Renowned singer Selena Gomez made a mesmerizing appearance at the 40th Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
The star-studded event took place at The Arlington Theatre in Southern California on Sunday, February 9, 2025, where Selena graced the red carpet.
The Calm Down singer opted for an elegant white minidress, perfectly paired with matching heels.
To elevate her red carpet look, Selena styled her brunette locks in a sleek, center-parted cascade over her shoulders.
Notably, her massive diamond engagement ring, gifted by fiancé Benny Blanco in December, was missing from her finger.
During the grand event, Selena also addressed her co-star Karla Sofia Gascon’s remarks on Islamophobia.
She expressed, “I’m really good. Some of the magic has disappeared, but I choose to continue being proud of what I’ve done. I’m just grateful and live with no regrets.”
The 32-year-old singer-turned-actress added, “And I would do this movie repeatedly if I could.”
Selena also took the stage to discuss her newly released musical-thriller film, Emilia Pérez.
For those unaware, the Grammy-nominated artist’s film was released in November 2024.
Apart from Selena Gomez, several Hollywood icons, including Ariana Grande, Angelina Grande, and others, also attended the event.
