Hailey Bieber has once again proven her grace under pressure after addressing online trolls who compared her to a transgender woman.
During her recent appearance on Owen Thiele’s In Your Dreams podcast, the model and Rhode Skin founder calmly responded to the remarks, using the moment to spread a message of positivity and respect.
The 27-year-old entrepreneur said she was not offended by such comments, explaining, “Trans women and trans men are some of the most beautiful people in the world. So, if someone says I look like a trans woman, I just think they’re calling me gorgeous.”
Her statement quickly went viral across social media platforms, earning widespread praise from fans and LGBTQ+ advocates. Many applauded Hailey for handling hate with dignity instead of anger and for using her influence to promote kindness and inclusivity.
This isn’t the first time Hailey Bieber has voiced support for the queer community. In 2023, she joined an open letter organized by GLAAD, urging social media giants like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Shou Zi Chew to take stronger measures against online hate and misinformation.
Fans online celebrated her mature approach, with one user on X (formerly Twitter) writing, “Hailey Bieber turning a transphobic comment into a compliment is how you handle trolls — pure class.”
Hailey’s calm, confident response has once again shown why she remains one of Hollywood’s most admired and poised public figures.
