Dressed in a sequined silver jumpsuit, the singer and actress looked radiant as she posed with Swift, who sported her signature red lip and a black minidress.

The couple shared sweet moments throughout the night, including a passionate kiss caught on camera that had fans swooning.
In another image, the pair, who got engaged late last year, looked happier than ever as they wrapped their arms around each other and shared a slow dance.
'As I prepare to celebrate my 33rd birthday, I can't help but reflect on the incredible journey that has brought me here,' Selena wrote in her caption. 'This past year has truly been the most beautiful year of my life, and I owe so much of that to all of you.'
Gomez continued, thanking her followers for their support through 'highs and lows' and promising to carry that love into her next chapter.

Aussie reality TV star welcomes son five years after ex-fiancé's death: 'We are so in love with you'
Milly Johnson has welcomed her third child with her partner Justin Hart, five years after the death of her former fiancé Micah Downey. The 29-year-old former Bride and Prejudice star shared the joyful news on Wednesday, posting a series of sweet photos to social media showing the couple doting on their newborn son. In one tender image, Milly is seen cradling her baby from a hospital bed while Justin lovingly looks on and another shot shows the proud mum beaming as she cuddles the infant. She captioned the post with a heartfelt message revealing the name of their little one: 'Introducing our little man Benny Johnson Hart. 'We are so in love with you,' Milly added alongside a love heart emoji. Many of Milly's followers took to the comments section to congratulate her. 'Awwwww he's adorable! Congrats lovely! Love the name,' one person wrote. 'So happy for you guys,' a second added. Milly already shares two sons with her late ex-fiancé Micah, who tragically passed away in December 2019 from a drug overdose at just 26. In 2021, Milly opened up about her struggle with depression after the sudden death of her former fiancé. In a candid social media post, she detailed her experience in the hope that it would help others. She explained that it was only after she was prescribed antidepressants that she started feeling better. 'Experiencing depression or anxiety as we all know is very normal and everyone experiences some form of that in their lifetime,' she wrote in a lengthy post. Milly already shares two sons with her late fiancé Micah, who tragically passed away in 2019 from a drug overdose at just 26 'But if it consumes your life for months on end then that's where something isn't right and needs addressing.' Milly acknowledged that there's no one-size-fits-all remedy, and encouraged people to do what's best for them. 'Yes, ideally most people would love to be all natural. For me personally, antidepressants was the best thing I ever did,' she continued. 'Who knows if I'll be on it forever or one day try wean myself off but for now I'm content with the idea I may take it for the rest of my life.' Micah died on December 28, 2019, after taking a mixture of illegal and prescription drugs. Milly later gave birth to the couple's second son on January 27, 2020, naming him Micah Harper Johnson in honour of his late father. She also has a seven-year-old son, Jules, who she also shares with Micah. 'It is so sad and unbelievably surreal that I am making this post. On the 28th of December 2019, Micah passed away,' Milly announced on Instagram on New Year's Eve in 2019. The former couple appeared on the 2019 season of the Channel Seven reality TV series Bride and Prejudice, but their relationship didn't last and they split before walking down the aisle.

