After Selena Gomez was spotted wearing what some think looks very similar to Chris Evans’
sweater from his film Knives Out, the internet started to once again BUZZ with romance rumors...but
fans are divided on whether or not this is another TOTAL reach!
Let’s get into it.
Selena and Taylor Swift had fans REELING with excitement after the superstar duo made an
adorable TikTok together backstage during the Nov. 13th episode of SNL.
We love it when these besties flaunt their adorable friendship!
But weirdly enough, it wasn’t just their super cute TikTok that had some people talking,
but rather, Selena’s sweater!
We know!
Let us break it down...
In the slim chance you haven’t already heard, fans have been speculating about a secret
romance between Selena and Chris Evans for the past month or so, with some going to...extreme
lengths to prove their not-so-confirmed relationship.
Earlier this month, the internet was LOSING it after some speculated that Selena’s reflection
could be seen in Chris’ piano after he posted an IG story of him playing.
Yes, I know, it sounds like a total, total reach, right?
But people certainly haven’t stopped looking for possible evidence.
In the TikTok Taylor posted with Selena last weekend, many fans couldn't help but feel
like they'd seen her cozy white cable knit sweater somewhere before, most notably on
Chris in Knives Out.
I know, I know, it's a cable knit sweater and this all just sounds like it’s getting
more and more crazy.
But nevertheless, it seems the internet really is having this debate on whether or not the
sweater’s resemblance is just a coincidence, or whether Sel really is rocking Chris’
sweater?
And I assure you, it's not coming from us, it's been reported on by so many news outlets!
People really think this sweater situation is a thing!
So let’s take a closer look shall we?
I mean, let’s be real: a white, cable knit sweater is a staple of ANYONE’s wardrobe,
so it’s not unrealistic to assume Sel owns one of her own.
I’m pretty sure most of us have one that’s pretty similar.
However, some eagle-eyed fans have speculated that there are apparently too many similarities
for it to NOT be Chris’, referencing the scenes where he wears the sweater in Knives
Out.
BUT other fans have pointed to a sold-out top from Zara, which looks nearly identical
to the one Selena is wearing in Taylor’s TikTok.
Plus, if you take a closer look, as many people have noticed, Sel’s top has a turtleneck,
while the one Chris wears in the movie does not!
Also, my eyes are feeling a little blurry from staring so hard but if you look even
closer, the front centre cabling of Chris’ sweater appears to be a different pattern
to what you see in Selena’s.
I mean from these pics the cabling appears different throughout the entire sweater!
You see!
There’s not much to read here!
Who knows, maybe Sel and Chris just have a similar taste in sweaters?
Either way, the debate over whether or not Chris and Sel have a lowkey romance is leaving
fans DIVIDED.
Many took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the rumor, with fans CLEARLY picking sides.
This user hilariously shut down the rumors, saying “this will go down as one of the
craziest things this fandom has ever done… we really convinced the world that chris evans
and selena gomez were dating because we were bored, selenators are insane.”
Another fan clapped back, wrote “Y'all reaching it's not the same and Sel's one is whiter.”
But while some fans are skeptical, others are TOTALLY on board for a potential Chris/Selena
ship.
This user expressed their support for Chris and Sel, saying “I love the idea of chris
and selena together so selena wearing the cable knit sweater, warms my heart.”
And this fan added, “Yaas!!
I know there's no confirmation but I hope its true or I hope they date someday.”
While we definitely wouldn’t be opposed, there’s obviously no concrete confirmation
that these two are in any way together.
For now, the rumors remain complete speculation.
Both Chris and Selena haven’t commented on the matter, but we will be eagerly watching
for any updates, as it’s only a matter of time before fans find yet another Easter Egg
linking Chris and Sel.
Or let’s be real.
Attempting to link the two together.
But for now, the sweater theory is gonna go down on the list of just a reach….
