Awards show or not, it’s never a bad time to catch up with your bestie.

On January 7, Taylor Swift, 34, and one of her closest friends, Selena Gomez, 31, attended the 81st annual Golden Globe Awards. This year, the “Cruel Summer” singer’s record-breaking concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, was nominated for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. Meanwhile, Gomez was one of the contenders for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series, Comedy or Musical.

In a photo snapped at the event, the two friends were seen whispering to each other with shocked facial expressions. What they were talking about? The internet has been in an absolute tizzy trying to figure it out.

In a comment shared by E! News, one fan wrote on social media, “The tea was piping hot.” Another person commented, “What’s the gossip?” One fan posted the moment, which was also captured on video, on X (formerly known as Twitter) and wrote in the caption, “Oh that nod said a LOT.” And the third person caught on camera in the viral moment? That would be Keleigh Sperry Teller, actor Miles Teller’s wife.

Well Gomez finally set the record straight. In response to conjecture the convo was about Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, Gomez wrote on Instagram, "Noooooo, I told Taylor about my two friends who hooked up. Not that that's anyone's business." Phew. At least we have answers.

For the ceremony, Swift donned a gorgeous green dress designed by Gucci. The floor-length gown featured thin spaghetti straps with a low-cut neckline. In contrast, Gomez wore a red, asymmetrical Giorgio Armani dress. At one point, the Only Murders in the Building star recreated Marilyn Monroe’s iconic flying skirt moment.
