Selena Gomez has created buzz with her latest move by adding her followers to a close friends circle on Instagram. But there's a catch! Read to know more details.
Are you also on the list of followers of Selena Gomez? Many Instagram users woke up to being added to the close friends list of the singer, in which a green circle usually appears upon a new story upload. However, an interesting catch is a yellow bubble appears around Selena's profile, which has created strong buzz on social media.
Why is Selena Gomez adding her followers to the close friend's list on Instagram?
The singer went all-in on Instagram’s new Secret Friends feature today to promote her husband Benny Blanco’s hot new podcast, but with an interesting twist. She used Instagram's mystery Instagram secret friend list on March 3. The yellow ring around her story stood out immediately against all other content.
Unlike the standard Close Friends feature, which uses a green ring and restricts viewership, this new format displays to everyone. Gomez’s stories with the yellow ring remain visible to all her followers. The visual confusion sparked hours of online debate. Fans believed Instagram quietly launched a new public feature. However, it hints at a promotional tool tied to Benny Blanco’s latest project.
