Selena Gomez Just Released a New Song. It"s Clearly About Justin Bieber.
Selena Gomez has released brand new music.
And it very clearly seems to focus on a famous old boyfriend.
Yes, we’re looking at you, Justin Bieber. (But you may want to look away right about now, before it’s too late.)
Back in March, Gomez and Bieber broke up, although source insisted at the time that this split was different from the MANY other times the stars parted ways.
They insisted this was merely a temporary setback for the singer, who had reconciled romantically in November, just a few months earlier.
However, now here we are in May and there are no real signs that Selena and Justin have been hanging out again.
Bieber is allegedly making himself as perfect as possible in order to appeal to his frequent girlfriend, but it doesn’t seem to be working.
Selena may truly be over Justin.
How do we know for sure?
Just consider the lyrics from her latest track, “Back To You.”
Gomez told Zane Lowe Thursday on Apple Music’s Beats 1 that this record is “special,” adding of the single:
“I want it to be a beautiful message in a really complicated way – but really fun.”
Will Bieber consider it beautiful, though? We somehow doubt it, not when the song appears to center on their romance and Selena’s regret over it.
Sings Selena:
We never got it right/Playing and replaying old conversations/Overthinking every word and I hate it/’Cause it’s not me, and what’s the point in hiding?
Everybody knows we got unfinished business/And I’d regret it if I didn’t say this isn’t what it could be.
You could break my heart in two/But when it heals, it beats for you/I know it’s forward, but it’s true/I wanna hold you when I’m not supposed to.
On one hand here, Selena is freely admitting that she can’t resist Justin Bieber. She just can’t say no to his personality or his smile or those rock-hard abs.
But on the other hand… she’s sounding wistful, isn’t she?
She’s not sounding very excited over the fact that she always ends up with this unnamed individual, she’s just sounding resigned to it.
Indeed: Gomez has “completely moved on” from Bieber and is “not interested in getting back together with him anytime soon,” an insider tells E! News, echoing a sentiment we have heard before of course.
But why do we believe it now more than ever?
Gomez nearly lost her life last summer upon getting a kidney transplant.
She appears to be a new lease on life.
She’s more mature and more grounded than ever and she certainly appears to have more perspective than ever before.
“Selena is going in a different direction with her life,” this same source tells E!, adding:
“She’s had a lot of self-reflection time and it’s been good for her. She’s hanging out with friends and taking it easy.”
Clearly, we still would not be stunned if Selena does get back together with Justin.
“When I’m lying close to someone else, you’re stuck in my head, and I can’t get you out of it,” she sings in this track, adding:
“If I could do it all again, I know I’d go back to you.”
But WILL she?
Will Selena go back to Justin in real life?
This is the question, folks.
Selena Gomez: I KNOW My Makeup Was Bad. Enough Already!
Selena Gomez is a gorgeous and talented woman, but fans noticed that at the 2018 MET Gala, she did not look her best.
Specifically, a number of people roasted her over looking like she had been on the receiving end of a bad spray tan. Some even suspected sabotage.
Selena has posted her response
Selena usually looks better on camera than this.
This has happened at least once before — Selena"s face appearing to have different, less flattering contours.
This time, fans could not help but notice, and those who don"t care if their words are unkind took to social media to point it out.
"Whoever gave selena gomez that spray tan tonight is holding a secret grudge against her."
We don"t believe that makeup artist Hung Vanngo was trying to sabotage her.
"Selena Gomez is looking like a reminder of why I’m scared to fake tan."
Ouch.
"Selena Gomez was counting one Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi while getting a tan yikes."
Others were clearly not trying to be too harsh to Selena but admitted that she had looked better.
"Selena Gomez isnt ugly but her makeup team did her so bad."
Someone else defended her … while roasting her.
"Everyone jumping down @selenagomez throat for her spray tan actin like half of y’all haven’t walked out of a tanning salon looking like a straight dorito. You’ve been there, I’ve been there, we’ve all been there."
Another believes that there may be a medical explanation.
"Guys she (selena gomez) had a kidney transplant! The medication after bloat you like crazy and swell you like crazy stop being so judgmental! If you dont accept what she looks like. Dont drag her down because its not “what you approve” …"
Selena Gomez herself responded by posting a video, which you can see in its entirety below.
