Selena Gomez

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Katy Perry was honored at the VMAs this past week with the Vanguard Award, (lifetime achievement) and Taylor Swift was seen in the audience singing and dancing along to the performance. This made headlines because the gals went from best friends to enemies after a well publicized spat over back-up dancers. They recently buried the hatchet, and there’s a reason Taylor was so animated in the audience while Katy performed – they are planning to do a DUET together. We just heard about the top secret plan and the single will be released in early 2025.

Speaking of Taylor Swift, the weeks’ biggest news was her endorsement of Kamala Harris. We recently revealed her boyfriend Travis Kelce was planning to follow in her footsteps and endorse the Democratic nominee as well, but we just heard that plan has hit a snag. Travis plays for the Kansas City Chiefs and the owners are Trump supporters. Poor Travis is facing a real-life Sophie’s Choice, either disappoint his girlfriend or the people who sign his paycheck. My source says he is still hoping for a way to endorse Kamala without officially endorsing her, which means expect to see him at one of her upcoming rallies.

Selena Gomez made the news this week when it was revealed she was worth approximately $1 billion thanks to her line of beauty products. According to our source, Selena is wasting no time spending her newfound fortune. She just began looking at homes in Montecito, California, right down the street from where Oprah Winfrey resides. My source explains that her goal is to get married and have a child via surrogate in 2025 and she loves the idea of raising a family in the affluent coastal community.

Donald Trump made headlines for his disastrous debate performance against Kamala Harris and he just announced he won’t be participating in any more debates. We just heard this scoop though. Kamala had accepted a few offers to debate Trump on NBC and she still plans on showing up to spread HER message to the American people even if Trump is a no show.

Finally, Jennifer Lopez made headlines when she appeared in Toronto at her Unstoppable movie premiere alongside Matt Damon but without her estranged husband Ben Affleck. (Ben, Matt, and Jen all produced the film). J.Lo and Matt were seen clasping hands engulfed in conversation and we just heard they weren’t talking about their movie. My source says Matt is devastated that Ben and Jen are calling it quits and he was encouraging her to work it out. We have all seen Ben’s history of spiraling when he’s single, and Matt is fearful Ben will fall off the sober wagon once he faces the reality of being alone again. Jennifer still loves Ben but our source says his mood swings became too much for her to handle. The ONLY way she’s calling off the divorce is if he checks into a treatment center and gets his moods under control.

SELENA GOMEZ CONGRATULATES THE BIEBERS

Selena Gomez was among the first to congratulate her ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey on the recent birth of their son Jack Blues. Selena, who has some sort of endorsement deal with Louis Vuitton, sent the proud new parents the brand’s $630 birth set which includes booties, mittens and a skull cap all in baby blue pure cashmere! According to my source, despite the manufactured tales of a rift between Selena and Hailey there is no bad blood, and The Only Murders In The Building actress is genuinely happy for Justin and Hailey.

SELENA GOMEZ’S BOYFRIEND IS ALMOST PERFECT

Selena Gomez is over the moon happy with her relatively new boyfriend, music producer Benny Blanco, but unfortunately the same can’t be said for his UNIBROW. Benny (real name: Benjamin Levin) is physically the polar opposite of Selena‘s previous boyfriends (including Justin Bieber) but nonetheless Selena is gushing that Benny treats her wonderfully and she’s never been happier. While she’s attracted to his unconventional looks, she secretly wishes he would visit an aesthetician to get his eyebrows waxed. As my source put it, it’s the only thing Selena wishes she could change about Benny, but she doesn’t dare to bring it up to him since she doesn’t want to hurt his feelings.

