Justin Bieber has a new gal-pal, and it seems to be causing quite the stir.

After fans started to get mean about his new flame Sofia Richie on Bieber's Instagram, the "Love Yourself" crooner threatened to go private, which caused Selena Gomez to call out her ex-boyfriend. He then responded with his own sassy remark, claiming the "Hands to Myself" songstress used to use him.

"It's funny to see people that used me for attention and still try to point the finger this way. Sad. All love," he reportedly responded. "I'm not one for anyone receiving hate. Hope u all can be kind to my friends and each other. And yes I love my beliebers."

Even Hailey Baldwin, who dated the Biebs earlier this year has chimed in with her own two cents, seemingly taking Selena's side. So just who is Sofia Richie, and what's with all the kerfuffle? Here are five things to know about her:

1. Her last name sounds familiar because she comes from a very famous family! Sofia is the daughter of Lionel Richie and his ex-wife Diana Richie. She has two older siblings from different mothers, brother Miles Richie and sister Nicole Richie.

2. She's a model represented by Select Model Management. She has appeared in ES magazine and was named the face of Madonna's Material Girl clothing line.

3. She's an aspiring fashion designer who turns to Mary-Kate Olsenand Ashley Olsen for inspiration. "I look at the Olsen twins' company, The Row, and see how I'd like my line to be represented. I'd like it to be something you could wear day to day, or at night to a party," she previously told Fault magazine. "I want to be able to vary my outfits. At the same time The Row is taken very seriously and that's exactly how I want my line to be seen."

4. She's young—and she knows it. At just 17, Sofia is aware her age works against her in the fashion world. "I just want to be taken seriously with my fashion and not thought of as a ‘little girl' who has a stylist or something," she added.

5. Her squad runs deep. Sofia's friends include Bella Hadid,Alessandra Ambrosio, Joan Smalls and more.

Frank Ocean new album: How to listen and stream Boys Don’t Cry when it drops

After two missed release dates a year apart and a confusing decoy of a “live stream” video, Frank Ocean is set to finally release his second album, Boys Don’t Cry , on Friday 5 August. It will be launched through an exclusive deal with Apple Music, according to the New York Times , who cite a ‘person with knowledge of the release plans’. If indeed this is the case (and it would make sense, that live stream has an Apple watermark), it means you’ll need to sign up for Apple Music to listen to the Channel Orange follow-up, which costs £9.99 a month (£4.99 for students through Apple’s UNiDAYS promotion). You might want to turn off auto-renewal off though (Apple Music app > profile icon > View Apple ID. > Subscriptions > Manage > switch Auto-Renewal off), if you’re the kind of person who, like me, is liable to forget that you’ve signed up for the service indefinitely. Beyond Apple Music...

Why My Chemical Romance's 'The Black Parade' Was The 'Sgt Pepper' Of The Emo Generation

Secret (or not so secret) noughties emos rejoice! Grab some black hair dye and vow to disown your parents all over again! Because My Chemical Romance look set to reissue an expanded version of 'The Black Parade' , their third and most successful album, for its 10 year anniversary (yes, you really are that old). The news last night, stoked by a mysterious video teased on the band's long-dormant Twitter page, was enough to rev some sections of the internet into a frenzy. But what's all the fuss about? Well, the album in question wasn't just the band's best, nor just most succinct album of its genre, it was one of the most important records of the last decade. An "ostentatious concept-album-cum-rock-opera about death" , as we described it upon its release, the record is a bombastic tour-de-force that took cues from Green Day's 'American Idiot' (both albums were recorded with the same producer) but sounded nothing like its...
