Just when fans thought Selena Gomez had waded too deep into the movie scene to keep up her music legacy, she surprised everyone by showing up at the hottest concert in town for Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’ tour in New York with her pals Ariel Taylor and Connar Franklin Carpenter, who even dropped a TikTok that went from a cheeky tease to a celebrity crisis, with breakup rumors about Gomez and Benny Blanco spiraling out of control.
Thankfully, Franklin Carpenter swooped in the comment section to clarify that when she said “single,” she was just talking about being unmarried. “When you’re married at the Sabrina Carpenter show but your friends are single,” was the caption Gomez’s friend used while flaunting her shiny bling. Little did they know that the breakup rumors were about to crash the party for Gomez, even though there was no mention of Benny Blanco.
The rumor mill, however, kicked into high gear, with that one post multiplying faster than a chemical reaction, finding a cozy spot in every gossip thread. While Gomez’s friend tried to slow down the rumor train, Gomez was not about to sit on the sidelines.
