The bond between Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez

Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez have reportedly shared a close bond for more than one and a half decades. The contemporary pop stars first met in 2008 on a double date with the brothers Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas, respectively. While they soon parted ways with their dates, they formed a strong bond with each other.



 

During a 2017 radio interview, Gomez recalled, "We actually dated the Jonas Brothers together! It was hysterical. It was amazing, because (Taylor) was the girl with the big curly hair and all the bracelets and the cowboy boots. And I was definitely up-and-coming, and we just clicked.”

The duo has since supported each other as their careers reached new heights and have slammed any rumors of feud along the way.

Gomez told Rolling Stone in 2022, "I never fit in with a cool group of girls that were celebrities. My only friend in the industry really is Taylor, so I remember feeling like I didn’t belong. I felt the presence of everyone around me living full lives. I had this position, and I was really happy, but … was I? Do these materialistic things make me happy? I just didn’t like who I was, because I didn’t know who I was.”
