00:00Selena Gomez is shutting down claims that she insulted her BFF Taylor Swift with a shady
00:05social media comment after the Knicks' big win. Swift was in attendance for the Knicks' Game 4
00:10victory over the San Antonio Spurs alongside pals Alana and S.D. Haim. Gomez, who wasn't at
00:16Madison Square Garden, was forced to address speculation that her longtime friendship with
00:20Swift is on the rocks. She wrote on her Instagram story,
00:24woke up and was sent so many texts. I would never insult my friends, nor was it an insult.
00:29The comment was a reaction to the first slide on the page. The comment in question was left by
00:34Gomez on an MTV Instagram post showing Swift hugging a stunned Mariska Hargitay during Game 4.
00:41Gomez simply commented, LOL on the post. Now she's clarifying that she was laughing at the photo
00:46itself, not the people in it. Gomez also brushed off the online drama, writing,
00:51also, it's a basketball game. The Texas native has long been a fan of the San Antonio Spurs.
00:57Shortly after the team lost Game 4, she shared this throwback photo from a game and wrote,
01:02happy for NY, but my heart breaks just a little, LOL, it's okay. I'm happy for the teams. Thanks
01:08for giving us some great games, NBA. She also poked fun at the number of celebrities at the garden,
01:14saying it's so funny how suddenly so many people are Knicks fans. But Swift is hardly a bandwagon fan.
01:20She's been attending Knicks games for more than a decade, dating back to her move to New York City
01:25during her 1989 era. Still, Swift caught some flack after attending a playoff game with fiancĂŠ
01:30Travis Kelsey and rooting for the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Knicks. Now, Swift is showing her
01:36support for New York in the finals, matching some of the Haim sisters in pun-filled blue baby Knicks
01:41tees. This all comes ahead of Swift's highly anticipated wedding this summer, which is reportedly set
01:47to take place on July 3rd at MSG. As for Gomez, who married Benny Blanco earlier this year,
01:53Swift was by her side while she got ready for the big day and even delivered a speech at the
01:57reception.
