Selena Gomez Says She and Taylor Swift Became Friends Because of the Jonas Brothers

Selena Gomez just revealed the origin story of her 16-year friendship with Taylor Swift.

During an August 6 appearance on the “Therapuss” podcast, Gomez was asked how she met the “Love Story” singer.

Gomez, 33, said they first crossed paths in the ’00s when they “dated the Jonas Brothers” at the same time.

“I dated Nick and she dated Joe,” Gomez said with a laugh. Swift and Joe Jonas were linked in 2008.

“We were young. We all know and love each other now. It’s so cute. We didn’t know what we were doing. But, yeah, she and I like to say that the best thing we got out of those relationships was each other because it was really sweet,” Gomez added.

“I was about 15. She was about 18 and that’s when it was the crazy curly Taylor,” she said of Swift’s hair. “And she had all these bracelets that went all the way up.”

When both ended up splitting with their Jonas Brother boyfriends, Gomez said they “bonded” over the breakups.

“So, at that age, we became best friends, bonded over the breakup as girls do and then we stuck around for all the ups and downs that came after and here we are now 16 years later,” she said.

Gomez then recalled the first time she heard Swift’s song “Love Story” and said she instantly knew it was a hit.

“I believe ‘Love Story’ was the first song she had ever played me. It wasn’t released yet. I was in a hotel room and I remember it vividly. It was one of those songs I instantly heard and thought, ‘This is one of the most beautiful songs ever,’” she said.

Gomez said Swift acted very “sweet” when she told her about “Love Story.”

“She’s a chameleon. She’s incredible,” she said.

Swift and Gomez have supported each through the years, whether on New York nights out or award shows. Earlier this year, Swift sent Gomez and her fiancé Benny Blanco a loaf of bread for her birthday.
