Hailey Bieber slams Billboard for Justin’s Greatest Pop Star rankings

Billboard recently introduced Justin Bieber’s ranking on the list of the 25 Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century. However, Hailey Bieber was not happy that her husband was in 8th place and shared her reaction on Instagram. Commenting on the publication’s announcement, the model said: “Billboard is a joke as usual.” The comment has since been deleted, but many fans shared similar reactions to the post.

Following the Rhode founder’s comment, Justin Bieber’s fans defended her position. Some felt that the singer should have been in the top 5 or top 3. A few others recalled how he was one of the artists who defined pop culture music and started “Bieber fever.” Many also slammed the publication, saying that the singer will always be their number 1.

Meanwhile, Justin is enjoying life as a father to his son, Jack Blues Bieber, whom he welcomed with Hailey in August. He announced the newborn’s arrival on Instagram with a photo of his wife holding little Jack’s feet. He has since shared rare glimpses of his son. Earlier this month, the singer posted a series of photos from Halloween with his family. He kept his son in a pink onesie as he cosplayed characters from “Kim Possible” with his wife.

According to Billboard, Justin Bieber has received eight Billboard Hot 100 No. 1s and eight Billboard 200 No. 1s. In 2021, he became the first male solo artist to debut at the top of both charts simultaneously with his hit ‘Peaches’ and his sixth studio album ‘Justice’.