In the caption of her Instagram video, she writes:
"Me when I saw my pictures from MET."
The video itself shows her running away from the camera, letting the train of her dress flow behind her.
It seems clear that she felt similarly about her makeup job to a number of her critics.
But … she also disabled comments on that video.
An insider tells People that Selena"s makeup fiasco was not apparent until the photos turned up.
"In person, she honestly felt great but not everything looks the same as it does in person."
Being photogenic is a real thing, and makeup that looks good in person does not always play well on camera.
And they reveal why she shared that video.
"She was just clapping back at people who were commenting on her tan and hair and wanted to make a joke about it."
We wouldn"t call that much of a clapback. It just seemed like she was gently acknowledging the situation.
In real life, Selena Gomez is as beautiful as she is magical and lyrical.
Admittedly, her dress was a disappointment when compared to Rihanna or Zendaya"s looks.
But not everyone who attends the MET Gala actually dresses for the assigned motif.
And, quite frankly, Selena still played by the rules a lot more than most of the men who were in attendance.
We"re sorry that her makeup caused so much criticism.
Selena"s done a couple of things in her life that warrant controversy. Showing up with contouring that doesn"t play well on camera should not be one of them.

Justin Bieber: Shading Selena Gomez for Faking Happiness?
The 2018 MET Gala has come and gone, leaving us all with photos and fond memories of extraordinary outfits like Rihanna’s and Zendaya’s. Also, a lot of disappointments.
Justin Bieber was not in attendance, but that didn’t stop him from posting a curiously cryptic tweet early the following morning.
Was the Biebs throwing shade at the MET Gala … or just at Selena Gomez herself?
Justin Bieber reportedly believes that it’s God’s plan for Selena Gomez to take him back.
He is a devout Christian from a family of devout Christians (check his mom’s Instagram from time to time; she’s been known to post End Times materials).
So it absolutely make sense that he would view major life events such as the biggest relationship of his life through a religious lens.
But, in the mean time, the two have been broken up since March.
And a lot of fans can’t help but wonder if Justin was referring to Selena when he wrote this:
“Hey world that glamorous lifestyle you see portrayed by famous people on Instagram don’t be fooled thinking their life is better than yours.”
That’s almost a sentence.
“I can promise you it’s not.”
While plenty of commenters pointed out how much money would improve their lives, others guessed at the timing of Justin’s post.
This was early in the morning, following the MET Gala.
And Justin’s ex, Selena Gomez, had attended.
We absolutely adore Selena Gomez, but while her dress is fine, it doesn’t really meet the assignment of the MET Gala.
Rihanna came out dressed like a stylish, sexy pope. Zendaya’s outfit was so inspirational that people have been drawing fanart of her as a warrior.
Chadwick Boseman, Cardi B, Ariana Grande, and others really lived up to and exceeded our expectations.
But some wonder if Justin saw these photos — the official ones, and the personal ones posted to social media — and grew jealous of the happy expressions.
Maybe he wasn’t so much speaking to fans as he was reminding himself that a smiling photograph does not equate to happiness.
And, indirectly, telling himself that Selena isn’t necessarily happy without him.
That’s what some fans interpreted his cryptic PSA to mean, anyway.
Let us consider, for a moment, that he was not referring specifically to Selena.
Perhaps he was making a broader statement.
Perhaps he was blasting many fellow celebrities — and we should note that Selena was not his only ex at the MET Gala.
(Hailey Baldwin, of course, attended arm-in-arm with Shawn Mendes)
Some celebrities go through awkward phases during which they reject many of the trappings of fame because they’re “fake” or whatever.
Or maybe Justin was really just trying to assure people at home that beautiful famous people have bad days, too.
There is also a chance that Bieber, though not a Catholic, took offense at the Gala’s Catholicism motif.
Though the Vatican approved it and even loaned a number of items for the event, a number (who were not aware of this) tried to raise an uproar and allege “cultural appropriation,” which this is not.
(For so many reasons, dressing like Catholic art with the official approval of the Vatican is not cultural appropriation)
Maybe Bieber was offended that people were using some pieces of Christian imagery as a costume.
But that, too, is just fan speculation.
