Selena Gomez/ Instagram Most recently, Gomez worked with Blanco to create her latest hit, "Single Soon." In July, he was also present at her 31st birthday party. In September, however, Gomez uploaded a TikTok where she mouthed an audio saying, "Guess who has a boyfriend?" "Not me bitch," she mouthed. "Stay safe out there." In a recent interview with SiriusXM Hits 1 LA with Tony Fly and Symon, the pop star and actress opened up about enjoying life on her own and revealed her new music will be entirely made up of feel-good songs. "I think everybody goes through the phase of, 'Oh, it'd be nice to like have someone,' and I get that," said Gomez. "But you know, I'm just enjoying where I'm at, and I just want to be happy with who I am so that whenever that person comes into my life, I can just have them add on to me instead of being this insecure, you know, person that I normally used to be."

The Only Murders in the Building star revealed that her most recent single "Single Soon" is about looking forward to the end of a relationship. "It's basically my way of saying, 'It's totally OK being on your own, and it's fun," she explained of the track to the radio program. In the song's music video, Gomez references a viral TikTok she posted in June where she's sitting in a soccer field and shouting to players that she's single. However, she told SiriusXM Hits 1 LA that her attempt at flirting didn't exactly work: "They didn't hear me, and they didn't really care, so I was just like, 'Alright.'" The "Single Soon" music video also features Gomez on a night out with fellow single friends, which she explained is pretty similar to her actual girls' nights out. "It really is. It's so much fun. I mean, you know, my friends will just pick up and wanna go somewhere," the performer said. Close
