A brief, nine-second video clip showcasing Hailey Bieber performing a glute-focused workout has rapidly gone viral on social media, sparking widespread discussion and division among viewers about celebrity fitness culture.
In the clip, Bieber is seen in a well-equipped home gym, wearing casual workout attire. She performs resistance-band leg lifts before moving to a bench for dumbbell bridges, targeting her glute muscles.
The video quickly amassed thousands of comments, with reactions sharply divided. Some viewers found the routine inspiring, with comments like "Starting Monday, I'm gonna start doing hip thrusts like this," praising the accessibility of her approach.
However, the clip also drew significant criticism. Many commenters, particularly men, expressed disdain for what they perceived as low-intensity celebrity workouts. One criticized the use of "the lightest weight possible," while another labeled such celebrity posts as "the worst thing you're ever gonna see." Some critics contrasted Bieber's routine with influencers they deemed more serious, like Sofi Maure, who uses heavier weights.
The intense online debate highlights the ongoing public fascination with and scrutiny of how celebrities choose to exercise and share their routines with the world.
