Selena Gomez Kills It On ‘Rudderless’ Red Carpet Amid Justin Bieber ‘Split’ Talk


Selena Gomez was an absolute vision in red at the screening of her latest film Rudderless at the Vista Theater on Tuesday in Los Angeles, amid speculation that she has split from on-off boyfriend Justin Bieber.

But the 22-year-old was all smiles last night as she turned up the heat in a smoking Dior mini-A-line dress with a killer cleavage and black heels to walk the red carpet.

Selena completed her stunning look with drop earrings and styled her hair in a classic bun.

The starlet was joined on the carpet by first-time director and acclaimed actor William H. Macy and his wife, actress Felicity Huffman. Both older stars also star in the film alongside Billy Crudup, Laurence Fishburne, Anton Yelchin, Jamie Chung among others.

Just before the screening, Bieber’s on-off girlfriend expressed her pride in Rudderless in an Instagram message to her fans.

“I genuinely feel cheesy sometimes promoting certain projects but this one… I’m not in a whole lot of but I can’t even begin to express how beautiful this movie is. And every single person in it. Parents, peeps -this one is absolutely touching. SO proud of Bill Macy! Check it out. #RUDDERLESS,” Selena gushed happily.

After stepping into more adult film fare with last year’s Spring Breakers with James Franco and Getaway with Ethan Hawker, Rudderless is a chance for the actress-singer to expand her chops.

Selena plays the minor role of Kate, ex-girlfriend of student Josh Manning, who is gunned down in a mass shooting. His father (Crudup) eventually finds healing through bringing his son’s unreleased songs to life with a local band.

“It’s a film of redemption,” Macy previously told CraveOnline, Mail Online reports. “Billy Crudup is so winning, you really want him to succeed.”

With new management, a new record deal and her latest movie to promote, career-wise, Selena is stepping it up. It’s on the personal side of things that things seem messier.

The Disney alum was supposedly angered by Justin taking supermodel pal Kendall Jenner to dinner last Tuesday, while all three were in town for Paris Fashion Week.

The day after, Selena flew home solo to Los Angeles. Hours later, she unfollowed Justin on Instagram after posting two cryptic tweets. She wrote, “Sometimes we think we aren’t good enough. But then I realize when I think I’m alone I have God,” adding, “We have to learn the hard way sometimes.”

A fallout amid claims of flirting between Justin, Kendall and her sister, Kylie, while they partied with Selena at the Coachella Festival in April is supposedly the root of alleged bad blood. Neither Justin or Selena have commented on recent claims that they have split up and which may be false.

On Sunday, the Canadian singer Instagrammed a romantic kissing pic of the couple taken during their Caribbean trip on Sunday.

But, it’s possible Selena may be moving on — at least location-wise.

Speaking to E! from the Four Seasons Beverly Hills Hotel for a Rudderless presser before the screening, the Latina revealed she is being urged to move to New York City.

“I’ve always said that I want to have a love affair and live there,” Selena explained, adding that one of her BFF’s, Taylor Swift, is trying to convince her to switch zipcodes.

“Taylor has been begging me to live there,” Gomez adds. “She’s like, ‘It’s the best decision I’ve ever made.’ Everyone always says I’m more New York when they meet me so maybe it would be good for me. I don’t spend enough time there.”

Of Paris Fashion Week, the exotic beauty had no major revelations, but said, “It was my first time at any Fashion Week. It was like being thrown in the fire.”

“You’re in the middle of all of it, and it was towards the end so it’s pretty stressful,” Selena added.”I wanted to take pictures of everything. I was like, ‘I want this one and this one and I want that one!'”

Rudderless was first shown at the Sundance Film Festival back in January. It opens in US theaters and becomes available on VOD on October 17.

As for the Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez show, that one may run and run.
