Demi Lovato's Sweet Reaction to Selena Gomez’s Engagement!
Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato: A Tale of Two Starlets
In a move that's got us buzzing, Selena Gomez gave a shout-out to her former Disney darling pal Demi Lovato on Therapuss' podcast. But what caught our attention was the subtle shade thrown in the process. During an episode of Jake Shane's podcast two months ago, Selena mentioned it was "good to see" childhood colleagues like Demi still killing it in the entertainment industry.
But little did we know, this throwaway comment would spark a major reaction from Demi herself! On Tuesday's episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Demi got candid about hearing the clips and shared her thoughts on Selena's statement. "It was really, really sweet," she gushed, adding that she couldn't be happier for her former co-star and her fiancé Benny Blanco.
We can't help but wonder if there's more to this friendship than meets the eye. After all, these two Disney darlings have been through thick and thin together - from their early days as childhood stars on Barney & Friends to their respective rise to fame. But what about the drama that went down behind the scenes? We're talking about the infamous Jonas brothers romances (yes, both Selena and Demi dated Nick and Joe at different points in time!).
Fast-forward to today, and it's clear these two have come a long way since their Disney days. Selena is set to tie the knot with Benny Blanco soon, with an intimate ceremony reportedly planned for a private residence in Montecito, California. But here's the tea: sources close to the couple reveal that Selena has refused to convert to his Jewish faith - and we can't help but wonder if this will cause tension down the line.
Demi Lovato, on the other hand, is busy promoting her ninth studio album It's Not That Deep, set to drop on October 24. The album comes hot on the heels of her critically-acclaimed drama Tow, where she takes on a dramatic acting role as Nova. But what about her personal life? We know Demi recently tied the knot with backup singer Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes in a beautiful ceremony at the Bellosguardo Estate in Santa Barbara, California.
But let's get to the juicy part - Demi's weight loss journey! The singer has been open about her struggles with body image and has since undergone an incredible 50lb transformation. We're talking about a full-on transformation, folks - from a size 16 to a svelte size 6 in just a matter of months. And we can't help but wonder if this dramatic weight loss was facilitated by her rumored use of the trendy GLP-1 agonist drug Ozempic.
As for Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato's friendship, it seems like these two are more than just acquaintances - they're genuine friends who genuinely care about each other. And let's be real, we're all rooting for them to maintain this unlikely friendship amidst the cutthroat world of Hollywood.
The Lowdown on Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco
But what do we know about Selena's fiancé Benny Blanco? Sources close to the couple reveal that he popped the question with an eight-carat marquise diamond engagement ring in December 2023, after a whirlwind romance of just 18 months. But here's the twist - this isn't their first rodeo together! The two have been working together for years, with Benny Blanco even producing Selena's second studio album Revival back in 2015.
And speaking of music, we know that Selena and Benny have collaborated on a brand new album called I Said I Love You First. Demi Lovato has given it the seal of approval, gushing about the record and even sharing her favorite song - Bluest Flame.
Demi Lovato's Drama Filled Past
But what about Demi Lovato's personal life? We know that she met her current husband Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes back in January 2022 while recording her eighth studio album Holy Fvck. And in a major move, the two even got matching tattoos of their track - 4 Ever 4 Me - which was written especially about him.
Demi has been open about her struggles with addiction and body image, but it seems like she's found love and happiness with Jutes. The couple tied the knot in May at the Bellosguardo Estate in Santa Barbara, California, surrounded by 135 of their closest friends and family members.
