Look: Selena Gomez celebrates birthday with Taylor Swift, Benny Blanco in attendance
Though her actual birthday falls on July 22, the Rare Beauty founder got the party started early, surrounded by friends, family, and her fiancé Benny Blanco, with none other than best friend Taylor Swift also in attendance.
In photos shared to social media, Gomez stunned in a shimmering silver sequinned jumpsuit paired with a plush fur jacket, silver jewellery, and her dazzling marquise-cut diamond engagement ring. One standout image showed her sitting among a sea of balloons beside Swift, who rocked a sleek black minidress and her signature red lipstick.
In another snap, Gomez cosied up to Blanco, who channeled the disco vibe in a velvet blazer layered over an animal-print shirt with a dramatic collar.
Alongside the photo dump, Gomez took a moment to reflect on the year gone by and the one to come.
"As I prepare to celebrate my 33rd birthday, I can't help but reflect on the incredible journey that has brought me here. This past year has truly been the most beautiful year of my life, and I owe so much of that to all of you," the caption read. "Thank you for your unwavering love and kindness. Whether you cheered me on from the sidelines, shared in my highs and lows, or simply offered a listening ear, you have made this year unforgettable. I am extremely humbled and insanely appreciative of all your love.

"As I step into this new year, I'm filled with excitement and hope for what's to come. I look forward to sharing more moments with all of you, creating new memories, and continuing this beautiful journey together. MADLY LOVE YOU ALL."
The birthday bash comes hot on the heels of growing buzz around Gomez and Blanco's upcoming wedding, reportedly set to take place later this year. The couple got engaged in December 2024 after more than a year of dating, and Swift is expected to be on the guest list.

Ex-Astronomer CEO to sue Coldplay over viral kiss cam video?
Ex-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron could sue Chris Martin's Coldplay for defamation, according to a Page Six report. This came after an unexpected kiss cam moment from Coldplay's recent concert made global headlines, bringing the former CEO and HR exec's personal lives under fire. In videos going viral on social media, Byron was seen sharing an intimate moment with the company's head of human resources, Kristin Cabot. In days after the incident, Byron resigned from his position amid growing backlash and an internal review from the Board of Directors. According to a Page Six report, Byron can possibly sue Coldplay due to the massive fallout he suffered after the kiss cam fiasco with his former colleague. Attorney Camron Dowlatshahi spoke to the outlet and shared, "If we are getting creative, a possible claim would be for defamation, specifically as it relates to Chris Martin characterising the two as having an 'affair.'" During the concert, Martin passed a brief remark as the camera caught Byron and Cabot, jokingly stating, "Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy." The attorney went on to explain that Byron would need to prove that the singer's comments were defamatory and refute the "affair" claims, which he believes wasn't the case. He also said that Byron will need to prove that Chris Martin knew about his innocence and "made the statement anyway with malice." "None of those elements will be met, so any claim against Coldplay would be frivolous. I also very much doubt that Mr Byron would want further public scrutiny by bringing a borderline frivolous suit against the event organizers and/or Coldplay," he added.

Madame Tussauds to unveil 13 Taylor Swift wax figures worldwide
Taylor Swift will be honored with 13 wax figures at Madame Tussauds museums around the world. Thirteen of the museum's 22 global branches will each receive a statue of the American pop star, in what Madame Tussauds described as its most ambitious project. The number was chosen as a tribute to Swift's longtime lucky number, 13. 'This is the most ambitious project in Madame Tussauds' 250-year history, which only feels right to reflect the stratospheric status of Taylor Swift,' said Danielle Cullen, the museum's senior figure stylist. The wax figures are based on the singer's various looks from her Eras Tour, which ran from 2023 to 2024 and became the highest-grossing concert tour in history. The tour held 149 shows and earned more than US$2 billion (₱114 billion). Over 40 artists worked for more than a year to complete the sculptures. Swift is a 14-time Grammy winner and one of the most recognized musicians globally.
