Taylor Swift + Selena Gomez Have The Most Beautiful Friendship

When you think friendship goals, I hope you think of Taylena! Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez have been friends for 12, almost 13 years. Which is monumental since it’s Swift’s favorite number. Gomez and Swift first found each other back when the Jonas Brother‘s were still a thing! Although many things have changed over the years, hairstyles, homes, boyfriends, one thing has never fallen apart, their friendship!

Like tradition would have it, Swift brought Selena out to be a special guest on her Reputation Stadium Tour, like she has each tour! They performed Gomez’s song “Hands To Myself” which  is a favorite of Taylor’s.

Swift shared a sweet picture of the two with the caption:

“To the person I could call at any time of day, who has been there no matter what… you absolutely KILLED IT tonight and everyone was so excited to see you. I love you, and 60,000 people at the Rose Bowl loved you too.”

Gomez echoed the sentiments, sharing a picture of the two backstage with the caption:

“I’m grateful for those I surround myself with. And this woman right here happens to be one of my favorites. Love our tradition and I love you.”

Not only did they have an electrifying performance, but Gomez made a surprise speech that even caught Swift off guard. She chokes up as she shares how much Swift and their friendship means and thanking everyone for supporting her because she is the kindest of humans.

WATCH SELENA’S HEARTWARMING SPEECH TO TAYLOR SWIFT

“I have to say thank you to my best friend of about 12 years, almost 13, she’s been one of my best friends, because this person has never ever judged a single decision I’ve made, she has always met me where I’ve been, she has encouraged me when I’ve had nothing to be encouraged about, and I don’t know if I would be as strong as I am if I didn’t have you and your family, because you’ve changed my life. But honestly, thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting someone that I know is the most beautiful, strong, independent woman I’ve ever met, so thank you as her best friend.”

Swift tried to hug her during it, but Gomez wasn’t finished and swatted her away so she could continue gushing about her! Can you say friendship goals?

Shawn Mendes Tears Up Taylor Swift’s Reputation – Night 1 of Rep Tour Pasadena!

We are getting serious 1989 vibes as Taylor Swift‘s first special guest on her Reputation Stadium Tour  was Shawn Mendes who opened for her during the 1989 World Tour. Swift shared some behind the scenes footage of their rehearsal, along with a picture and a video from the actual performance!

Mendes is the first special guest of the Reputation Stadium Tour and coincidentally the song they performed “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back” also has the word reputation in it!

You take me places that tear up my reputation
Manipulate my decisions
Baby, there’s nothing holdin’ me back

This was the third stop on Swift’s “Baby Tour” as she called it and she recalled that it was her 40th show in Southern California. Her first show was to a crowd of about 43 and now she is playing to a crowd of about 60,000! It was Swift’s first time playing the Rose Bowl and also her first time ever being at the Rose Bowl, she told the crowd she definitely understood the allure!

Wouldn’t it be great if every special guest has a song with the word “reputation” in it? Do you think there will be a theme? As far as Swift not having a special guest at the other two shows, we think the show is so big and so great it doesn’t need special guests, and there definitely shouldn’t be one there night 1! Everyone should just experience the magic of the show on it’s own! Also, LA is a big city so there isn’t always going to be a guest in every city, but that’s okay because Swift puts on an amazing show compelete with fireworks!
