Selena Gomez confirmed that Taylor swift’s song “Dorothea” is about her. On Tuesday, March 3, during an episode of Friends Keep Secrets hosted by Benny Blanco and Lil Dicky, along with his wife Kristin Batalucco, the Rare Beauty founder talked about her longtime friendship with Swift and revealed that the track, featured on Swift’s 2020 album, is about her.

“Well, ‘dorothea’ is about me, one of her songs. And I feel like a lot of moments and huge moments that were self-defining from relationships to family to love to hate, all of it in between, we were figuring it out because I was 15 and she was 18, and we didn’t really know what was going on. And so we’ve never seen each other any differently. So when I listen to it, I’m so impressed how it’s eloquently put.”

Initially, when Evermore was released in 2020, fans quickly speculated that “Dorothea” was inspired by Gomez. One fan broke down the theory in a detailed Twitter thread, pointing out several connections between the song and Gomez’s life, noting that Gomez favorite childhood movie is The Wizard of Oz, whose main character is Dorothy,  possibly inspiring the name “Dorothea.” The fan also referenced lyrics about “sellin’ makeup and magazines,” linking them to Gomez’s Rare Beauty brand and public image, as well as the line about “pageant schemes,” which nodded to her early years in child pageants.

Gomez and Taylor Swift have known each other since 2008, when they were both dating a member of the Jonas Brothers, which led to a close friendship. Reflecting on that journey during the podcast, Gomez said, “It’s absolutely unbelievable to come from 17 years of friendship, from multiple heartbreaks and love stories and fun stories in life, we both ended up fortunately being engaged around the same time.”

She also revealed that “Dorothea” isn’t the only song Swift has inspired by their friendship. According to Gomez, Swift wrote another track inspired by their friendship titled “Family,” though it was never released.

Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is currently serving a 50-month federal prison sentence on prostitution-related charges, has been hit with a new lawsuit filed by an anonymous plaintiff who claims he was sexually assaulted by the music mogul as a minor.

According to reports, the plaintiff, identified only as John Doe, alleges he was a working child actor when he attended a networking event at a Hollywood Hills residence in 2007. In the lawsuit, he claims he met Combs at the gathering and was later invited to speak with him privately about potential opportunities in the entertainment industry.

Doe alleges that once they were alone, Combs made unwanted physical advances that escalated into a sexual assault despite his objections and visible discomfort.

The lawsuit further claims that following the alleged incident, Combs told the young actor he would consider him for future career opportunities.

In addition to Combs, the complaint names several unidentified agents and associates who allegedly had a responsibility to safeguard minors attending the event.

Combs has denied the allegations. In a statement to Forbes, his spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, described the claims as “false and ridiculous.” Engelmayer also referred to the plaintiff as “another hater in a long list of people trying to get in on the money gravy train encouraged by personal injury lawyers” and maintained that Combs “has never sexually assaulted anyone and that includes any child.”
