Hailey Bieber has taken to social media to show support for Justin Bieber’s SWAG, after the pop star’s new album was roasted by some critics after its release.
ICYMI, Justin shared his first new music in four years on Friday, surprise-releasing 21 tracks with featured artists including Gunna, Sexyy Red, Druski, Dijon and Lil B, among others.
While SWAG — the follow-up to Justin’s 2021 album Justice — has been received with love by most fans, some reviewers were a little less friendly in their critiques, with The Telegraph describing the collection of tracks an “uncomfortable and unfiltered cry for help” amid Justin’s supposed emotional woes.
Firing back at such criticisms, Hailey showed love for her husband’s album with a recent post on her Instagram Stories, resharing the streaming numbers SWAG has amassed in the days since its release.
Hailey reposted statistics shared by a Bieber fan account, which claimed his album “earned 74.37 million streams on the Global Spotify Chart in its FIRST day, beating Justice and becoming Justin’s biggest debut ever on the platform”.
It marked Hailey’s second show of support amid criticisms of SWAG, with the model also resharing an image of the billboard promoting the album and its tracklist in New York City’s Times Square.
“Is it finally clocking to you fucking losers?”, Hailey captioned the post (per Daily Mail), in reference to the line Justin delivered when confronting the paparazzi in a moment that went viral in June.
Justin also got in on the joke himself, with the 16th track on SWAG, “Standing On Business”, likewise calling back to the now-infamous and heavily-memed monologue he gave to reporters last month.
It’s not the first time Hailey has stood on business when it comes to her husband, especially amid the avalanche of headlines the pair have spawned throughout their eight-year marriage.
In April, Hailey was forced to deny rumours she had unfollowed Justin on Instagram after his worrying livestream, and before that, she outright declared that the rumours about the state of their marriage — many of which were brought on by Justin’s social media antics — are “made out of thin air” and “come from the land of delusion”.
Whatever the case, it’s doubtful that anything on SWAG will be quite as catchy and earworm-y as the modern day prophecy that is: “You’re not getting it. It’s not clocking to you. It’s not clocking to you that I’m standing on business, is it?”.
