Selena Gomez Confronts Beyonce’s Paris Concert’s Security

by

Everyone’s been going crazy at Beyonce’s RENAISSANCE tour, and her Paris show on Friday (May 26) might be her most eventful yet. Sure, there’s the spectacular concert itself spanning a lot of her best work, but the show also had quite a few famous faces show up. For example, her husband Jay-Z and Roc Nation-managed MC Megan Thee Stallion danced along to her hits and seemed to have a great time at the show. However, despite the many, many fans that went ecstatic when they saw her, it seems like Selena Gomez ran into more than that at the show. Furthermore, clips surfaced online of the actress having a heated discussion with security.

While it’s unclear what could’ve provoked this interaction, it does remind fans of another superstar that raised their voice at security at a massive concert. That time, though, it was the superstar themselves. During a Philly stop of her “Eras” tour (which is almost as in-demand and hyped as Quee Bey’s), Taylor Swift told security to get off of fans on the barricade. As such, many theorized that Selena Gomez was probably running into a similar situation, or at least something else that was hindering her experience or that of fans at the show.

Selena Gomez’s Brush With Security At Beyonce Show

In other Selena Gomez-related news, she recently had to deal with fans pitting her against Hailey Bieber, her ex’s wife. Fortunately, the two smoothed any speculated beef out and addressed fans who kept trying to incite problems between them. “I want to thank Selena for speaking out, as her and I have been discussing the last few weeks how to move past this ongoing narrative between her and I,” Hailey expressed on Instagram. “The last few weeks have been very hard for everyone involved and millions of people are seeing so much hate around this which is extremely harmful. While social media is an incredible way to connect and build community, moments like this only create extreme division instead of bringing people together.”

Meanwhile, maybe one day we’ll hear an explanation of what went down at Beyonce’s show. Still, you’ll find so many clips on social media of fans screaming for Selena and reaching their hands out to say hello as she walked past them. With that in mind, whatever happened with security is at least balanced out by the wave of admiration and love she surely felt. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Selena Gomez and Beyonce’s RENAISSANCE tour.

Iconic Selena Outfit On Display At Smithsonian National Museum of American History

On top of Selena’s influential contributions to music, something else her fans continue to admire her for is her flashy and expressive outfits.

As a result of her fashion sense, one of her most famous fits is now part of a new exhibit at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History.

The “Entertainment Nation” exhibition serves as the museum’s very first exploration dedicated entirely to entertainment history. Along with the late singer’s iconic outfit, around 200 other objects will feature in the display.

Selena wore the fit that the museum is honoring in 1994 while performing at the Tejano Music Awards in her home state of Texas that year. Both the leather jacket she was wearing and the satin brasserie that she paired it with will be shown at the gallery.

The singer’s family is responsible for donating the pair of items to the museum four years later, in 1998.

1994 proved to be a busy year for the late American Tejano singer. She went on to win Female Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for Selena Live! Additionally, she also won Female Entertainer of the Year.

The “Amor Prohibido” singer was tragically murdered the following year by Yolanda Saldívar. Saldívar was a former nurse who went on to become the manager of Selena’s boutiques the year prior.

Complaints about her management style consequently followed. Furthermore, she was caught embezzling $30,000 from fan clubs and the boutique by forging checks.

As a result, this led to Selena’s parents confronting Saldívar about the situation, leading her to fatally shoot the singer in retaliation.

In 2020, the Quintanilla family announced a commemorative concert for the 25th anniversary of her death. The celebration of life took place on May 9, 2020, at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.

Last year, the world was witness to a dramatized scene of Beyoncé seeing Selena at a mall as a kid. The scene comes from the Netflix feature, Selena: The Series, documenting the late singer’s rise to fame.

Fans began questioning the authenticity of the event. In an old interview, the “Crazy In Love” singer insists that it did take place. After all, they are from the same state.

Finally, the exhibit’s doors officially opened last Friday (December 9). If you’re in Washington, be sure to check it out.
