“I am so grateful that I have been surrounded by human beings that make me better, challenge me, remind me day after day that every moment is a gift,” Gomez wrote on Instagram on July 19
Selena Gomez is living in her “best” era!
On Friday, July 19, Gomez, 31, posted a sweet photo of her with Steve Martin and Martin Short on Instagram as she reflected on her time with her Only Murders on the Building costars, days ahead of her 32nd birthday.
Gomez — who turns 32 on July 22 — wrote in the caption: “Upon reflection, I realize with my birthday coming up, 32, I am so grateful that I have been surrounded by human beings that make me better, challenge me, remind me day after day that every moment is a gift.”
“That’s my pure joy. I thank god for the era I’m in. It’s been the best yet 🤓,” she added.
In the snap, a beaming Gomez stood beside Short, 74, and Martin, 78, who was behind the pair in the middle, as the pair posed together in what appeared to be a studio lot with cameras and crew behind them.
Gomez’s poignant message and apparent tribute to her costars comes ahead of season four of Only Murders on the Building returning on Aug. 27. In the show, the trio play residents of the same New York City apartment building who solve crimes together.
In February, it was confirmed by Deadline that season 4 will take place in Los Angeles, at the beginning of the season at least, for the first time.
On Friday, Gomez also appeared in her boyfriend Benny Blanco’s video on TikTok as she tried the latest viral snack of a watermelon pickle sandwich, which he had prepared.
In the clip, Blanco, 36, filmed himself discussing the unusual dish as he prepared it in the kitchen.
“Have any of you seen this watermelon sandwich?” Blanco began. “So every night I get [motions being hungry] and I just start scrolling the internet … and four hours into it I come upon this f—— watermelon sandwich. And it has no bread — like the watermelon is the bread.”
Blanco then made the snack, adding sliced cheese and pickles on two chunky strips of watermelon and packing them together, before taking a bite.
“This looks f—— disgusting,” he commented, holding it to the camera.
As he chomped down on the ‘sandwich,’ Gomez could be heard saying in the background, “No, you don’t like it,” to which Blanco replied, “It’s not bad,” before he asked her to “come try.”
Gomez then appeared in the shot as she said, unenthusiastically, “I don’t want to.” While raising the watermelon snack to her lips she added, “I’m not going to like this … but I love pickles, OK.”
“Just eat it!” Blanco said. “I’m trying!” Gomez responded and took a bite.
While chewing, Blanco asked her,” Do you like it?” Gomez grimaced and shook her head, as she placed the watermelon sandwich down on the plate and walked out of the shot.
