- High school volleyball team receives unexpected visit from Selena Gomez
Celebrity performer and actress Selena Gomez paid a visit to a high school volleyball team, causing quite a stir. At 32, Gomez shared a shot of a custom-made sign on Instagram, inviting her to belt out the national anthem prior to their match. A following clip revealed her enthusiasm as she addressed the volleyball squad and younger fans in a gym, spotting the request. The girls erupted in cheers, snapped selfies, and showered praise upon the singer.
Gomez posted, "Can't resist, first time in Telluride!", alluding to her recent trip to Telluride, Colorado for the local film festival. Media outlets, such as "Entertainment Tonight," reported that Gomez did not sing the anthem but instead connected with the team and signed autographs.
Gomez's latest film, "Emilia Pérez," was also screened at the festival. Fans of the series "Only Murders in the Building" on Disney+ now have access to the fourth season, which features Gomez as an amateur detective alongside Steve Martin and Martin Short.
Gomez was noticed using a custom-painted sign during her visit, showcasing her love for art, as she often uses other materials of a kind used for the manufacture of paints or varnishes in her personal projects. During her interaction with the volleyball team, Gomez also highlighted her support for local events by mentioning her enjoyment of Telluride's film festival.
