After Selena Gomez dirty danced with her Emilia Pérez costar Edgar Ramírez at a Sabrina Carpenter concert, her fans went into a full tailspin trying to figure out if she’d crossed a line, broken up with Benny Blanco, or intentionally stirred the pot.
The truth, it turns out, is neither as exciting nor salacious as all that. Girl just likes to boogie.
Shortly after the video of Gomez and Ramírez dancing together was posted, and then deleted, by Gomez’s BFF Connar Franklin, the actor herself posted, and then deleted, an Instagram Story of herself with Ramírez at a different event, writing, “omg how dare I dance with my bestie,” and adding a “shocked face” emoji. Blessedly, BuzzFeed captured a screengrab of the post, so you can see the evidence here.
And uh, that’s all, folks! Sel and Ed are friends who like to dance, she’s still with Benny Blanco, all is well in the land of Gomez. Just a month ago, she was singing Blanco’s praises to Vanity Fair, telling the mag, “I’ve never been loved this way.”
“He’s just been a light. A complete light in my life,” she added. “He’s my best friend. I love telling him everything.” Well, her bestie besides Ramírez. “Best friend” isn’t a person, it’s a tier.
In a similar mushy photo dump for Blanco’s birthday in March, Selena Gomez wrote in the caption, “Your emotional endurance, positive disposition, unbelievable talent (that blows me away), undeniable humor and loving, kind heart absolutely kill me. I love you.”
This ain’t the town from Footloose; dancing is neither a sin nor a crime. But you know what is really annoying? People posting, then immediately deleting things. You’re making my job harder. My job wasn’t that hard to start, so it’s okay, but still, everyone should know it doesn’t stop the story from getting out there. The internet is forever.
