Peek behind the scenes as Selena Gomez reflects on her initial concerns about loneliness on set, only to find herself embraced by the warmth of Steve Martin and Martin Short. Uncover the unexpected friendship that bloomed between Gomez and her "guys," as she fondly refers to them.
Through shared laughter, inside jokes, and mutual respect, Gomez expresses how her best friends have turned out to be two septuagenarians, breaking the stereotypes of age-defined friendships.
In a surprising twist, Martin Short, initially uncertain about working with Gomez, shares his amazement at her professionalism and talent.
"The first day we shot, I had never met Selena. Because of COVID, we'd only Zoomed," he recalled. "And I was driving to work and I thought, I wonder what Selena could be like? I mean, she could be a nightmare. She could be a pop princess nightmare."
Instead, she’s professional — she’s “always on time, always knows her lines” — and continues to impress Short.
“So good, so talented, such a pro," he spoke very highly of his fellow actor. "It's fabulous."
The trio, both on and off-screen, continues to charm audiences with their infectious camaraderie and undeniable chemistry.
