## Key points

- The Rare Beauty campaign was a professional collaboration.
- Gomez and Lovato have begun reconnecting.
- Their friendship is not back to its former closeness.

## Summary

Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato’s Rare Beauty campaign brought their former friendship back into the spotlight, but a source says it was a professional collaboration rather than a sign they are best friends again. The reunion matters because it marks a step towards reconnecting after years of distance, while their relationship remains less close than it was during their Disney Channel years.

The campaign recreated imagery from their 2009 film *Princess Protection Program* and their old webcam videos, drawing on nostalgia from their early friendship. Rare Beauty marketing executive Tyra Booker said she proposed the idea in her first week at the company; she reported more than 500 million views across platforms. Gomez attended the opening night of Lovato’s tour in April, and Lovato has said she is glad they can collaborate and reconnect.
