Selena Gomez brought her 12-year-old younger sister, Gracie, along to see the Eras Tour at two different tour stops in 2023.
Friendship bracelets may be trendy, but they never really fade away.
Selena Gomez recently looked back through her photo archives and shared an Instagram post that ended with an almost three-year-old snapshot of her wrist covered in colorful beaded bracelets. She wore them while attending Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.
The “Love On” singer, now 33, showed her support for her longtime friend — a 14-time Grammy winner, 35 — by going to two tour stops during its record-breaking run: one in Arlington, Texas, in April 2023, and another in Los Angeles that August.
In the photo, Gomez displayed more than a dozen friendship bracelets, including the light-up bands handed out to fans to help create coordinated light effects across the stadium. Other pieces featured words like “Selena,” “Meredith,” and “SG,” mixed with bright beads and tassels stacked high along her arm in classic Eras Tour style.
She simply captioned the Instagram photo set, posted Thursday, Feb. 19, with the word “randoms.” The collection also included affectionate pictures with her husband, Benny Blanco, along with self-love quotes and glam selfies.
Gomez attended both concerts with her younger sister, Gracie. The pair first enjoyed the Arlington show on April 1, 2023, where Gomez wore a cardigan inspired by Swift’s Folklore era, while Gracie dressed in a purple outfit reminiscent of Speak Now. During the performance, Swift even gifted Gracie her signature fedora hat from the Red set.
The sisters later appeared together again at the Los Angeles stop on Aug. 8, 2023. In a heartfelt video shared on Instagram Stories, Gomez sang along to Swift’s song “Lover” while hugging her visibly emotional sister.
Swift and Gomez have been close friends for many years. They first met in 2008 while each was dating a member of the Jonas Brothers — Swift with Joe Jonas and Gomez with Nick Jonas. Since then, they’ve frequently supported each other, whether at award shows, on stage, or during major life milestones like Gomez’s engagement.
