Chris-lena shippers, assemble because there’s new fuel to the speculation that Chris Evans
and Selena Gomez might actually be dating?
And this new theory involves Chris’ best friend, her Instagram and a real sign that
this coupling might actually be happening?
We’ve gotta get into this!
Ever since the first sprinkling of rumors that Chris Evans and Selena Gomez might be
dating a couple weeks ago, fans have been keeping their eyes OPEN for any crumb of evidence
to prove that the secret pairing is a real thing and not just a figment of our wild imaginations...
While most fans can be a bit prickly about the love lives of their favorite celebs, everyone
seemed to jump on board the hypothetical Sel and Chris coupling pretty easily.
They’re both great humans and adorable, so, why WOULDN’T we want them together?
Fans were even quick to point out that back in 2015, Sel even told Andy Cohen on Watch
What Happens Live!...
TOSS: 0:10-0:17 “I kind of have a crush on Chris Evans.
Isn’t he cute?
He’s very cute.”
Yes girl, yes he is.
While neither Chris nor Selena have confirmed, denied or commented on the rumors, last week
some fans became convinced that a post on Chris’ Instagram story added even more fuel
to these dating rumors.
In IG the video shared to TikTok, Chris sits at his piano playing some “rainy day”
songs and many TikTok investigators became CONVINCED that they could actually see Selena
Gomez in the reflection of the piano filming the video for him.
Shippers REALLY wanted to believe that it was Sel in the reflection.
However, many others skewed on the more realistic side by saying they couldn’t see ANYTHING
in the reflection… let alone Selena standing there recording the video..
However, while that video was quite a reach in terms of evidence, this newest crumb that
could possibly be linking these two is a real eye-opener.
Sharp-eyed fans have noticed that Chris Evans’ childhood best friend, Tara Testa who goes
by @LadyBidwell on Instagram, just officially followed Selena Gomez’s account on IG.
Ummmmm does this mean Sel got his bestie’s seal of approval?!?
I mean, it’s certainly possible!
But wait.
Who IS Tara Testa?
Well, she’s Chris’s BFF from childhood!
Since they grew up together and have remained close throughout the years, Chris has taken
her as his date to red carpet events and Hollywood parties alike.
He’s even featured her on his IG stories when he not so nicely scared the bejesus out
of her.
Okay, so Tara, who just so happens to be Chris’s bestie, followed Sel on IG… over 270 million
other people also follow Selena on Instagram.
What’s the big deal?
WELL!
New photos of Chris Evans dressed up and celebrating Halloween could also be an indicator that
something more is happening...
This year, Chris chose to dress up as Crocodile Dundee and we only know this because…
Tara posted photos of him on her Instagram story at what looks to be a Halloween party
she hosted.
Which means the pair were hanging out this Halloween weekend and MAYBE, just maybe, Chris
revealed something to Tara during the party about he and Sel?...
Thus causing Tara to hit up her Instagram and go follow the singer’s page so she can
keep an eye out for Selener and see if she, as Chris’s BFF approves of the pairing!!!???
Ok, Ok, ok we need to slow down for a second, because we might just be ‘jumping the gun’
here, buuut many fans don’t seem to think so, especially because wouldn’t YOU tell
your best friend about a possible new love interest while chatting over drinks at a Halloween
party?
Duh!
But, let’s be real, while this could be a possibility, it could also be a massive
reach, because who wouldn’t want to follow queen, Selena, right?
While we wait for either of these two to comment ANYTHING on these dating rumors, we’re just
going to happily imagine the ripples this power couple would create all over Hollywood
if they are, or ever would become, truly an item.
Just in case you missed the full TikTok investigation of whether Sel was in the reflection of Chris’s
piano, catch up on it right over here:
Then head down to the comments and let us know what YOU think about Chris’ bestie
following Sel and if you think anything is actually going on, or if you think the rumors
are just a reach?
