Selena Gomez: I Didn"t Ditch The Weeknd for Justin Bieber! Honest!
When news broke that Selena Gomez and The Weeknd had split, none of us could help but think of how Selena had reunited with Justin Bieber so recently.
Had old Jelena flames rekindled?
Apparently it was The Weeknd who ended things, as hard as that may be to believe. What drove him to do it?
Remember this photo?
Back in September, Selena Gomez shared this rare pic with The Weeknd.
We now know, of course, that one of the reasons for the rarity of these photos is that Selena had spent basically her entire summer receiving and then recovering from a kidney transplant.
If you look at the dynamic of that snapshot, though, Selena Gomez looks engaged — she’s posting for the photo, after all.
The Weeknd looks like he’s a little checked out at the moment.
(Or, more likely, paying attention to someone or something out)
This photo turns out to be weirdly telling.
As apparently The Weeknd is the one who pulled the plug on their relationship … and, if you look at that photo again, that looks like the face of a man who’s not sure that he wants to be there.
TMZ reports that, per multiple sources, The Weeknd initiated the breakup.
And, honestly … we have very complicated feelings about this.
It seems that not only did The Weeknd end things, but it had nothing to do with the Biebs.
Apparently, the relationship between Selena and The Weeknd has been “fizzling out” since this summer.
They also apparently hadn’t seen each other very much (not enough, anyway) because The Weeknd had his busy touring schedule and Selena has had her busy shooting schedule.
So many celebrity breakups happen because, well, a lot of celebrity jobs require extensive travel and time apart.
Reportedly, another factor in The Weeknd’s decision was that he’d enjoyed being single …
(Of course he did. Some would question the point of being a young celebrity, regardless of gender, if you can’t enjoy the, um, perks)
… And felt “unfairly” tied down so Selena.
Oh? As for how that breakup went down?
The Weeknd apparently called Selena a few weeks ago and told her that it wasn’t working out and that, you know, they were over.
Here’s why we have complicated feelings about this.
First of all: who the hell breaks up a serious relationship over the phone?
That is barely better than a text message breakup.
But you know, we don’t have all of the information, and it might have been best that way. So, sure, let’s let that slide.
Instead, we’ll take a nice hard look at the timing of all of this.
When did their relationship start to lose its passion?
Over the summer.
So … right around the time when Selena Gomez got her kidney transplant.
Remember, Selena suffered kidney failure back in May and was rushed to the hospital as a result. It was all very hush-hush at the time.
And then, in June, Selena underwent her kidney transplant, courtesy of her friend, Francia Raisa.
Summer began in June, so … this seems to be saying that The Weeknd just lost interest because Selena was on bedrest after, you know, getting organs removed and implanted so that she wouldn’t die.
So that’s uncomfortable. We’re not saying that you’re not allowed to break up with someone who’s sick, but the timing of his disinterest really rubs us the wrong way.
We get that The Weeknd wanted to enjoy the single life and all of its perks, but Selena Gomez isn’t just one of the greatest singers in human history …
(Though she is definitely that)
… She’s also one of the most gorgeous women in the planet. So, you know, let’s play him a sad song on the world’s smallest violin.
But, hey — it’s his loss.
We wonder what this means for Jelena, though.
Some fans say good riddance to Justin Bieber, who’s neither as attractive as he once was nor as likable.
He may claim to have left his bad behavior and alleged life-threatening substance abuse problems behind him, but suffice it to say that it’ll take a little more convincing before Justin wins most people over.
And Selena already gave him a few of her best years. Few of her fans want to see her fall back into old habits.
That said, attraction towards exes doesn’t always go away. Justin Bieber offering his friendship to support Selena could develop into something else.
We’ll keep you posted.

Blake Shelton To Make Honest Woman Out Of Gwen Stefani SOON!
The surest sign that a couple will soon be engaged is ____.
This is the logic tabloids have been applying to Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani"s nearly five-month courtship.
Report after report claims that Stefani is carrying Shelton"s child, or that Shelton is so totally ready to propose to his former Voice co-judge.
As I write this, I"m flipping back and forth between a few stories having to do with Shelton spending time with Stefani and her sons in LA, and his eagerness to put a ring on her finger.
Gossip Cop showed a Snapchat of Shelton pitching to Stefani"s sons (off-camera).
Thanks to the magic of social media, Stefani showcased her weekend with the four gentlemen, which involved pool time at her gorgeous hillside home, napping and cooking.
A few weeks ago, Us Weekly was convinced that Shelton would propose to Stefani STAT.
“Gwen is everything he wants," a source said.
True, she"s a friggin" catch, but there hasn"t been an engagement yet.
Another source told People that Stefani thinks of her beau as "the biggest blessing," adding that "they share both good life experience, like work, and bad ones, like their divorces.
"They seem too perfect for each other for it to just be fluke," the source pointed out.
"For now, they seem happy with their relationship, but Blake is old-fashioned and a future engagement seems very possible."
Stefani told the New York Times that meeting Shelton was magic.
They both “had been going through literally the exact same thing in literally the exact same time frame,” Stefani explained, adding that that their relationship went through several emotional stages.
“We had anger, we had sadness, we had flirtation, we had sexy, and now we’re madly in love,” she said. “Never in my wildest, craziest dreams would I ever have seen this coming."

Star Wars Honest Trailer: May the Hilarity Be With You!
This may be a first:
Screen Junkies, the good amazing folks behind endlessly entertaining Honest Trailers, have created a new version for a film that has not even been released yet.
But it"s one you"ve likely heard of: Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Does that ring a bell?
Because the film hasn"t actually opened yet (DECEMBER 18, people!!!!), this edited preview doesn"t make fun of the plot or the story itself.
Instead, it sets its sights on the out-of-control anticipation surrounding the seventh episode in this iconic chapter.
"We could show you two hours of a monkey washing a cat and you"d still go see this movie…twice," the Honest Trailer says at one point.
"Who are you?" the narrator also asks Daisy Ridley"s character as the trailer opens, to which she replies:
"It depends who you ask, there"s a lot of fan theories floating around. But you can back-order a tiny version of my droid for $ 150."
The footage also makes fun of some of the less-appreciated (that"s a generous description, huh?) prequels that Star Wars fans wish they could forget, pointed out that The Force Awakens will (hopefully!) usher in a new era.
"The prequels…they"re gnawing at you…just let them go," intons the narrator, before the logo appears with the following statement:
"It"s on you, Abrams."
But no pressure, man. No pressure at all.
Check out the Honest Trailer below and then view the actual Force Awakens trailer by following our link.
May the humor be with you.
