    Aug 13 2025
    Selena Gomez BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Selena Gomez has had an exceptionally vibrant week, blending red carpet glamour with business dominance and genuine moments of personal reflection. On August 10 she and fiancé Benny Blanco made a striking appearance at Lil Dicky and Kristin Batalucco’s wedding, matching each other in Old Hollywood-inspired looks. Selena wore a sleeveless scarlet halter dress with a plush black coat draped off her shoulders, opting for a sleek updo and a bold red lip masterminded by celebrity makeup artist Jenna Nicole. The couple looked deeply in sync both sartorially and emotionally—Selena posting on Instagram with the caption About last nights wedding. Notably, she let her fuzzy black coat slip off in a clip dabbing on her Rare Beauty parfum, making her thriving cosmetics line part of the moment according to Elle and Harpers Bazaar. While many speculated that their nuptials were imminent, Selena dispelled rumors, stating on Jake Shane’s Therapuss podcast that the wedding is not happening anytime soon due to both their packed schedules and a desire to savor the engagement. She did however flash her stunning marquise diamond ring in more candid Instagram snaps.

    Professionally, Selena continues to dominate. Multiple outlets including The Tradable and AOL reported this week that her net worth now hovers near a staggering 1.3 billion dollars, largely stemming from Rare Beauty. Her direct involvement, from branding to social activism, has propelled the company’s valuation to nearly 2 billion. The brand’s focus on mental health, with 1 percent of sales funneling into the Rare Impact Fund, has raised 16 million for worldwide causes—a fact directly linked to Selena’s advocacy and authentic candor about her mental health struggles.

    Musically, Selena revealed her desire to re-record her 2011 hit Who Says during her Therapuss podcast interview, telling host Jake Shane she loved the empowering track but wished her voice sounded a bit more mature. The candid admission gave fans hope for a possible musical revisit. She also shared insight into her enduring friendship with Taylor Swift, prompting speculation about future musical collaborations though nothing is officially confirmed People and iHeart covered her remarks.

    On-screen, Selena remains committed to her Emmy-nominated role in Only Murders in the Building. On August 13 she celebrated Martin Short’s recent nominations with an Instagram story stating So happy for my Marty Parade noted her pride and the upcoming fifth season set for a September 9 premiere. Meanwhile Disney announced Selena’s ongoing role as a producer for the reboot Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.

    For her public advocacy, Selena just announced—via Instagram—that she will attend the Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington DC on October 14, where she’s expected to join influential voices like Elyse Cohen.

    On social media the mood has been overwhelmingly sweet. Her recent interview clips went viral, with fans praising her warmth and reflections on growing up Disney and bringing authenticity to Hollywood.

    All told Selena Gomez spent these past days reinforcing her status not just as a star but as a multi-hyphenate mogul, change-maker, and style icon, with every headline, story, and candid shot fueling her modern-day legend.

  • Selena Gomez: Billion-Dollar Beauty, Secret Weddings, and Redefining Stardom
    Aug 13 2025
    Selena Gomez BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Selena Gomez has been turning heads with every move lately and in the past few days her whirlwind of activity has kept fans, the press, and the business world all watching closely. The pop superstar and Rare Beauty mogul caused a major stir after attending rapper Lil Dicky’s wedding with fiancé Benny Blanco just days ago. Parade reports Selena stunned in a fiery red Cult Gaia halter midi dress while Benny’s mom, Sandy Levin, and sister-in-law Evi Levin both joined her in matching red, resulting in a social media moment that had fans buzzing. The snaps, which Selena herself shared on Instagram with the caption About last nights wedding, instantly ignited rumors of a secret marriage with SZA and Rachael Ray commenting in confusion, though it was solely a guest appearance. Selena and Benny got engaged in December 2024 yet, as she clarified on the Therapuss podcast with Jake Shane last week, wedding planning is still on hold while each focuses on personal projects. She gushed, I just have never really felt so sure about something and promised fans the planning will start in earnest soon.

