Selena Gomez may re-record THIS song inspired by bestie Taylor Swift: 'Need to redo, recut it'
Selena Gomez is considering re-recording one of her most beloved tracks 'Who Says' more than a decade after its release. The 33-year-old singer and actor revealed her plans during an appearance on the 'Therapuss with Jake Shane' podcast, drawing comparisons to her best friend Taylor Swift's celebrated re-recording projects. Gomez, according to another Daily Mail report, confessed that she recently teared up while hearing the song on the radio during a trip abroad. She explained, 'It was the little me who was there saying these really powerful messages that I still need to hear.' Originally, the song's meaning resonated with her as a relatable teen anthem, but now, she connects with its empowering lyrics on a deeper level, especially in light of societal beauty standards and self-image pressures. Gomez said that she needs to redo and recut it. She said the original sounds 'young' compared to her current voice. According to Billboard, before launching her solo career, Gomez fronted the pop-rock band 'Selena Gomez & The Scene', before producing three studio albums from 2009 to 2012. 'Who Says', released in 2011 as the lead single from her album 'When the Sun Goes Down', remains a highlight for the star. Gomez was quoted in the Billboard report saying it is the most powerful moment when she gets to perform the song. She admitted it is the main reason she would ever consider touring again. She added that if she were to sing the song today, she would 'take it down an octave' from the original as her voice has matured. During the same podcast episode, Gomez reminisced about her 16-year friendship with Taylor Swift. The two first met as teens when Gomez was dating Nick Jonas and Swift was with his brother Joe. After both relationships ended, they bonded over their breakups and became inseparable. Gomez was quoted in a Daily Mail report saying that Swift and she believe that their friendship was the best thing to come out of their relationships with the Jonas brothers. 'We've been through the ups and downs together ever since,' the Hands to Myself singer said. She is considering re-recording her 2011 hit 'Who Says.' She feels her voice has matured, wants to adjust the key, and now connects with the song's message more deeply. Gomez's idea mirrors Swift's own re-recording projects, and the two are longtime best friends. They met in their teens while dating Nick and Joe Jonas, respectively.

28 Silly Reasons Why People Unfollowed A Celebrity
In today's day and age, it's easy to have a parasocial relationship with your fav celebrity. I'll admit, me and Harry Styles go wayyyyyy back. But for the same reasons one may follow a celebrity, there are many others for unfollowing a celebrity. Over on Reddit, people are chiming in about the most unserious reasons they hit that unfollow button. Here were some of the best (and most hilarious) responses... "Jake Gyllenhaal could do no wrong in my eyes, he has been hot in every iteration of himself. Bald, skinny, dorky, Donnie Darko, jacked Prince of Persia, creepy crime scene photographer. But once he admitted he doesn't shower often I lost my lady boner. 😞" "I don't know if this counts because I didn't enjoy his music before this, but I hate Ed Sheeran because he talked about how he always farts while performing and sh*t himself on stage once because he misjudged a fart. He also admitted he doesn't change his underwear everyday during the same interview. Nasty ass (literally), man probably has skid marks in his undies. It's all I can think about when I hear his music and I have to change the station." "Miles Teller looks like a hybrid of two of my exes. His voice even sounds like a mix of their voices. I just can't even look at him without getting the creeps." "I got back into Charlie Puth briefly when he released songs like 'Light Switch' and 'Left and Right.' However, he did this one interview where he mentioned how he would have an idea for a song in the middle the deed. He said he stopped to record a voice note, then got back to doing the nasty. I don't think I've listened to any of his music since." "I stopped watching the show Bad Sisters because I felt like the main characters on that show all have bad breath. How would I know? I'll never know. But I can't get over it." "I think I was 10 when Selena Gomez came out with 'Who Says' and as an avid stan and reader of J-14 and Tiger Beat, I was APPALLED by the lyric: 'I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me.' I felt so betrayed because she had been a winner of child beauty pageants (information I had learned from teen magazines), and I was so upset she would undermine an otherwise good message with LIES. When my friends were making lip-sync videos to later Selena Gomes & the Scene bops, I refused to participate out of principle. Anyway, I eventually realized she didn't write that lyric and I got diagnosed with autism." "Jon Bernthal not liking naps." "Sabrina Carpenter. Not because of any of her current controversies, but when she first started blowing up, the Spotify algorithm kept shoving her songs down my throat no matter what playlist I had on. I ended up having to block her artist profile and I'm still annoyed to this day and refuse to listen to her out of spite." "Rosamund Pike because she never blinks in anything. It's so unsettling. You know who else blinks infrequently? Sociopaths. I'm convinced she must be one, even though she always picks roles and projects that I think are great." "U2 and the Songs of Innocence debacle. I have had such a hatred for them ever since lol." "I have one sided beef with Dakota Johnson ever since she said she lied about loving limes. I soon realized that she just lies all the time for fun. I hate her lol." "I cannot, for the life of me, listen to any Dominic Fike song since that awfully long performance on Euphoria." "I stopped listening to Iggy Azalea's music after she said that people who let their dogs sleep in their bed are gross. LOL." "7 year old me had a grudge against Justin Bieber bc I thought he was stealing the JB initials from the Jonas Brothers. I refused to listen to him. 