The 31-year-old star left a confusing comment on a fan-shared snap of Taylor and her suite crew from Sunday's Super Bowl.

The photo featured the 34-year-old pop star alongside pals Blake Lively, Lana Del Rey, Keleigh Teller, Ice Spice, and more.

Below the post captioned "@taylorswift with her friends at the Super Bowl," Selena commented a crying emoji followed by a heart.

The combination left fans pretty confused, with some wondering whether the Only Murders in the Building actor was upset that she wasn't included or simply unable to make it.

Selena hasn't been one to hide her feelings – especially on social media – so it's possible that she was indeed admitting that she felt left out.

However, earlier reports have also suggested that the Single Soon artist has been invited to Kansas City Chiefs games in the past but turned down the offers.

Was Selena Gomez excluded from Taylor Swift's Super Bowl suite?

A source told Page Six in October 2023 that Selena had turned down multiple invites to join Taylor and her friends at various Chiefs games, reportedly because the Disney Channel alum wanted to avoid the "media frenzy."

However, the report's allegations that Selena didn't approve of the Grammy winner's whirlwind romance with Travis were later refuted, so the invitation claims could be false as well. Still, with the long-time friends having hung out several times between games, it seems more than plausible she would've gotten an invite at some point.

The 34-year-old Super Bowl champ even liked an IG post of Selena and her new boyfriend, Benny Blanco, back in January, further suggesting Sel's on good terms with the couple and likely wouldn't have been intentionally excluded from the big game if she had wanted to join.

With over a decade of friendship under their belts, it's safe to say Selena and Taylor will be able to weather the storm – if there even is one, of course.
