Here’s a photo of Selena Gomez with her then-bestie Taylor Swift in 2008. Taylor and Selena are still very good friends, although they sometimes break up when Selena gets back with Justin Bieber. Swaggy and Selena have managed an extended public break. We haven’t seen them together in months. I wouldn’t put it past them to try again one day. Selena may still consider Bieber to be her boyfriend — according to witnesses at Taylor Swift’s 25th birthday party. This is the same shindig attended by Jay-Z and Beyonce. It was a huge party with tons of celebrities at Swifty’s NYC penthouse. Selena was reportedly crying out on the terrace. Us Weekly says she was shouting and throwing a royal fit over missing Swaggy:
There’s always one! Selena Gomez got emotional about Justin Bieber at Taylor Swift’s star-studded birthday bash at her Tribeca apartment on Friday, Dec. 13, a source reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.
While fellow partygoers like Beyonce and Jay Z enjoyed beers, pizza, and sushi and mingled with pals like Justin Timberlake, Gomez, who has dated Bieber on and off for three years now, was reportedly getting emotional over the “Boyfriend” singer.
“She shouted, ‘No one understands me! My boyfriend doesn’t even understand me,” an insider tells Us, adding that bystanders — including guest Sam Smith — “just stared [at her].”
Aside from the dramatic scene, which took place on the upper terrace, the rest of the party was having a “total blast,” another source tells Us.
Other guests at the bash, which was complete with a karaoke machine and kicked off after Swift’s performance at Z100’s Jingle Ball, included Swift’s BFF Karlie Kloss, Kelly Osbourne, 5 Seconds of Summer, HAIM, Nick Jonas and Olivia Culpo, Charli XCX, Chrissy Teigen, Shawn Mendes, Ansel Elgort, and Jaime King.

Ugh, I’m embarrassed for Selena, especially since she’s hung up on such a useless dude. So much drama. She made a huge fuss on Taylor’s night. No one knew how to respond to her. Do you think Selena was drunk? When I was in my early 20s, I used to get weepy any time gin entered the picture. (Gin is no longer in my repertoire.) But I think this is standard drama queen stuff rather than a simple case of Selena getting sloppy drunk and acting out of character. She’s simply addicted to the Biebs. He keeps bragging about being single, you know. I hope she gets it together. Another rehab stint or some counseling could help.

I wonder how ThirsTay reprimanded her royal subject for ruining her magical birthday ball?
Bedhead, gin is the devil. Oy.
Mmm gin martinis, up*. #firstlove
*no crying aloud.
Vodka. Dirty*.
*no Swaggy tears aloud.
So she should have wept softly?
I’ll see your dirty martini and raise you a boilermaker.
*tosses Kidoo a kleenex*
I shall take that boilermaker and share some Hunnam homemade ice cream. I made it on his abs.
Mmm, yes. One before dinner on date night, then a glass of wine with dinner…hoo boy. Enough said.
I’m a twist girl primarily (even though I know how disgusting lemon rinds are as far as chemicals sealed in by wax), but I occasionally like a couple of big olives, too.
Give me tequila on the rocks

Selena slept over so Taylor was probably much more concerned with her friend’s well-being than some lame party.
Your first love is hard to shake off.
So true Loopy. It’s tough to see that when you’re in it, but we all come to the same conclusion in time.
very true.
agreed. I was in a rocky relationship for a couple years in my early 20s like her. i was hung on him for years afterward. he was so beiber esque too. i look back and think ‘ugh wtf was wrong with me’
It’s true, I was that girl for a long time. Drinking only made it worse.
Agree, I think the reason it is harder for her is that he is so accessible. I mean my high school sweetheart wasn’t once we graduated. I went away to college, he went away to party and do nothing with his life. We were no longer in the same circle.
Tell me about it. I ended up crying over my first love in the loo of a night club. Like heart-wrenching sobs kind of crying. I still feel sad when I think back to how miserable I felt then. In a few years time, she’ll be able to look back at this terrible time in her life with humour and laughter.