Luke Bryan breaks silence after being hit in the FACE during shock concert moment
Country star Luke Bryan has broken his silence after he was hit in the face by a flying object during a performance at the North Dakota State Fair over the weekend. In an interview with Taste of Country, Luke, 49, said the whole crowd was having fun - but the individual who threw the object went 'too far.' 'It's the last song of the night. It was a big ole fun party, and I think one person just took it too far,' Luke told the publication, which noted the country singer sounded 'forgiving.' Luke admitted he could see himself confronting the culprit, however he doesn't necessarily believe that would be appropriate at a show where both adults and kids are present. Even calling out the person from the stage has the potential to ruin the show. 'I mean, if I saw him throw it, I could have gone right to him,' Luke said. 'I probably would have jumped right off in there. 'If I jump off in there ... there were a lot of little kids down there,' he said. 'At that point, if I'd even stopped it and pointed somebody out, it kills the vibe of the show.' According to KFYR-TV, the American Idol judge was singing his hit song Country Girl (Shake It For Me) when he was struck by a stress ball mid-performance on Saturday. A fan video shared on TikTok captured the moment Bryan paused briefly, glanced down at the ball and stared into the crowd before continuing with his set. 'Poor @Luke Bryan got hit in the face during his encore. Carried on like a champ though,' one fan wrote under the clip. Despite the unexpected interruption, Bryan maintained his composure and finished the song without missing a beat. 'There is no excuse for this,' one fan commented. Another added: 'Shame on whoever did this.' 'Who throws something at someone they paid to see?' a third asked. Others applauded Bryan's professionalism, with one viewer noting, 'Luke Bryan got hit but kept on rockin' — much respect.' Chief Deputy Larry Hubbard of the Ward County Sheriff's Office, who oversees security at the fair, confirmed to KFYR-TV that the incident involved a small plush or stress ball. While no injuries were reported, Hubbard said incidents like these are becoming more frequent. 'It is an issue, especially when they are throwing it at all, but when they're throwing it at the stage, at the artist. I think it paints the event in a bad light,' Hubbard said. He also noted that announcements are made before each concert, urging attendees not to throw objects. At this time, authorities have not identified the individual responsible, and there is no active investigation, as no complaints have been filed. Bryan joins a growing list of artists who've faced similar disruptions from audience members. In May, SZA walked out of a meet-and-greet after a fan threw a bracelet at her. In June 2023, Bebe Rexha was hit in the face with a cell phone during a New York concert, resulting in a cut above her eye that required stitches. 'There is no excuse for this,' one fan commented while another wrote: 'Shame on whoever did this' That same month, a Pink concert was interrupted when a fan tossed what was reportedly a bag of their mother's ashes onto the stage. Artists like Harry Styles, Cardi B, Lil Nas X, and Drake have also been targeted mid-performance. Previously Taylor Swift spoke out about how it 'really freaks' her out when objects are thrown on her stage. 'If it's on the stage, then a dancer could trip on it,' the Cruel Summer hitmaker told an audience in Buenos Aires during a 2023 Eras Tour show. 'I love that you brought presents and that is so nice, but just, can you please not throw them on the stage? I love you so much.' Though this latest incident ended without injury, fans and event organizers alike are calling for more accountability and respect for artists.

Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes Review – A disturbing and comprehensive look at David Berkowitz
Season 1 Episode Guide Episode 1 Episode 2 Episode 3 Out of all the true crime series on Netflix, Conversations with a Killer is one of the most chillingly intimate. With a unique hook of letting the killers themselves speak about their crimes, alongside re-enactments of these heinous crimes, some of the worst serial killers in history walk us through their reign of terror. This time around, the spotlight falls on The Son of Sam Tapes, which shines a light on the maniacal, egotistical David Berkowitz. Shooting his victims on the street or while sitting in parked cars, Berkowitz killed six people in total and wounded seven others during his rampage, gripping the city of New York in a stranglehold of fear. Feeling like an outsider all his life, Berkowitz was one of the more dangerous and unpredictable killers because on the outside, he was just an ordinary guy. He socialized with others, fell in with a decent crowd, patriotically fought for his country, and bounced around various odd-jobs. However, as we hear from various interviews with police officers, survivors and psychologists, underneath that façade Berkowitz was a 'walking, seething cauldron of rage'. This was a man desperate to be seen; a man willing to do whatever it took to get that attention, even if it meant killing innocent people. This three part docu-series peels back the smirking, nonchalant façade of this killer to uncover the real motives and reasoning behind his multiple killings. Each episode takes the usual hook from the Conversations with a Killer series, bouncing between two timelines. The first showcases recorded interviews of Berkowitz recounting his murders while behind bars. The other, jumps back to the chronological timeline of said murders and the police investigation that was underway at the time. The first episode looks at Berkowitz's family life, including his upbringing and lead-up to the first murders, before episode 2 tightens the screw and sees the origin of the .44 calibre gun, Berkowitz's inspiration derived from Taxi Driver and the start of taunting notes to the police. Notes which sport specific references to 'Mr Monster' and 'Son of Sam'. The third episode then focuses on a big break in the case, a shocking (but thankfully botched) grand finale bloodbath Berkowitz initially had planned, and his eventual arrest. In fact one of the most shocking moments comes when the police finally do capture David Berkowitz. He turned to the police, smirked and uttered: 'well you got me, what took you so long?' However, the story itself doesn't end there, as the final 10-15 minutes of the documentary feature another victim Berkowitz missed out recounting their story. We also see random theories and ideas (including the Twelve Disciples of Hell) and word from Berkowitz himself (as recent as 2024) about how he feels regarding the murders. The show also features (especially late on) the role of mainstream media and newspapers at the time. Hearing from Jimmy Breslin's son in particular, we see some of the shocking headlines that the newspapers ran with at the time. One in particular even includes Breslin basically egging on our killer to hit again. Overall though, The Son of Sam Tapes is a pretty comprehensive breakdown of Berkowitz and his reign of terror. It's hard to grasp just how fear-struck and panicked New York was at the time of Berkowitz's killing spree, but Conversations with a Killer does a decent job of showcasing some of this within the three episodes. This is a deeply affecting and in-depth documentary, and essential viewing for anyone who wants the complete story of this serial killer.
