If it goes the way of fans' hearts, Chris Evans could very well be in love with any one of your favourite celebrities. Today, Cupid has moved his cute little aim from Lizzo to none other than Selena Gomez.
Rumours of Evans and Gomez being an item have been floating for a little while, but with very little in the way of evidence – until now. Well, sort of. Maybe. Kind of? You be the judge.
In Evans' recent Instagram story, in which he plays the piano under a text overlay saying "rainy day activities," some eagle-eyed sleuths are confident they can see the partial reflection of a brunette woman on the bottom left of the video.
One TikTok user screenshotted the glimpse and asked, ecstatic, "Is that Selena?!" And listen, it's tough to tell whether what we're seeing is even a reflection or hair or a woman, much less Gomez.
As one commenter pointed out, “It's called the piano lid. You know the thing that covers the keyboard.” Another noted that Gomez had recently cut her hair shorter, so it couldn't possibly be her.
All of this speculation began when Evans, 40, and Gomez, 29, were spotted leaving the same L.A. studio in early October, and then were photographed leaving the same restaurant. In both instances, they weren't actually together, and E! News managed to debunk both rumours, finding all of the photos were taken in separate years and in separate cities.
But shortly after, especially thirsty fans noticed Evans had begun following the younger star on Instagram. While it's possible they may just be working on a project together, if that really is Gomez joining in on rainy day activities, it could easily be more.
Gomez did, after all, once say that her celeb crush is Evans, telling Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live, "I kind of have a crush on Chris Evans. Isn't he cute? He's very cute." Yes he is.
She is also currently single, telling the L.A. Times earlier this year that the rumours surrounding her and her Only Murders in the Building co-star Aaron Dominguez possibly dating were tiresome.
She said, “We had just started working together. I honestly thought, ‘No wonder guys don’t want to date me!’ I think people only care because I’m young, and the older I get the less they’ll care. For now, it’s a part of the job that I don’t really like. ... I’m actually grateful that I’m not involved with anyone right now.”
Gomez, of course, previously and famously dated Justin Bieber and The Weeknd. Evans, meanwhile, was in a long-time relationship with Jenny Slate, and recently engaged in very flirty social media DMs with Lizzo.
Honestly, we'll take either ship.
