One of Hollywood’s most iconic female friendships is undoubtedly the bond between singers Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift.
On March 27, 2025, during a preview clip of her upcoming interview with iHeartRadio, uploaded on X, Selena offered rare insights into her decades-long yet largely private friendship with Taylor.
Opening up about their creative dynamic, Gomez revealed that Swift is always the first to hear her new music before it’s released, and she doesn’t hold back her opinions. She shared,
“She definitely will say that one’s okay. I think that one’s good. It’s just very helpful. I love people who are honest [like that]. I value her opinion so much, because she’s super honest. I like to see what she thinks”.
Reflecting on a deeply emotional moment in 2019, Selena recalled playing her heartfelt ballad Lose You to Love Me for Taylor and her mother, Andrea Swift, ahead of its release. Their reaction left a lasting impact. She shared,
“When I played her Lose You to Love Me, right before it came out, she and her amazing mom started to cry and then I started crying. You know, it’s very sweet”.
