, 2018.
Prior to marrying Hailey, Justin had a highly publicized on-and-off romance with Selena Gomez. from 2010 to 2018.
