Image: Instagram stories/Selena Gomez Here's why: Just a day ago on May 20, the 'Rhode Skin' founder was on the cover of 'Vogue', making it her first solo cover of the magazine and her husband, Justin Bieber shared on social media that he once told her she will never be on the cover of the magazine. He captioned the post: 'Yo, this reminds me of when Hailey and I got into a huge fight. I told Hails that she would never be on the cover of 'Vogue'. 'Yikes, I know, so mean. For some reason, because I felt disrespected, I thought I gotta get even,' he wrote. Fans of the 'Sorry' hitmaker slammed him for saying that, since it was Hailey's big moment and called him out for saying that his wife. However, in hopes of diffusing the situation, Justin re-edited the caption to just a few emojis, which did not work. Fans commented about Gomez's Instagram story, expressing that Gomez is a kind person regardless of the history that the two women share. A social media user commented, 'Selena Gomez is really a girl's girl cause she went through the same emotional abuse with JB and is rooting for Hailey.' 'Can't wait for these two queens to work together and leave Justin Bieber spiralling in his own drama,' another user wrote. While another user added: 'It's obvious that Selena posted the message in her stories for Hailey, especially liking her photo. I'd love to see them being friends.'

Why Is ‘How Is Selena Gomez a Billionaire?' Trending? Explained
A new trend regarding status as a billionaire seems to have popped up after the acclaimed singer's mom reportedly took out a loan against her home. As such, netizens have come out to question the Wizards of Waverly Place star's wealth in the wake of her mother's decision to seek financial help from an external source. So, here's everything you need to know about why the singer is trending and why her mother chose to seek out a loan. The 'Love On' singer's mom recently took out a loan of an undisclosed amount against her own home to help Wondermind, the billionaire artist's mental health startup, pay its 15 workers. Through Mandy Teefey's efforts, the startup has been able to compensate its employees for one out of two missed paychecks. Nevertheless, the company has yet to clear its payments to freelancers and other vendors. While Wondermind owes 'tens of thousands' to the said parties, as per Forbes, the organization still has to pay an estimated $60,000 to a PR firm. The outlet further reported that monetary issues with the startup began in January 2023 when Gomez's mother took charge of Wondermind as its sole CEO. Emails obtained by Forbes further highlighted the company's dire situation, with Teefey even informing her employees that their healthcare partners will be forfeiting their benefits, in one of the messages. Due to Wondermind's precarious condition, combined with Mandy Teefy's recent decision to take out a loan, fans have asked questions about how Selena Gomez is a billionaire. The 'People You Know' singer made it to the elusive 10-digit club in September 2024, with a reported net worth of $1.3 billion. According to Bloomberg, a majority of Gomez's wealth comes from her Rare Beauty makeup brand, which she launched in 2020. Meanwhile, her acting and singing ventures, real estate investments, and paid partnerships also add handsomely to her massive fortune.