That’s the problem with cryptic tweets — they leave people wondering what you really mean.
One of Justin’s biggest hits was “What Do You Mean,” so … he should understand that.

Selena Gomez Just Shaved Her Head Into an Undercut
Selena Gomez has changed her hair again … and no, she hasn’t gone back to blonde.
She has actually decided to make a more radical change than that … by shaving her head.
Take a look in the photos below.
When we first read that Selena Gomez had shaved her head, we were really taken aback.
She wouldn’t be the first supremely talented singer to do so, and a number of famous actresses have shaved their heads in recent years for beloved, hard-hitting roles in films.
But Selena’s hair is legendary.
In her music video for “Naturally,” her huge hair would be the most noticeable thing — if she didn’t have to be singing what is perhaps the greatest song that any human has ever produced.
We quickly realized, however, that there are many ways to shave one’s head without buzzing the entire thing.
For example: an undercut. In this case, an undercut at the back.
Selena posted a couple of photos of her new undercut, writing:
“Always need a subtle change. @puma Germany family time [smiley face emoji] grateful for the welcome!”
Wow, she summarized what she’s been up to very quickly.
She’s clearly busy.
Selena has of course been working with Puma a lot lately.
She and Puma have collaborated to contribute to the Lupus Research Alliance.
(By the way, Selena’s neck tattoo is the Roman numerals LXXVI, which is the number 76. Her mother was born in 1976)
Tim Duenas is the hairstylist to whom Selena entrusted the task of giving her this unorthodox undercut.
Sharing the photos of her now-shaved neck, he wrote:
“When your friend calls you to give #selenagomez an undercut… @marissa.marino killing it with the styling.”
He thanked both Selena and Selena’s stylist for thinking of him for the job.
“Thanks for letting me join in on the fun.”
He certainly did her justice.
It’s so nice to see Selena Gomez focusing on herself and her career.
So often, the news about her has to do with her love life.
She broke up with The Weeknd last year … and some still believe that he was just using her for fame.
She broke up — not for the first time — with Justin Bieber not too long ago.
While Selena’s been spending time on herself, Justin’s holding out hope that he and Selena are fated by God to be together.
It sounds like Selena deserves a break — from boy-drama, anyway.
So this isn’t Selena’s most drastic change — not to her life and not to her hair.
But she’s walking around with her friend’s kidney filtering her blood because her own body’s autoimmune system perceives her tissues and organs as the enemy and attacks them sometimes.
Fighting a battle against Lupus or a similarly dangerous disease can really change your perspective on what is or is not too daring of a thing to do with your body.
This undercut is very tasteful and practical and it’s intensely stylish.
As always with Selena, there’s a lot to love.

Justin Theroux: Is He Trying to Date Selena Gomez?
The first time that Justin Theroux broke his Instagram silence after he and Jennifer Aniston split, his post included a message to Selena Gomez. Most people didn’t think much of it at the time.
But a report claims that they’ve been exchanging many more messages in private.
Is this the beginning of something more? If so, what will Jennifer Aniston think?
RadarOnline reports that Justin Theroux has been covertly texting Selena Gomez in the wake of their respective splits.
“It was kind of an open secret that Justin was sweet on Selena when he and Jen hung out with her.”
(First of all, everyone is at least a little sweet on Selena Gomez because people aren’t as stupid as you think, so right that down)
“To be fair they did get on well.”
Selena and Jennifer are known to be friends.
“But he’s asking for major trouble by trying to hang out with her so soon after his and Jen’s split.”
Even if he has zero romantic intentions, it could look bad. Especially in his ex’s eyes.
Common sense says that Selena should just stop returning Theroux’s texts.
The source says that Selena is “not the type to blow someone off who she genuinely likes.”
As was revealed when Mandy Teefey, Selena’s mom, threw her under the bus over her recent choices, Selena answers to no one but herself.
So it doesn’t sound like anyone can convince her that she shouldn’t be texting back and forth with her good friend’s ex.
This could have some negative repercussions for her, but it might also make things worse between Jennifer and Theroux.
The source says that, in Jennifer’s mind, Selena is “very much her friend not Justin’s.”
This isn’t the first time that a report has linked Justin with an attractive, much-younger, latina actress in the weak of his split from Jennifer.
