Selena Gomez is allegedly smitten with Chris Evans, but the singer’s friends want her to guard her heart.
In its Nov. 1 issue, OK! magazine claimed that Selena and Evans are starting to get close to each other.
Gomez recently revealed that Evans is her celebrity crush, and the Captain America actor immediately added that singer on Instagram. Since then, the two have allegedly been talking nonstop.
“He didn’t waste any time reaching out to her directly, and she’s fallen totally under his spell. Chris is a great guy, but he’s a total commitment-phobe and that’s the last thing Selena needs right now,” the source said.
The insider said that Gomez’s friends don’t have any issue with her crushing on Evans. But they want her to realize that the actor has not been in any serious relationship throughout the past couple of years.
Gomez, on the other hand, has been waiting for the right guy for the past years since her split from Justin Bieber. And this shows that her goals might not align with Evans’ goals.
“Selena’s worked hard on her mental health and changing her patterns, so it’s a little disappointing that she’s even considering dating Chris. Hopefully, she’s not going into it with blinders on so she’ll see the red flags,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. There is no proof that Gomez has a crush on Evans or that she wants to date the actor.
So, if the rumors are not true, it’s unlikely for Gomez’s friends to be warning her about Evans.
Earlier this month, Teen Vogue explained why the rumors between Gomez and Evans have been circulating.
It all started with fans noticing that the actor is following the singer on Instagram.
Shortly after, old photos of the A-listers were uploaded on social media. And tabloids alleged that they were taken recently. However, the snaps were taken years ago.
In 2015, Gomez revealed that she thinks that Evans is cute. However, the publication pointed out that calling someone cute doesn’t automatically mean that you want to date the person.
This seems like more than enough confirmation that Gomez and Evans are not dating. And they’re not also interested in each other.
The A-listers are also being linked to each other by the tabloids for the simple reason that they are both single.
