Nick Jonas
  • Nick Jonas found himself at the center of a social media firestorm.
  • He witnessed an unexpected exchange with tech mogul Elon Musk.
  • His playful reply to Musk’s tweet ignited a heated debate among fans.

Nick Jonas found himself at the center of a social media firestorm following an unexpected exchange with tech mogul Elon Musk on December 17. The 32-year-old singer’s playful reply to Musk’s tweet ignited a heated debate among fans.

Musk had shared a Jonas Brothers GIF with the caption, “My, how the tables have turned!” celebrating Tesla’s success after Donald Trump’s election. In response, Jonas retweeted the post with a cheeky comment: “Take us to the Year 3000,” along with a smiling photo of Musk. The interaction quickly sparked controversy due to Musk’s political ties and polarizing views.

Many fans questioned Jonas’ intentions, with some speculating that he was endorsing Musk or his controversial political connections.

One user wrote, “Delete this,” while another urged, “Be better, Nick,” criticizing Musk’s alleged influence over vulnerable groups. Fans even tagged Nick’s wife, Priyanka Chopra, questioning her involvement in his social media behavior.

However, not all reactions were negative. A supporter welcomed Jonas, saying, “Welcome aboard, Nick!” Another chimed in, “You can think Elon has good ideas and is a visionary AND still disagree with him sometimes. Same with Trump. They both used to be Democrats. Maybe we should all collectively chill and stop being so polarising.”

The exchange left fans divided, with some calling for more careful social media interactions from celebrities.

  • Selena Gomez’s fans have raised suspicions on social media.
  • It all started when an Instagram post was shared by Justin Bieber.
  • They call out Hailey Bieber for being the mind behind it.

Fans of Selena Gomez have raised suspicions that Hailey Bieber was behind the recent PDA-packed Instagram post shared by her husband, Justin Bieber.

The post, featuring a cozy selfie with Hailey set to Lizzy McAlpine’s song All My Ghosts, ignited a heated debate among fans.

The song’s theme, centered around an ex’s wedding, led many to question the timing of the post, which coincided with Selena Gomez’s engagement announcement on December 11.

Some fans, known as “Selenators,” flooded the comments section with accusations, claiming Hailey had posted the photo on Justin’s behalf.

“This is Hailey posting these pictures,” one user alleged, while another wrote, “Guess Hailey is posting for you again.” A third chimed in, saying, “Hailey, log off, omg.”

Despite both Hailey and Selena publicly stating that there is no bad blood between them, fans remain unconvinced by this claimed harmony. One fan expressed frustration, writing,

“My God, this post is pathetic and so sad. Of course, his hysterical fans will say I’m paranoid, but you need to stop lying to yourselves! He’s trying to send a message! Or maybe just trying to get attention. But seriously, why at this specific moment and with this song? Why?”

This post marked Justin’s first since Selena’s engagement, leaving fans divided over its true intention.
