Earlier this year in August, SZA took fans by surprise by teaming up with Justin Bieber for her new song, "Snooze," which also featured the likes of Benny Blanco, Young Mazino, and Woody McClain. She thanked everyone who put the song together, writing, "Thank you to everyone involved in making this happen !! Especially my co-stars for being so awesome."

As fans said it, she got in one, "from every clan!"

Hailey Bieber was one of the first to respond to the post, sending heart-eyed emojis, although social media users wondered how she was okay with all of this - given the video features some intimate scenes between a scantily clad SZA and Justin Bieber.

Fans also felt that Justin Bieber looked truly happy, writing, "AINT seen Justin smile this in a minute lmao." Some even felt he looked way too comfortable with SZA, commenting, "I thought I was the only one who noticed, you wouldn’t even know this mfer was married to another woman. You would think SZA was his lady."

Still more had problems with SZA being almost completely bare in the video, as they lamented, "Why do women always have to be [sans clothing] in these music videos, it’s so degrading, we are way more than just [that]."
