Get ready for a juicy revelation! Selena Gomez has just dropped a bombshell, confirming that Taylor Swift's song "Dorothea" is all about her! But here's where it gets controversial...
In a recent podcast appearance with her husband and music producer Benny Blanco, Gomez opened up about her long-standing friendship with Swift and their musical connection. She revealed that "Dorothea" is one of Swift's songs inspired by her own life experiences. Gomez shared, "'Dorothea' is about me. I feel like a lot of huge moments, from relationships to family, love, and hate, we were figuring it out together. We've always seen each other the same way. When I listen to it, I'm impressed by how eloquently it's expressed."
Swift fans have been speculating about this for a while, given the song's pointed lyrics, which seem to reference Gomez's early life and her mom's involvement in beauty pageants. But Swift herself has remained tight-lipped about the song's subject, only stating that Evermore, the "sister album" to Folklore, consists of both imaginary and real-life tales.
And this is the part most people miss... Gomez also revealed that Swift wrote an unreleased song called "Family" over a decade ago, which touched on their friendship. She explained, "It's about me having these amazing dreams of being in movies, but Swift notes that she still sees me in every crowd."
Gomez added, "Her part of the song talks about how she believes in my stupid dreams, like playing stadiums. Now, when I listen to those songs, both our dreams have come true. It's so sweet that back then, she wrote a song about our story."
Reflecting on their 17-year friendship, Gomez shared, "It's unbelievable to have experienced multiple heartbreaks, love stories, and fun life moments together. The coolest part? We both got engaged around the same time!"
To top it off, Gomez revealed that Swift gifted her a painting for her 30th birthday. Aww!
