Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift are not just superstar musicians — they’re also avid fans of Bravo’s reality TV. In a recent cover story interview on September 9, Gomez, 32, opened up about her close friendship with the “Fortnight” singer, 34, revealing that the pair often “compare notes” on Vanderpump Rules.
Gomez shared that while she occasionally seeks Swift’s advice on navigating the music industry or handling friendships in the public eye, most of their conversations revolve around the same things regular friends gossip about — enjoying reality TV and sharing lighthearted moments together.
“She’s really like a big sister to me,” Selena Gomez said about her close bond with 14-time Grammy winner Taylor Swift. In her recent Vanity Fair interview, the Fetish singer opened up about their friendship, sharing that they often dive into the latest Vanderpump Rules drama.
Gomez revealed that they frequently chat about the reality show’s most recent episodes. “I’m watching The Valley now,” the Single Soon artist said, referring to the spinoff series. “I’ve seen every episode of Vanderpump, so I don’t care if it’s bad!”
In another part of the interview, Gomez disclosed that she doesn’t have immediate plans to release new music, aside from a few tracks recorded for her upcoming film Emilia Pérez. The songs were written by French singer Camille and composer Clément Ducol.
“I don’t know if I’m ready, you know?” Gomez admitted. “It’s a vulnerable space. Acting has always been my first love. Music started as a hobby that spiraled out of control.”
Despite this, she reassured fans that music remains a core part of her identity. “I’m not going anywhere,” Gomez said. “I’m just not ready yet.”
Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift first crossed paths in 2008, when both were dating members of the Jonas Brothers. Gomez was linked to Nick Jonas, while Swift was seeing Joe Jonas. What started as a casual connection blossomed into a strong friendship.
Over the years, the pop stars have often offered fans glimpses of their bond, from cheering each other on at award shows to celebrating major life milestones together. They’ve even collaborated on several occasions, solidifying their friendship on both a personal and professional level.
Gomez has joined Swift on stage during various tours and also made a cameo in Swift’s iconic “Bad Blood” music video, further showcasing their close connection in the spotlight.
