They say that looking good is the best revenge, and that certainly seemed to be the case for newly single Selena Gomez on Wednesday.
The actress and singer channelled one of TV’s most powerful female characters in the form of Scandal’s Olivia Pope to film an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Selena caused jaws to drop as she arrived at the Los Angeles studio in a navy dress that was strapless with a low-scooping neckline to showcase her cleavage.

The daring frock also featured a slit all the way up one side, leaving the 22-year-old’s legs on show, and had a lace top and pencil skirt.
Selena cinched the dress in at her tiny waist with a chunky black belt and wore matching sheer court shoes with delicate bow detail.
The former Disney star posted a photo of the look on her Instagram page where she revealed she got her inspiration from the character made famous by Kerry Washington.

Selena recently split from on/off boyfriend Justin Bieber once again, and talked about finding herself in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres on Monday.
The Spring Breakers star – who has posted a series of emotional Instagrams in recent days – told the chat show host, ‘They’re all like “be yourself, be yourself” and I’m still trying to figure out who that is.’
She added: ‘So, I know I’m not perfect, but I know I have a lot of people that support me and love me. I don’t know, I don’t want to let anyone down. So I just try to be the best I can be. It’s awkward being 20. In our 20s.’