I feel for her, but really, if she’s not able to attend a party without crying, I think she should just skip it and do other things until she can handle her emotions. If this is all true, over little Biebs, it’s hard to believe, but she will get over it in time and move on and all of this will one day be behind her. Personally, I think it’s way worse for her to cry in front of a party crowd. It’s going to hurt her for a while, but she would be better off by just trying to show some self confidence.
Selena can do much better than Biebs. This is not meant to start any rumours, but does anyone else think that Selena and Taylor would make a great couple? They might be good for each other
What the hell?
hahahaha agreed. may be throw in a little karli kloss
I’m pretty sure Taylor is a lesbian. Good for her!
I can definitely see this happening, Selena is so torn up over Bieber, you just wanna shake some sense into her. In the words of Brenda Meeks: “she don’t love herself”.
Amen. I know this is somewhat common behaviour (drama) for girls in their late teens and early 20’s but it is so so embarrassing for Selena.
I feel bad for Taylor- I mean, I get that heartbreak is hard and horrible(we have all been there) but don’t make your best friend’s party all about you- especially when she hates your douchebag ex. Leave so your friend doesn’t have to spend her night worrying about you.
I might be short on compassion/harsh because I was the girl who never wanted to cause a scene so if I ran into an ex or was too drunk and was freaking out, I would cry in a bathroom stall, slap some cold water on my face, make excuses, say goodbye and leave the scene.
I’m going with drunk AND a drama queen.
Why are you hung up on the little douche, Selena? Seriously… open your eyes and see him for the little dweeb that he is.
Maybe she saw a pic of his new bleach blonde hair and freaked out lol.
That is so funny!
She needs to meet someone new that sweeps her off her feet. That is the only thing that will get her over The Beibs.
the good thing about having been in love and in a relationship with Beiber is that you are guaranteed to do better.
Exactly. She can only trade up.
The Heart Wants Swaggy: The Album.
Oh dear. It’s not a party until someone starts crying how the world is so unfair and no one understands them.
I use to think she was so grounded and had a successful career ahead of her. I guess most of us get hung up on guys we now look back on and wonder what were we thinking.
She should have taken a page out of Taylor’s book, and written a song about it, here are some suggestions: “Diaper Dom, you need a change”. “Terror tyke tears” “Car Seat Carouser” “You peed in a bucket, now go suck it” “You think you’re a hard felon, but you look like Ellen”
I love it. Kiddo is the Andrew Lloyd Webber of CB.
Hey you’re good at that!
She could have done that if she wrote songs, but she doesn’t, does she?
Abot, I am the Swiftkick Mitchell.
“You peed in a bucket, now go suck it”
hahahahahhaahahah
Tears. I love you, KidoO.
Oh god kiddo, i am so glad i just put my coffee down, or i would need a new computer. dying laughing…….
“You think you’re a hard felon, but you look like Ellen”. Ding, ding, you’re a winner! Lol!
That would be a great album.
Ahaha writing a blind gossip song is much better move than being the drunk drama queen at a party.
OMG i love it
Is the “Bieb peen” that good that she’s throwing public fits over it? If I were Taylor, I could no longer be friends with Selena. She seems emotionally unstable and fragile. Taylor had a great 2014 and will probably have a better 2015. That kind of nonsense has no place in Tay-Tay’s life.
I doubt it’s that good, she likely doesn’t have a comparison yet (or not much of one). She’ll learn (if she’s lucky ;-). )
Don’t they say you stop maturing at the age you become famous? Wasn’t she, like what, 12? Makes sense.
I think a lot of child stars become stunted because they have been insulated from real world. Everything is done for them, they’re placed on a pedestal and when that’s no longer the case, the don’t know what to do. Jmo
What if you never become famous? Do you end up like the Face of Boe?
I actually have to give Taylor credit that she hasn’t written Selena off at this point. It’s really easy to give up on a friend over this kind of behavior, though I do wonder how much longer she’s going to deal with the behavior.