Selena Gomez developed a ‘face rash' after kissing Benny Blanco for the first time: ‘I was so disgusting and repulsive'
For all we can see, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco can barely keep their hands off each other. Be it an award show, a red carpet gala, or a casual night out with friends, the two's PDA-filled outings never miss a headline. But there was also a time when Gomez got a face rash after fiancé Blanco kissed her for the first time when they started dating. The I Said I Love You First duo recently appeared on Jessie and Lennie Ware's Table Manners podcast and didn't shy away from sharing some juicy details about their earlier encounter, including the embarrassing one. Selena Gomez was so nervous during her first kiss, says Blanco On Wednesday's episode, the music producer revealed how the two were playing the 'We're Not Really Strangers' card game on their second date. This was back in mid-2023 when they had just started hanging out. They were chilling on the couch, and one of the prompts told them to take a selfie together. Selena leaned on Benny's chest and snapped the photo, and the moment got a little more cosy than expected, to the point that Blanco just went for it. 'I gotta kiss this girl,' he told her. So he did. And according to both of them, it was a really good kiss. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO But right after the kiss, Selena's body kinda betrayed her. 'I kissed her right away, and her heart started beating so quickly, and she started getting a rash on her face … she was so nervous,' Blanco shared, laughing. Of course, that wasn't the real reason. But the Table Manners podcast host joked if the singer was allergic to Blanco, and he replied again with, 'She was, yeah. I was so disgusting and repulsive,' prompting Selena to hide her face in embarrassment. But, the Love On singer then explained she hadn't truly liked anyone in a long time, not in that deep, emotional way. 'Some kisses are just for fun,' she said. 'But when you feel something behind it, it's completely different.' For the unversed, Selena is quite a private person when it comes to dating, and the singer was not linked to anyone romantically for almost five years before going official with Benny Blanco—minus, as she put it, a few 'shty dates here and there.' So when this kiss felt different, she didn't know how to act. 'I was a little embarrassed,' Selena admitted. 'He asked, 'Are you OK?' And I was like, 'No, no, I'm fine.' I didn't want to say, 'I like you, I really like you.''** And despite the awkwardness, according to the duo, that kiss actually kicked off everything. From that day, things just felt easy between them. They kept dating, and Selena, who Benny called 'so insane' about punctuality, would even show up to his house 20 to 30 minutes early for their dates, just to make sure she wasn't late. 'Her car would just be parked outside for like 30 minutes, and she would just wait until it was time to come in,' Blanco shared. 'I don't think we've ever said that out loud to anyone, but it's so funny,' Gomez said. 'It's just, I don't know, I was nervous that I really liked him and I wanted to get there and, like, maybe call a friend to pump me up or do my makeup again or something.' Benny and Selena first met in way back in 2013, through Selena's mom. They later worked together on music like Kill Em With Kindness and 'Same Old Love.' But the romance didn't begin until much later. around mid-2023. They confirmed their relationship in December that year.

Selena Gomez and Karla Sofía Gascón have awkward exchange at 2025 Oscars after alleged ‘rich rat' remark
Selena Gomez and her 'Emilia Pérez' co-star Karla Sofía Gascón were forced to come face-to-face at the 2025 Oscars — months after Gascón's scathing remarks about Gomez came to light. The duo rubbed shoulders with the Hollywood elite on Sunday night, where Gascón was nominated for Best Actress but ultimately lost out to 'Anora' star Mikey Madison. The star-studded event came just weeks after several of Gascón's past social media posts resurfaced, in which she criticized Muslim culture and George Floyd. She even allegedly called Gomez a 'rich rat' before being cast opposite her in 'Emilia Pérez.' In a now-viral exchange, Gascón — who skipped the red carpet — was seen walking over to Gomez, who was sitting in her seat during the Oscars ceremony at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. As Gascón, 52, approached the 'Love On' singer, Gomez, 32, stood up and awkwardly kissed her co-star on the cheek before sitting back down. Needless to say, the brief interaction was met with confusion from fans on social media. 'Selena should stop talking with her. Karla is disgusting after everything she did,' one person wrote on X. Another added: 'Hm, not sure why a kiss was necessary after all of that??' 'Yikes. Well that's awkward,' a third added. After Gascón's alleged and since-deleted tweet resurfaced online, internet sleuths discovered that it was originally shared in 2022 after Gomez and Hailey Bieber came together at the annual Academy Museum Gala amid their alleged feud, according to the Latin Times. However, Gascón told CNN en Español last month that the tweet about Gomez is fake. 'Of course that's not mine,' she said during the interview, which she allegedly did without Netflix's approval. 'I have never said anything about my partner. I would never refer to her that way,' the actress added. Gascón's controversy loomed large ahead of Sunday's Academy Awards, where she was the first openly transgender performer to be nominated. Her co-star Zoe Saldana, who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for the film, previously said that she's 'disappointed' over the drama involving her co-star. Gomez, for her part, broke her silence on Gascón's alleged tweets last month, admitting that 'some of the magic has disappeared' when she was asked how she's doing after the ordeal. 'But I choose to continue to be proud of what I've done, and I'm just grateful,' Gomez said.'I live with no regrets,' the Golden Globe nominee added, 'and I would do this movie over and over again if I could.' During his opening monologue, Academy Award host Conan O'Brien poked fun at Gascón's social media controversy. Noting that 'Anora' — which picked up the top awards on Sunday night — used 'the F-word 479 times,' O'Brien added, 'That's three more than the record set by Karla Sofía Gascon's publicist: 'You tweeted WHAT?'' 'Karla Sofía Gascón is here tonight and Karla, if you are going to tweet about the Oscars, remember my name is Jimmy Kimmel,' he added, as a cringing Gascón responded with a tight smile.
