Loved Up: Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez Attend Mutual Pal’s Birthday Party [Video]


Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are captured on video and in photographs attending the birthday party of videographer and mutual friend, Alfredo Flores, in Los Angeles on Monday. The news will heat up speculation that Jelena has reunited, after recent romantic social media posts from the pair.

Update: Citing a source, E! News are reporting the couple are trying to “patch things up.”

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez attended the birthday bash of mutual pal and videographer Alfredo Flores at the Bootsy Bellows club in West Hollywood, Los Angeles on Monday night.

The on-again, off-again couple were captured on video enjoying each other’s company and others’ in what appears to have been a happy celebration for Flores’ 26th.

And according to TMZ, Selena spent time riding in Justin’s Can-Am Spyder three-wheeler in Malibu hours before the bash.

Flores – who is of American and Puerto-Rican heritage – featured in Bieber’s 2013 Believe documentary and is referred to by Justin as his “brother” and vice versa.

Yesterday, Flores posted messages and snaps from his big day to his Twitter and Instagram accounts.

One of which revealed a bashful Selena, while another showed the Biebs with his boys.

In an Instavid of the party, Justin — who wore a loose maroon top, aviators and a bright blue Fedora — is first seen sitting while Selena stands behind him.

The actress-singer is seen wearing a white, tight-fitting dress and clearly enjoying herself as another guest waving a sparkler brings Flores’ birthday cake in.

Bieber then stands up to join the fun with a smiling Gomez by his side.

Other friends at the party included Justin’s DUI co-arrestee, Khalil Sharieff, aspiring rapper Xavier Smith also known as Lil Za, choreographer Nick DeMoura, Kelly Osbourne, Pierre Balian and Bieber’s former bodyguard Kenny Hamilton.

For days fans and media have speculated that the former sweethearts appear to be reuniting – or at the very least – at ease with each other after a reported parting of the ways in April.

It seems Justin and Selena have re-established contact at what is likely a tough time for the Canadian, following the exploitative release of videos showing Bieber thoughtlessly using the N-word as a child/young teen.

The “Heartbreaker” singer has since apologized. Twice.

Given the observable reality of Bieber’s life as a 20-year-old six years later — not to mention typical inappropriateness of boys from 12-19 — it’s apparent his cultural awareness opened up as he matured, formed friendships with African Americans and toured the world.

A very blurry picture of Selena and another with Flores was posted to his Instagram account late Monday.

This latest sighting of Bieber and Gomez together comes after Justin’s recently posted then deleted Instagram photo of himself and Selena last Wednesday.

The black and white shot was captioned: “Our love is Unconditional.”

It showed Selena cradling Justin’s head and appeared to be a comment on the way the pair have dealt with the N-word backlash.

Together.

More recently, Selena posted an Instagram video on Sunday of herself reciting the lyrics to Brit goth band The Cure’s 1989 hit Lovesong.”

In the clip, the brunette says: “I will always love you, whatever words I say…I will always love you,” at which point she giggles.

Gomez captioned the visual, “Poems with @steviemackey,” which is a reference to her vocal coach. But it’s a timely one.

Currently, some gossip sites are reporting or repeating “fanfic type quotes” regarding Jelena from “sources.”

Without mentioning names we’re not citing them, but suffice it to say if E! News haven’t got source quotes yet, the veracity of what’s being peddled is doubtful.

But, who even knows if the couple’s apparent separation after the Coachella drama was as final as reported?

Bieber and Gomez’s on-off four-year history shows that with these two, it’s never really over.

Update:

E! News is now reporting an insider at the nightclub overheard Bieber and Gomez telling people they were back together as a couple.

They were holding hands and showed some other PDA, but no over-the-top making out or kissing. They were together the whole night and left together at the end of the party.

While another source told the outlet revealed, “He [Bieber] has been trying to patch things up with Selena…He does love her.”

It’s always worth waiting for the real quotes.
