Before there was Bieber there was Taylor Lautner! The actors crossed paths in Vancouver in 2009, where Selena was filming Ramona and Beezus and Taylor was filming Twilight: New Moon. 

‘Kristen [Stewart] was staying in my hotel,” Selena explained in a 2009 interview with Seventeen. “He would visit her, so we were constantly running into each other in the lobby—and we ended up meeting. We would go out to lunch and dinner, but I knew he had paparazzi following him and I had paparazzi following me. So we literally just wanted to hang out, go bowling and stuff, and it went a little too far, I think. People were getting a little crazy about us.”

Although Selena gushed that Taylor had made her “so happy” at the time, the Disney Channel alum also confirmed that she was “100 percent single” during the interview.

Selena’s most known relationship was with Justin Bieber! This romance saga goes back to 2010, when the singers created buzz with their infamous hangout at an IHOP. However, the relationship wasn’t made official until their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2011 Vanity Fair Oscars Party. They enjoyed a very public romance from there on out, showing off PDA at events like the 2011 Billboard Music Awards and 2011 American Music Awards.

However, it was reported by Nov. 2012 that Selena and Justin split, and Selena even confirmed that she was single on The Late Late Show with David Letterman in March 2013. However, the couple was back together by Sept. 2014, but not for long. In November of that year, Selena released a hearbreaking ballad about their on-again, off-again relationship called “The Heart Wants What It Wants.”

Selena went on to enjoy relationships with Zedd and The Weeknd (more on that below), but went back to hanging out with Justin between late 2017-early 2018. Selena even wished her ex a public happy birthday in March of 2018! However, things took a sudden turn when Justin began dating his friend, model Hailey Baldwin, in the summer of 2018. They were married by September of that year, thus ending Selena and Justin’s love story.

Outlets reported that Selena Gomez and Orlando Bloom reportedly hooked up in April 2014. Both, however, have denied those rumors.

Two days after the photos surfaced, Katy Perry — Orlando’s girlfriend whom he’s now engaged to — tweeted to not give “energy” and “eyeballs” to a “dumb conspiracy” and instead directed attention to Orlando’s essay in Time magazine. Selena retweeted Katy’s message!

Fans speculated that these two were an item when Zedd posted a picture of Selena Gomez in bed in Feb. 2015. During that same month, Zedd revealed that he met the famous pop star while popping into the music studio he worked at to use the bathroom. The head of Zedd’s label happened to be there, along with Selena — so, an introduction was made!

The relationship was short-lived, and Zedd recalled the experience during his interview with Billboard in 2017. “Reporters were calling my parents. People were hacking my friends’ phones. I was pissed. [Though] I kind of knew what I was getting myself into…She is one of the most talked about people in the world, but I had no idea how much that would change my life,” the EDM artist told the outlet.

Myself and Selena are really good friends with the same group of mates,” Niall said on the Australian radio show.
