Wednesday night saw Selena Gomez return to the red carpet after a week full of controversy.
The star of The Only Murders in the Building celebrated the Beverly Hills debut of her brand Rare Beauty’s newest line, the Find Comfort Body Collection.
She was wearing a stylish white suit with a coat slung over her shoulders, and she seemed happy as she spoke with the media and fans about the new launch.
The occasion takes place four days after the celebrity made waves for her Golden Globes gossip session, during which admirers accused her of discussing Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner.
Selena assured fans that she was correcting the record and wasn’t criticizing the pair before announcing that she was withdrawing from the spotlight “for a while” and making a social media hiatus.
The gap lasted for a full day because Selena used her Stories on Wednesday to advertise a cooking video featuring 51-year-old chef Gordon Ramsay.
Selena had declared her social media hiatus the night before. She posted a video of her 35-year-old boyfriend Benny Blanco playing with two small children in addition to her statement to fans, “I’m off social for a while. I’m focusing on what really matters.”
After Selena’s debriefing with friends Keleigh Sperry and Taylor Swift at Sunday’s Golden Globes was captured on camera, the video went viral.
As viewers struggled to lip-read the exchange, they concluded that Selena was telling her girlfriends about an uncomfortable encounter she had with Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, the current couple of the moment.
Film taken from their table captured Selena, 31, Taylor, 34, and Miles Teller’s wife Keleigh engaging in a lively conversation. Selena began talking passionately, surprising both Taylor and Keleigh. Keleigh then asked, “With Timothee?” as Selena nodded.
After that, Taylor allegedly whispered in Selena’s ear, to which the actress from Only Murders in the Building responded, “I tried, I couldn’t, it’ll upset em.”
As Selena responded in the E! News post’s comment section on Monday regarding the event, she refuted any mention of Kylie and Timothee.
‘during tea time, we’d love to know if Selena Gomez was truly conversing about Kylie Jenner & Timothée Chalamet during this year’s #GoldenGlobes,’ the caption reads.
“Noooooo, I told Taylor about two of my friends who hooked up,” Selena shot back. Not that anyone is interested in that.
