This summer, Twitter has thrown its fair share of parties to celebrate the "end" of celebrities like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber, the victory of celebrities like Selena Gomez and the deactivation of celebrity social media accounts.

August 2016:After Justin posted several Instagram photos of himself with new rumored girlfriend, Sophie Richie, fans began to leave negative comments on his account.

Bieber's ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez then chimed in, commenting on his photo, "If you can't handle the hate then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol..." After Justin responded to Gomez's comment, accusing her of using him for attention, Selena quickly fired back with allegations that Bieber cheated on her multiples times while they were together, which led to the #SelenaEndedJustinParty.
