A superfan's rage is unrivaled. Hailey Baldwin discovered this the hard way when Beliebers and die-hard Jelenas refused to believe the heartthrob had moved on from Selena Gomez. Selena dedicated her album, Rare, to her on-again, off-again romance with Justin, which didn't help matters. Selena's fans viciously mocked the newlyweds, forcing the singer to publish an online statement imploring her fans to be polite to the Biebers.
