  • The My Mind & Me star came under fire for saying Taylor Swift is her only friend in showbiz – failing to mention actress Francia Raisa, who once donated a kidney to her
  • She’s had volatile friendships with A-listers from Miley Cyrus to Kendall and Kylie Jenner – but Cara Delevingne, Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn Beckham and David Henrie remain close

Pop singer Selena Gomez recently came under a lot of scrutiny for saying in a profile for Rolling Stone that her only friend in the industry is long-time BFF Taylor Swift.

This came as a bit of a shock for Gomez fans and it certainly did not sit well with actress Francia Raisa, who donated a kidney to the “Come & Get it” singer in 2017. Gomez needed the transplant due to complications with lupus, a life threatening disease she was diagnosed with in 2014, per Teen Vogue. Raisa unfollowed Gomez soon after the interview came out and it seems that the two have had a falling out.

In another controversial move, the My Mind & Me star clapped back at the criticism for her choice of words by commenting, “Sorry I didn’t mention every person I know,” in a TikTok video addressing the Raisa drama.

Gomez and Lovato, both 30, first met during early childhood as singers and starred together in the popular kids show Barney & Friends. They later went on to work for Disney Channel and the close friendship of the two stars was well known to the public.

The besties also worked on a couple projects together such as co-starring in the Disney Channel movie Princess Protection Programme and producing their song “One and the Same”.