    Switching from weddings to the business world, Selena just notched an extraordinary milestone. The Tradable revealed her net worth has soared to about $1.3 billion, making her not merely the richest Disney alumna ever but a full-blown business magnate. Bloomberg calculates that a staggering 81 percent of her fortune stems from Rare Beauty, which generated 370 million dollars in sales in just 2024. The brand’s success is driven both by affordable, accessible products and its outspoken support for mental health—a cause Selena publicly champions. The Rare Impact Fund, funded partly from beauty sales, has already contributed sixteen million dollars to organizations worldwide as reported by AOL, and Selena plans to raise 100 million eventually.

    In music and media headlines, Selena made news with her openness about her older tracks. In a recent Therapuss podcast appearance, she revealed she’s itching to rerecord her 2011 empowerment anthem Who Says, saying, I need to redo it. I should recut it, and admitted she dreams of performing it on tour again—fueling rampant social media chatter about a possible new release or comeback performance, though nothing has been formally announced yet.

    October is shaping up for another high-profile public appearance: Selena will attend the Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington DC alongside Rare Beauty executive Elyse Cohen to discuss mental health and business leadership, confirmed by both the event’s Instagram and fan outlets.

    On social, Selena’s posts from the wedding—and her billion-dollar success—have been widely shared and discussed, bringing a fresh spotlight to her uniquely open, authentic public persona. Press such as NewsBytesApp and Harpers Bazaar emphasize that she’s redefining what it means to be a modern star: blending authenticity, vulnerability, and relentless ambition. Amid rumors and wishful fan speculation, only the headlines of the past days are certain—Selena Gomez is at the height of power, popularity, and influence, securing her legacy both far beyond and right at the center of pop culture.

  • Selena Gomez: Billion-Dollar Beauty, Rare Resilience, and Hints of a Comeback
    Aug 10 2025
    Selena Gomez BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Selena Gomez has had a headline-grabbing week, much of it centering on her Rare Beauty business, her public appearances, and some heartfelt personal moments both online and off. The biggest news came when she celebrated the launch of Rare Beauty’s first-ever Eau de Parfum with a glitzy Los Angeles party on August 7, attended by stars including the cast of Love Island USA. Social media exploded with videos of Gomez jumping for joy as she met the reality show’s contestants for the first time, with Amaya Espinal sharing their own TikTok of Selena spritzing the new fragrance. The event also made a splash for Gomez’s style, with Elle and Harper’s Bazaar covering her choice of a shimmering halter dress by Cult Gaia and her poised, fresh aesthetic—both a statement of her calm domination in the beauty business.

    Rare Beauty, by the way, is not just making headlines for its celebrity founder. Recent financial profiles from Bloomberg, The Tradable, and Elle confirm that Gomez’s net worth has soared past $1.3 billion, with over 80 percent of that directly tied to Rare Beauty’s continued explosive growth. Analysts point out that her 51 percent ownership stake is now worth well over $1 billion, cementing her as not only the richest former Disney star but also one of the shrewdest entrepreneurs in the entertainment world. There is also speculation about a potential Rare Beauty IPO or sale, but Gomez downplayed the rumors in her Women’s Wear Daily interview, saying she is determined to keep the focus on meaningful products and community.

    On the music front, Selena generated buzz by discussing her desire to re-record “Who Says,” the signature track from her days with Selena Gomez and the Scene. Interviewed on Jake Shane’s Therapuss podcast, she reflected on the song’s lasting resonance and admitted a new version might let her perform it on tour again—hinting that a comeback is not off the table, although she joked she would have to drop the key down several octaves for her current voice.

    Social media and tabloids also picked up Gomez’s low-key posts from her downtime this summer, showing cozy date nights with fiancé Benny Blanco, personal photos from Wizards of Waverly Place watch parties with old co-stars, and moments of candid reflection. Fans continue to celebrate her resilience and candor, especially given her open discussions on friendship—Taylor Swift among her closest—and mental health.

    Wrapping her busy week, Gomez remains in the spotlight for ongoing work on Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, production for Only Murders in the Building’s fifth season set to premiere in September, and of course, for her philanthropic efforts connected to mental health through the Rare Impact Fund. If the past few days are any sign, Selena Gomez is as present—and as influential—as ever, leading every headline from the boardroom to the red carpet.
