In a heartwarming display of camaraderie, Selena Gomez took to Instagram to share a nostalgic tribute to her cherished moments with co-stars and close friends, Steve Martin and Martin Short. The 31-year-old singer and actress posted a delightful carousel of photos, capturing the trio’s genuine affection and camaraderie both on and off the set of their hit Hulu series, “Only Murders in the Building.”
Gomez’s Instagram post began with a snapshot from their time filming the acclaimed series, providing fans with a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes camaraderie. The carousel continued with endearing photos of Gomez alongside the legendary Steve Martin, 78, and the ever-charming Martin Short, 73. The collection also featured candid moments of hugs, laughter, and playful group shots, offering a candid look into the trio’s bond.
Notably, the show’s official Instagram account and Hulu joined in to express their appreciation for the heartwarming post. The show’s comment, “BFFs [heart emoji],” and Hulu’s comment, “this friendship,” highlighted the genuine connection shared between Gomez, Martin, and Short.
In a candid interview with TheWrap in June, Selena Gomez opened up about her transformative experience working alongside seasoned actors and comedians. Describing how Martin and Short played pivotal roles in honing her skills, Gomez shared, “They’ve helped sharpen my skills. I hope to be as funny as they are one day. They are just really gifted at creating a situation out of nothing and making people laugh, and I admire that deeply.”
Despite the notable age gap, Gomez emphasized that her co-stars made her feel welcomed and included from the moment she stepped onto the set. Expressing initial concerns about potential loneliness, she revealed, “I was worried that I’d be a little lonely because I’d be on set and most of the time I would be with Steve and Marty.” However, she shared that her worries quickly dissipated as Martin and Short “just took me under their wing, picked on me, made me laugh, and had words of wisdom when I needed them. All of the fear of me feeling like I would be alone went away, and now they’re my guys.”
Selena Gomez’s Instagram tribute not only celebrates the genuine friendship between the trio but also highlights the positive impact of mentorship and camaraderie in the entertainment industry. As Gomez continues to navigate her career, the bond with Steve Martin and Martin Short stands as a testament to the enduring connections formed on and off the screen.