😭" "Taylor Swift could've been a saint from the moment she first picked up a microphone and I still wouldn't like her because of how 'Love Story' mistold Romeo and Juliet lol." "I've held a grudge against Josh Hutcherson since I was 4 years old. The original reason was that I didn't like how he treated his brother in Zathura, but other equally stupid reasons have been added over the years, mainly that Bridge to Teribithia traumatized me and was nothing like the trailer made it seem." "Austin Butler after he wouldn't shut up about all the ways he morphed into Elvis, and that god awful accent 💀 The desperation for an Oscar was such an ick for me." "Norman Reedus because when I was a hardcore Rick Grimes stan, I was always finding stupid a** Daryl Dixon merch everywhere, but not nearly enough Rick." "I hate Jason Mraz not only because his music is cringey and bad but mainly because he's never wearing any damn shoes!! I must be subjected to his music AND his feet? Shameful." "Ryan Reynolds. I just didn't like that they kept pedaling him as being the hottest actor when he is definitely not." "I never really found George Clooney that attractive and I'm pretty meh on him as an actor. Like he's fine, I liked Ocean's 11. I accepted that other people found him good-looking. Then we watched O Brother Where Art Thou in English class. Specifically in that movie, he looks and acts so similarly to my hillbilly father (who I did not get along with) that I can never find him attractive. He's not. He looks like my dad. He doesn't actually look like my dad, but he did and I cannot accept that he may be attractive to people." "Jamie Oliver pisses me the fuck off because of how he lies to our faces about oil use. He'll say 'you need just a little bit' before pouring half the bottle in. Shut up Jamie." "Jennifer Lawrence tripping the second time." "Eliza Dushku and a college friend of mine both auditioned for an acting job (I have no idea what it was), and Eliza Dushku got it. Keep in mind, this happened an entire decade before I met this girl. When she told us about it, though, my whole friend group resolved to disliking Eliza Dushku forever in a show of solidarity. Then Bring It On came out, and I crumpled. I never told them, though." "I saw someone once post that 'Emma Stone looks like a Bitmoji' — I can't unsee it and for some reason this made my brain dislike her?" "Lorde shushing people at her concert." "John Malkovich because of his speaking cadence." "Jordin Sparks because my name is Jordan and I hated the way she spelt her name. 😅" The internet is a weird place — and sometimes, it takes very little for us to ditch a celebrity. What's the most unserious reason you've ever unfollowed someone famous? Tell us in the comments!

Taylor Lautner Publicly Defended Selena Gomez After Her SAG Awards Appearance Sadly Resulted In Disgusting Discourse Around Her Weight
Taylor Lautner has taken to social media to chime in on an ongoing conversation surrounding speculation about Selena Gomez's weight. In case you didn't know, Taylor and Selena dated briefly back in 2009, when Taylor was filming Twilight: New Moon, and Selena was filming Ramona and Beezus. Speaking to Seventeen back then, Selena called their fling 'fun,' but confirmed that the two split because of media attention, saying, 'I knew he had paparazzi following him and I had paparazzi following me. People were getting a little crazy about us.' Following her recent appearance at the SAG Awards, Selena — who is now happily engaged to Benny Blanco — has sadly been the subject of a ton of online scrutiny around her weight. On Feb. 24, Glamour published an opinion piece titled, 'It's Okay to Feel Hurt When Celebrities Lose Weight—but Let's Unpack It,' with the title image being of Selena. The article stated that criticism of celebrities' weight loss was ultimately contributing to the unfair judgment of people without accounting for what may or may not be going on in their lives. The writer, Alex Light, said, 'If we want body neutrality—which I know I do!—we must give women the freedom to make decisions about their bodies without judgment.' The following day, The View co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin agreed with the article's statements about celebrities' boundaries and defended Selena against the speculation occurring. 'Why look to a complete stranger for inspiration?' asked Sunny. 'You don't know what's going on in that person's life. Selena Gomez suffers from lupus, so weight is a part of that condition. And so she may have lost this weight for her health condition.' 'And it's none of your business!' Whoopi added enthusiastically, before continuing on to explain that celebrities' choices were nobody's decision but their own. And yesterday, Selena's ex Taylor posted a statement on Instagram echoing the sentiment. Sharing a side-by-side photoset of Selena, he wrote a lengthy message asking people to be 'a little bit nicer.' Frazer Harrison / Getty Images, Frazer Harrison / WireImage The images Taylor shared showed Selena in 2024 and 2025, alongside contrasting — but equally disgusting — comments made about her weight in either photo. One comment read, 'Really not to be mean, but it's tjme for Ozempic,' while another from a year later said, 'She looked better thicc.' Under the images, Taylor wrote, 'It's a cruel world full of hate out there. You can never please everyone nor should you have to. In my experience it doesn't make the words sting less, it just refocuses you onto what matters.' He continued, saying, 'And it sure isn't the shape, color, or appearance of your body. Daily reminder to all of us to not forget how beautiful you are inside and out.' He then reminded people to 'be a little bit nicer,' and added the 2011 Selena Gomez & The Scene song 'Who Says' to the post, which fans will remember was all about loving yourself for who you are. Fans online have since called Taylor a 'green flag,' with one person saying that, 'This is the kind of ex that Selena deserves.' Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.
