Francesca Farago, the reality TV star known for Too Hot To Handle, just dropped a bomb: she says some TikTok creators are getting paid to post negative content about Hailey Bieber. According to Farago, she was offered a big chunk of cash to hop on the trend, but she turned it down, calling it “cruel” and “unethical.”
Are TikTok Creators Being Paid to Bash Hailey Bieber?
In a video posted on her Snapchat account, Farago explained that while it’s common for creators to get paid for using certain songs or hopping on viral trends, this case was different. It allegedly involved a paid campaign meant to defame Hailey. Although she didn’t name names or show direct proof, her claims have sparked major speculation about a coordinated online attack against the model.
The trend in question revolves around videos mocking Hailey Bieber and indirectly painting her as a “stalker” of romantic couples. One of the most popular audios in the trend features Justin Bieber saying “Benny, believe me.” While this audio has been widely used in the anti-Hailey videos, Farago clarified that it wasn’t directly related to the attacks.
The line between online humor and targeted harassment seems blurrier than ever — and Hailey is at the center of it all.
Hailey and Justin Bieber’s Recent Drama
This isn’t the first time Hailey Bieber and Justin have been the subject of intense online scrutiny. In April 2025, a video surfaced from Las Vegas that appeared to show Justin arguing with Hailey. Fans immediately grew concerned, but eyewitnesses later explained he was just telling a story with lots of enthusiasm — not fighting with his wife.
Earlier this year, Justin unfollowed Hailey on Instagram, fueling rumors of relationship trouble. Justin later said his account had been tampered with, and Hailey explained the unfollow was caused by a technical error. Then in March, Hailey attended the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty solo, prompting more speculation — which she quickly shut down, saying she’s happy and sharing sweet family moments online.
The Controversial Documentary Stirring the Pot
As if the couple didn’t already have enough on their plate, a recent documentary added fuel to the fire. It suggested Hailey had been obsessed with Justin since she was a teen and even tried to imitate his ex, Selena Gomez. Unsurprisingly, this sparked major debate on social media, splitting fans between Hailey Bieber supporters and critics.
Despite all the drama, both Justin and Hailey Bieber have consistently shown a united front. They’ve reaffirmed their love and tried to keep their personal life as private as possible. But in a world where viral trends and shady marketing tactics can shape public perception, separating fact from fiction isn’t always easy.
One thing’s for sure: if Francesca Farago’s claims are true, the internet may have crossed a line from fun trends into full-blown digital bullying.
