Selena Gomez Shows Off Makeup-Free Selfies in Subtle Nod to Miley Cyrus’ ‘Violent Chemistry’ Single
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Selena Gomez showed off her natural beauty by sharing two stunning no-makeup selfies on Instagram. The 30-year-old actress and singer tagged fellow Disney star Miley Cyrus in the post with the caption “Violet chemistry,” a reference to a song from Cyrus’ latest album “Endless Summer Vacation” in the song, which she described as a “love letter to LA,” Cyrus sings about staying awhile and not denying the “purple chemistry” between two people.
Gomez exuded the same confidence as the song’s lyrics, showing off her glowing complexion in the selfies. In one photo, she looked directly at the camera, while in the other she sported a playful smile. Her shiny black hair fell in relaxed waves and she looked relaxed and content, perhaps enjoying some downtime at home.

After Cyrus replied to a post with a red heart, many fans flooded the comments section, noting his reference. One fan eagerly wrote, “MILEY COLLAB WHEN????” while another simply exclaimed, “The Miley reference 🥹.” Fans were in love with the singer, leaving comments such as “You’re so fucking real”, “ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING” and “This natural beauty 😍 the skin is so good 🤌🏽” Among the admirers was the actor Max Ehrich, who asked Cyrus out on a date saying, “Let’s go on a date to see my new Southern Gospel movie this week 🍿” Another fan took the time to write a heartfelt message, stating: “That’s why I respect and admire you. You leave everyone trying to look like filtered airbrush models feeling like it’s normal and okay. You are amazing, and your heart and soul were meant to be shared with the world. You’ve helped too many people, and for that, I’m forever grateful.”
The Disney Channel co-stars will rekindle their friendship
As teenagers working for Disney Channel, Gomez and Cyrus met and became fast friends. While Gomez made an appearance on Cyrus’ “Hannah Montana” series, she then starred in her own hit series “Wizards of Waverly Place.” Despite their friendship, rumors of a rivalry between the two have persisted for years, fueled by Cyrus’ apparent mockery of a video Gomez and Demi Lovato made on her show “The Miley and Mandy Show.” Additionally, Gomez dated Cyrus’ ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas, which only added to the speculation.
In April 2020, Gomez made an appearance on Cyrus’ Instagram show, “Bright Minded,” to discuss mental health. The couple had first met while spending time together on Disney. During the show, Cyrus explained how they reconnected, thanks to a simple yet meaningful gesture – a butterfly emoji. Cyrus expressed her gratitude for the connection, saying, “Connecting with people and letting them know you’re there. A butterfly emoji is totally enough.”
Last May, Cyrus showed her support for Gomez by sharing a photo of herself wearing a shirt that read, “Hell yeah I’m Miley Cyrus,” which referenced Gomez’s Saturday Night Live monologue. In the monologue, Gomez shared how she asked Cyrus for accommodation advice, to which Cyrus replied, “Yes, I’m Miley Cyrus.” Gomez perfectly mimicked Cyrus’ accent during the monologue, saying, “Just be yourself and have fun.”
