It may please Taylena fans to know the friendship is still thriving, after all this time. Selena Gomez is not just any member of the Taylor Swift squad, she’s a real one. The Only Murders in the Building actor revealed that the ‘All Too Well’ singer is the only person she considers a friend among celebrities.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, the founder of makeup brand Rare Beauty revealed that she struggles to make friends in Hollywood. “I never fit in with a cool group of girls that were celebrities. My only friend in the industry really is Taylor [Swift],” she said.

Fans have kept track of Taylena for years, rooting for their friendship. Gomez even appeared in the Midnights singer’s ‘Bad Blood’ music video alongside Hailee Steinfeld, Gigi Hadid, Zendaya, Ellen Pompeo, Cara Delevingne and more.

The Wizards of Waverly Place actor released her documentary My Mind & Me on Friday and Swift reposted her Instagram video promoting the film and said, “So proud of you Selena Gomez. Love you forever.”

My Mind & Me is a documentation of Gomez’s struggle with her mental health. She described the manic highs and depressive lows she suffered through before she had identified her bipolar disorder. Raw and honest, she admitted that she has been to four mental facilities and has gone through psychosis that made her seem unrecognisable to her friends. Even though she has grown and her setbacks don’t weigh down on her as they used to, she knows that mental health is an ongoing battle.

The ‘Lose You to Love Me’ singer is off social media. Besides TikTok, she deleted other apps long ago and handed over the passwords to her assistant, who posts photos and messages Gomez provides.

Gomez also talked about the struggles she has had with coming to terms with the life she has. Having expected to get married by 25, the 30-year-old was devastated to be nowhere near that. She found a way to feel celebrate herself though and made her 30th birthday special. “I thought I would be married by now, so I threw myself a wedding,” she said.

She invited people who had been important parts of her twenties, whether she was still close to them or not. The party was at a private home in Malibu, the decor including red roses and candlelight. There was dancing, Gomez wore a pink Versace outfit. The guest list included singer Miley Cyrus, Gomez’s little sister Gracie, her kidney donor and close friend Francia Raísa, singers Camila Cabello, Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo, and a Barney cake. “We had lovely drinks, and it was beautiful, and then my friend Cara [Delevingne] comes in and brings strippers,” she said, laughing. “So I would like to say it was a mixture of sophisticated and hysterical.”
