So In Love

SOLVED!

EXCLUSIVE!

[Blind Gossip] This young musical couple has been together for many months now. Her fans seem especially happy about it. Magazine articles talk about how they are so in love. Only… is it real?

One of their exes is claiming that it is not!

I’m not supposed to say anything, but it’s a PR relationship. There’s a contract. They are both just doing it for the publicity. It will be over in a few months.

For a young couple so in love, they do seem to go long stretches without seeing each other or mentioning each other.

We’ll check in with them in a few months to see if that that contract has expired!

SOLVED!

Him: The Weeknd

Her: Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez and The Weeknd/Abel just broke up!

We told you in July that it was a PR relationship, that there was a contract, and that it would be over in a few months.

Well, here we are, exactly three months later, and they are dunzo!

From Newsday:

Selena Gomez, The Weeknd split, report says

Singer-actress Selena Gomez reportedly has broken up with her boyfriend of 10 months, African-Canadian singer The Weeknd.

People magazine, citing anonymous sources, said Monday it had confirmed the split, attributing it to The Weeknd’s touring scheduled and Gomez “shooting in New York,” evidently referring to her role in Woody Allen’s upcoming film, “A Rainy Day in New York.”

Gomez, 25, had tried to attend concerts by The Weeknd, 27, born Abel Tesfaye, who is No. 6 on Forbes magazine’s 2017 list of highest paid celebrities, with an estimated $92 million earned in the year beginning June 2016. But their schedules made proximity difficult, the magazine said, adding that Gomez has not reconciled with her former boyfriend, singer Justin Bieber. TMZ had reported that the two were spotted having breakfast on Sunday morning in Los Angeles and then attending a church service together afterward.

Sorry, kids. Selena and The Weeknd were never a real couple. It was all a PR relationship.

You know what was also a PR relationship? The Weeknd and Bella Hadid. We told you about that one, too [see On Its Last Long Legs].

That’s two fakey fake relationships in a row for Abel!

Did you like the excuse for Selena and the Weeknd’s breakup? Scheduling problems. Ha!

Of course, Selena can not be seen as a cheater. That’s why there was the fast denial that she is back on with Justin.

But we will point out that unlike her relationship with Abel, Selena’s relationship with Justin Bieber was REAL. So that may explain why she is hanging out with him again. Well, that, coupled with this fact: Selena. Can. Never. Be. Alone.

Here’s a photo of Selena and Justin from this past weeknd (<- see what we did there?):

Lots of you got this one right, but kudos to Westcoastsunset for being first with the correct response!

    A real couple? I had no idea and even less interest.

    Selena & the Weekend
    She probably is falling for him a little, she seems the sort. Him, not so much.

  46. Lea214 says

    Him: The Weeknd

    Her: Selena Gomez

    [Optional] Did you think they were a real couple? Yeah… 🙁

    Selena Gomez
    The Weekend…..are my guess? Why?
    They look happy but friend like at the same time (when photographed out together).

  48. Persie says

    Him: The weekend.

    Her: Selena Gomez.

    Optional:It is so easy to see it was fake. He had an album to promote and she had one too

    It’s too bad that their mutual love of coke prevents them from being able to actually love each other…

    The Weeknd
    Selena Gomez

    I noticed that they only like things on each others IG’s when something is being promoted.

    Did I ever think they were for real? Nope.

  57. LC1216 says

    the Weekend and Selena…but yes. They are totally in love (at least, she is with him). I don’t believe that bitter ex for a single minute. Jealousy.

    Clue for me is they are young music stars and girl with signature poneytail that she is rockin’

  60. NoseyNana2008 says

    They’re not young, but my 1st thought was Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton. 🙂

  63. gilmourh says

    Good guess, they’re good actors if it is this couple. They had great chemistry at the Manchester concert

  64. TheSalmon says

    How on earth do so many people think this is them? You can’t swing a dead iphone without seeing pap shots of these two or some gooey social media post. They’re very visible and very vocal. (Just like she was with Bieber, which reportedly started as PR but became real.)
    It’s Ariana Ponytail and whoever she’s supposedly seeing.

  65. Mindflayer says

    This probably comes from THAT ONE of the exes of Ariana who is extremely unreliable, childish and jealous. He would do anything to hurt her. (If this supposed to be her)

    However, I don’t think its Ari and Mac. Because they were a lot together and as far I have seen mention AND seen each other a lot. He was even at the benefit concert in Manchester. They know each other for ages.

    Publicity? *smirk* They don’t need it at all.

  67. Magenta3 says

    Absolute truckloads of PR being rolled out from Gomez’s team to make sure it’s known that 1: SG called time on Abelena , while also making Abel not look like a cad . 2: JB reached out to her, so she looks like the prize. JB didn’t & she isn’t. 3: Her fam’s hardcore protest doesn’t explain why if JB’s so “vile,” why she’d want to spend time. Spoiler: He isn’t vile. But since she pretended he was in songs & interviews she has to (indirectly) humiliate him or look like a weak liar.

  69. jj the great says

    True… but you can have chemistry with someone and not be in a relationship? Don’t you think? Maybe they’re just really great friends.