Given her rehab history, I suspect the Bieber relationship is tied up in a much larger issuue, part of that addiction to toxic situations. She really does need a therapist or something to help her work through this, though whether she can find it in her to be mature enough to do that is something else. More out of what I get out of cases like Gomez is bafflement that anybody would put their kids into showbusiness when we see time and time again how damaging it is as they get older.
I should never read “Bieb peen” before breakfast…..
I’m hung up on “beers, pizza, and sushi.” Do people really eat at these parties? I’m trying to imagine Bey chowing down on pizza publicly.
Knife and fork only.
What an immature, spoiled brat. Save it for when it’s NOT someone else’s birthday party. How inappropriate. I know plenty of teenagers who know better than to pull a stunt like that.
The heart wants what it wants okay?? *sarcasm* 😉
Seriously. Your friend’s birthday party is not about your stupid boy drama. Lock it up. And now everyone – including Bieber – knows Selena had a hissy fit over a douchebag. I would be so embarrassed (and I say this as someone who shed plenty of beer tears over dudes in my early 20s).
I’m sure Taylor has a room for that.
Yes, put her in the Cry Room—just like at church.
LOL
Someday she’ll look back on this and slam her face into a brick wall… Time wounds all heels, right?
I had a melt down after my first major breakup. It wasn’t at a friends party, but it was while we were out. Sometimes it just hits you – so I get that. I really do. We all think our heartbreak is unique at that age.
But you do have to grow out of it at some point, wise up and realize it’s over and you have to move on. How long has this been going on at this point? It would be one thing if the breakup was new, but I wish somebody would take her aside and just give her a good shake. Stop being dramatic. Stop thinking this is the end of everything. Stop giving him the satisfaction of knowing he had this effect on you. If nothing else, THAT should be your motivation. You cry, you scream, you throw a fit – but you don’t do it on public. You do at home, in private, where they can’t see. You don’t let them know you’re hurting. You don’t feed that ego.
Judging by the first (old) picture it’s obvious that Taylor Swift has a new nose now.
Selena had a wider nose too. She has hers thinned out for sure
It’s entirely possible the photo is edited. A shocking amount of Photoshop is done to “candid” press photos.
Was the party being mean to her? Or was she yelling — during — the party?
BULL$HIT! I’m calling it. #1 She wouldn’t do that in front of ex- Nick Jonas. #2 Pics tell a different story and #3 She is DONE with the Biebs. I especially like how they specifically state how other celebrities, including Sam Smith, just stared at her. One outlet even described his look as befuddled! Have you people listened to his music??? I Know I’m Not The Only One could be written about her and JB. This article is major BS.
Yeah take everything with a grain of salt. Most of these stories are fake or highly embellished.
Wow she is a messy codependent in the worse kind of way little girl. Some counseling and working on her self-esteem issues might do wonders.
OMG- the image of Sam Smith blankly staring at her as she tearfully shouted is killing me!
I used to think she was the last good young one left but God….what happened to her?
All of us people in the world laugh our asses of at Beibs. Selena’s acting like a 13 year old who can’t get over her first boyfriend. Does she see something great about him that I don’t? She should have stayed inside with the party. Looks like he’s not crying over her while hanging with his friends
Codependency is a helluva drug.
That must have been one sloppy drunk version of “Teardrops On My Guitar” that night, Sel. Sweat and mascara everywhere.
God, is Selena Gomez still a thing?
story’s likely made up.
She is truly pathetic. Crying over Bieb-dong is public is as lame as you can get.
All I noticed is how Selena really tweaked her nose from what it used to be back in ’08. Maybe that is why she acting the way she is, lack of oxygen to the brain? Could also explain her awful taste in “men.”
Correction: Selena is addicted to THE FAME Justin Bieber gives her.
It amazes me how she could be the where she is today. So weird.
Has she seen him as a blond? Come on, Selena. You could do better than him with your eyes closed.
I think it is BS. The wording sounds all wrong. Not like something a person would really say.
Major party foul, what a lame little twerp.
