Selena Gomez Compliments Justin Bieber, Teen Girls on Twitter Lose Their Goddamn Minds
Though the on again/off again celebrity couple known as “Jelena” has been officially off now for a few months, teenage girls on Twitter still hold on to the hope that Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez’s relationship will rise out of the ashes like a bleached-haired phoenix. During an appearance on Sirius XM’s Morning Mashup, Gomez did nothing to temper that hope by paying her ex the mildest of compliments. When asked about Ariana Grande’s One Love Manchester benefit, Gomez had this to say:
“It was beautiful,” she said. “I thought everyone did such a beautiful job. It was so gorgeous. I love how she [Ariana] ended it. I thought Justin did great. It was really beautiful.”
Seems pretty innocent, right? Well, that comment inspired the following tweets:

Sadly, Gomez promptly punctured holes in these poor teen girls’ dreams later on in the interview when she gushed about how much she enjoys being on tour with her current squeeze, The Weeknd:
“I love being supportive, like I love just being there and just kind of having somebody’s back,” she said. “It feels good. I haven’t had that feeling in a while.”
Sorry, Jelena stans. Your day will come in good time (no it won’t, but whatever). In the meantime, here’s Selena’s latest single, “Bad Liar.”