FAVORITE PHOTOS FROM VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS

The theme for the VMA’s this year seemed to be “how naked can you get” and we saw more skin than EVER before. Plus more fakery in the way of hair, nails, and eyelashes. Our favorite look belonged to Selena Gomez – her red gown was sexy without being lewd, and she simply looked beautiful-and appropriate.
We also loved this photo of Sean Combs and Taylor Swift and wonder who’s idea it was. Did Sean approach Taylor with his award or did Taylor (who got too many awards to carry) ask Sean for the photo? It COULD have been the photographer’s idea…either way, they are an interesting and unexpected combo…

SELENA GOMEZ AND HAILEY BIEBER ARE FRIENDS AGAIN

Selena Gomez and Hailey Baldwin Bieber want the world to know they’re definitely on good terms, SUCH good terms that Hailey could appear on season three of Selena’s popular series, Only Murders in the Building. Rumors swirled that they disliked each other because Hailey married Selena’s ex, Justin Bieber. But any hard feelings between them have long passed, and they’re working on a genuine friendship. The show got picked up for a third season and this time the action revolves around Broadway. An insider told me that Hailey could wind up playing a Broadway star who’s connected to the murder victim.

ANOTHER MURDER IN THIS NEW YORK BUILDING

We have to admit we like the stars (Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, and Martin Short) of Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building better than the actual story, but that’s enough to pull us back for another season. After a murder in their NY apartment building, the tenants get to know each other and join forces to solve the crime. There were funny moments in season 1, but the story seemed rather haphazard and the finale was puzzling. The producer promises that the new season of the comedy/mystery (it makes fun of TV crime shows) that just started filming, will tie up all the loose ends and satisfy viewers. The series is also drawing celebrity cameos- Amy Schumer and Shirley MacLaine, among others, are poking their noses into season 2.

SELENA GOMEZ ON TOP OF THE WORLD

Selena Gomez is back at work filming that movie we told you about – Only Murders in the Building – and she has never looked better! She has survived much more than a pandemic- Selena has had a LOT of health problems recently – besides treatment for anxiety and depression, she has dealt with Lupus and a kidney transplant. The only GOOD thing that happened was her split from Justin Bieber! We got a few more details about her movie – it seems Selena’s character lives in the same upscale NY building as Steve Martin and Martin Short, but they are only nodding acquaintances. Each of them returns home every day and devours true-crime shows like Dateline. One time they are all in the elevator with a 4th tenant who later turns up dead. They get together to solve the crime, but vow “Only Murders in the Building” – hence the title.

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH SELENA GOMEZ?

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are taking another one of their breaks, and the press is blaming it on her mother’s interference. Apparently mom doesn’t think Justin is good for her daughter. It’s starting to look like Selena can’t live WITH Justin or WITHOUT him. Selena walked out of her Pilates class today looking like she’s almost given up. And she’s carrying a big fat BIBLE (specifically The Everyday Life Bible) Something is very wrong. Adding to the confusion, Justin says he wants her back. We hope she gets a grip on this…

SELENA GOMEZ HAS ATTRACTED A FLOCK OF FANS

Selena Gomez has attracted dozens of admiring ducks in Encino’s Balboa Park and she offered them a snack. We love her vintage Wrangler overalls. Having just returned after two weeks of treatment for anxiety and depression, the 25 year old singer looks happy. (She apparently has a hard time dealing with her Lupus AND her social life.) This past year has been a doozy for her – she split with The Weeknd, had a liver transplant, and reunited with Justin Bieber. All’s well that ends well…

BEST AND WORST DRESSED: AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS 2017

BEST DRESSED: Hands down, Selena Gomez was voted Best Dressed at the American Music Awards the minute she set foot on the red carpet. Not only is she dressed appropriately for the occasion – young, rock n roll, sexy, but not TOO sexy, with brand new blonde hair, but she didn’t look like she was trying TOO hard. And everyone was happy to see her looking as beautiful and healthy as ever after her liver transplant.
WORST DRESSED: We like Kelly Clarkson far too much to let her stylist get sway with THIS! Kelly is beloved for her natural, wholesome good looks- and this look at the AMA’s couldn’t be more artificial. (Talk about trying TOO hard!) That heavy makeup (black lipstick?) matronly too-fancy gown, and droopy extensions make her look like a cross between a 1980’s country singer and a Goth opera singer. That’s NOT our sweet Kelly. Did you know she has a ranch in Texas for unwanted (blind, crippled etc) animals? We rest our case.
