On January 22, Gomez posted a short video to her Instagram Stories that has left fans buzzing with anticipation.
The Instagram Tease: A Hint of New Music?
In the video, Gomez can be seen wearing headphones, sitting at a desk, with music playing in the background. She then turns the camera towards her computer screen, where a large red heart is placed over what she was working on. As the camera pans to reveal a computer speaker, Gomez flashes an excited smile and closes her eyes, adding to the mystery. The video cuts off before any substantial reveal, leaving her fans to speculate if this teaser could be signaling the arrival of a new song from the pop icon.
Fans React to the Excitement of New Music
Though Selena Gomez has yet to confirm anything official, her cryptic post has sent fans into a frenzy. The idea of new music from the singer has sparked various theories among her loyal following. Gomez’s fiancé, Benny Blanco, further fueled the speculation by sharing the same video on his TikTok account, leaving fans even more curious about what’s to come.
One fan commented, “You guys are cooking something for us eh!?🥰,” while others speculated about the mysterious video, asking, “What does this mean? Are they recording together or … because I can’t make out the voice singing.” Some fans even wondered, “Is it a song leak?” suggesting they were hoping for an early listen to the new track.
Others expressed excitement at the possibility of Gomez returning to music, with comments like, “OMG I am so ready for a new Selena music era 😭😭🫶🏽,” and “New track!!!! 💐💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.”
Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez’s Music Tease
This isn’t the first time rumors about Selena Gomez’s new music have surfaced. Earlier in January, Benny Blanco sparked further speculation when he posted a TikTok video on January 17. In the video, Blanco opens a door to reveal Gomez sitting in front of a microphone. He says, “Hi,” to which she responds with a simple, “Hi.” Fans were quick to jump to conclusions, thinking this might be a sign that the two were collaborating on a new track.
Gomez’s Thoughts on Music and Acting
While Gomez has hinted at returning to music, she also expressed her commitment to her growing career in film and TV. In a November 2024 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she shared, “I think I’ve done just as much as I wanted to do in music, but it’s exciting because I feel like I haven’t even started in film and TV.” She continued, “I like that I have to earn my position, and I love storytelling. So, I’m excited to do more of that.”
However, she also clarified that her passion for music isn’t over. “Music isn’t going away. I just set it down for a second,” she said, hinting that her musical journey may be far from finished.
