A viral clip of Selena Gomez yelling from the sidelines of what looks like a pickup soccer game has spread like wildfire on the internet. Seriously, look up “Selena Gomez at soccer game” and you will have at least 50 different articles pop up in your face.
Ironically, I’m sort of doing the same thing right now.
The 30-year-old singer posted a video to her TikTok of her yelling out to some soccer players, “I’m single! I’m a little high maintenance, but I’ll love you sooooo much!”
The video already has over 26 million views in the span of 20 hours.

Celebrity gossip is truly a different breed of media that I just don’t understand. You can’t deny their determination and dedication to coverage though.