Intriguing rumors suggested that Justin Theroux and Audrey Plaza might pair up.
But it’s important to note that Theroux’s taste in women has not been reported as a contributing factor in ending his relationship with Jennifer Aniston.
Instead, the two are said to have broken up largely because they had different plans in mind for their lives.
If you can’t even agree on a place to live, as these two could not, it’s hard to see yourselves having a future together.
Funnily enough, Jennifer Aniston was spotted cozying up to The Weeknd, though that probably isn’t a budding relationship.
The photo, taken at Ellen DeGeneres’ 60th birthday party and snapped by Oprah Winfrey herself, included others.
Besides, it was a party.
Just as Selena and Theroux got to know each other through Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer and The Weeknd also recognized each other — thanks to Selena.
There is a difference between two celebrities talking to each other and the two of them dating. This isn’t elementary school.
It is difficult to say what, if anything, will become of Justin Theroux’s alleged texting with Selena Gomez.
After all, text messages are normal. Friends exchange them all of the time. The fact that one allegedly has the good sense to have a crush on the other doesn’t mean that this will turn into something more.
Could they end up together? Sure.
But, like it or not, the odds are probably better of her taking a different Justin back.
Especially since the Biebs is trying to make himself perfect in order to be worthy of Selena’s love.

Justin Bieber: I"m Making Myself PERFECT for Selena Gomez!
Selena Gomez seems to be just fine with the current breakup situation.
But it sounds like Justin Bieber still holding out hope … because he believes that their relationship is God’s plan.
In the mean time, a report gives the scoop on how he’s coping with their split.
As it turns out, there’s more to how Justin is dealing with Selena’s absence than just sleepovers with Baskin Champion.
HollywoodLife reports that the Justin Bieber is taking this time to better himself, perhaps to make himself a worthier partner.
“Justin has been working on himself during his time away from Selena.”
And clearly, there’s more to this self-improvement plan than showing off his excessive body tattoos.
“He has been going to bed early, waking up early, exercising daily, hiking, spending time with family, and writing a ton of new music.”
Wow! How many of us can say that? How many of us can say all of that?
Basically, it sounds like he’s trying to not totally screw things up with Selena this time around. Well, not more than things are already screwed up.
“His goal has been to stay out of trouble and be patient while Selena figures things out.”
That sounds smart. Maybe he really is growing up and maturing..
“It’s hard, ‘cause he really loves her a lot.”
Well, Selena is talented, beautiful, and well-spoken. There are plenty of reasons to love her.
“But as long as he is staying busy and productive, he is really happy.”
It almost sounds like all of this work that he’s reportedly doing to improve himself is also functioning as a distraction from the loneliness of once again living a Selena-less life.
Hmmm.
Overall, though, the report says that Justin believes that things will work out for him and Selena. That it’s inevitable and their destiny.
“He has his faith.”
Remember, Justin Bieber canceled his tour last year because he believed that God wanted him to. He’s super serious when it comes to his religious beliefs.
“And Justin believes strongly that love conquers all.”
Selena’s the one who grew to fame as a Disney star, but it sounds like the Biebs sees life as a Disney movie. In which he is the prince.
But as confident as Justin reportedly is that Selena will take him back, this source says that he’s prepared to accept it if God decides on a different course for his life.
“And, with or without Selena, everything will work out the way it is supposed to.”
That sounds healthy.
But … is Selena actually going to go back to Justin?
Honestly, most people didn’t expect her to take him back in 2017. But that happened … much to her mother’s chagrin.
Sure, Selena and The Weeknd had split. And yes, Selena had survived a life-threatening ordeal thanks to a kidney transplant.
Sometimes, when people have near-death experiences, they start rethinking their choices. But was that behind Selena’s decision to date Bieber again?
Or, as some believe, was it that she wanted to give him a chance, now that he was sober and seemed to be in a better place than he had been during their relationship.
But given that Selena and Justin broke up again, reportedly after a huge fight, it sounds like the Biebs hadn’t changed as much as Selena had hoped.
Which means that Justin might need to accept that his life is going to go in a different direction.
In the mean time … this report says that he’s writing new music.
Does this mean that he believes that God has decided that it’s okay for him to one day go back on tour?
Only time will tell.
