There was a lot happening as she emerged from the car, surrounded by security and a small group of assistants.

The hardworking Texan, aged 27, recently spent a week in the city promoting her new series Only Murders In The Building alongside comedy legends Martin Short and Steve Martin. In an interview with People magazine, she praised her co-stars for making her feel like part of a trio and described them as incredibly humble and kind. She found their perspectives on life to be unique and absorbing, especially when discussing the industry’s past.

Selena stars in the 10-episode mystery-comedy show as Mabel Mora, one of three true crime-obsessed neighbors investigating a suspicious death in an upscale Manhattan apartment. Despite her previous roles on the big screen, her return to television with this series marks a significant milestone in her career. During her time in Manhattan, she turned heads in stunning outfits, including an orange dress worn for a late-night show appearance, exuding the confidence of a supermodel.


Dressed in black: On another occasion, she was spotted wearing a sleek black leather dress, and she also rocked a black mini dress with a matching cardigan. Talking about the early success of the new show, she excitedly mentioned receiving a perfect score of 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes from a friend, and it made her ecstatic. She mentioned how she typically relies on her instincts when it comes to judging the quality of her work, whether it’s music or acting, so she was thrilled that people were enjoying it. As an executive producer on the project, along with her co-stars, she humbly admitted that she isn’t sure if she can classify herself as a ‘good actor’. She shared that she simply focuses on doing her job to the best of her ability and hopes to measure up to the talent around her. Reflecting on her growth from the first episode to the finale, she even joked about wanting to redo the first episode because she felt she had improved significantly.

In additional news, she mentioned this week that she is part of a group email thread with Short and Martin. The 29-year-old actress is working with the two seasoned actors in the new Hulu series Only Murders in the Building, and she has enjoyed learning from them about the past Hollywood scene. Short even complimented Gomez, calling her ‘charming’. Despite never having met the young actress before, the 71-year-old actor appreciated working with her. He fondly recalled their first meeting in the makeup chair, where he was immediately struck by her beauty and engaging personality. Martin also shared that filming the series was effortless, thanks to the good chemistry among the cast. In a recent interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Martin jokingly remarked that things could have been difficult if he didn’t get along with his co-stars, including Gomez.

She has a lot of respect for comedians, mentioning to PEOPLE magazine that they always make her feel like part of the gang. She thinks they’re amazing, saying they’re very down-to-earth and have a unique perspective on life. Reflecting on their conversation, Selena responded with a chuckle, saying she’s grateful not to be one of them. On another note, Selena recently shared that exercising is crucial for her mental well-being. Even though she feels a bit miserable during workouts, she understands its importance in her beauty routine and, most importantly, its positive impact on her mental health.

Selena Gomez, a favorite of Vogue, recently promoted her rare Beauty line and shared some of her beauty secrets in a video. She emphasized the importance of working out as a crucial part of her beauty routine, as it not only benefits her physically but also helps her mentally by keeping her in a positive headspace.

As she discussed the evolution of her beauty regimen over the years, Selena revealed that she now feels “sexier” when wearing less makeup. In her younger days, she enjoyed experimenting with intense colors and heavy foundation, finding it fun and exciting. However, as she has matured, she has realized that less is more and that she feels more confident and attractive without a heavy makeup look.

Selena concluded by emphasizing that true beauty comes from within and that one does not need a lot of makeup to look beautiful – it is about embracing and enhancing one’s natural features.
