Gomez and Delevingne made several official public appearances together after they were pictured on the Lacma Art + Film Gala red carpet, but nothing was more notable than the BFFs appearing in Taylor Swift's iconic "Bad Blood" music video. The video stars Selena as Asrysn, someone who fights alongside Swift's character (Catastrophe), only to betray her. Delevingne plays the role of Mother Chucker, who is a part of Taylor's army of fighters.

Gomez previously opened up to Billboard about her experience shooting the video with two of her best friends in 2015, saying, "It was just fun. I don't think it even counts for work," Gomez said. "We were there until 4 in the morning, just sitting on the couch, eating In-N-Out burger, talking about boys, and then we'd go and pretend we were killing each other. Good times."

Gomez and Delevingne's longtime, close friendship led many to believe that something more existed between the two at one point. In an interview with Pride Source, the "Lose You to Love Me" singer explained her thoughts on the rumours with her BFF, saying, "Honestly, I loved it. I didn't mind it. Especially because they weren't talking about other people in my life for once, which was wonderful. Honestly, though, she's incredible and very open and she just makes me open. She's so fun and she's just extremely adventurous, and sometimes I just want that in my life, so I didn't mind it. I loved it."

December 2021: Selena Gomez and Cara Delevingne Get Matching Tattoos

December 2021 was a big month for the friends, as not only did their work on "Only Murderers in the Building" start, but they also got matching tattoos to symbolize their friendship. The pair both got watercolor-style flower designs, with Gomez getting it on her upper back and Delevingne placing it on her ribcage. The work was done by Bang Bang Tattoo, a tattoo artist in New York City. Touching on the tattoo, the singer explained on "Live With Kelly and Ryan" the special meaning behind it, saying, "It means a couple of different things. [Delevingne] calls me Rosebud so it's a nickname. And I've always wanted a rose and now I got one, and I love it."

Delevingne briefly touched on working with Gomez on "Only Murders in the Building" on E!'s web series, "While You Were Streaming," telling the outlet, "We never get to see each other as much because we're so busy.

She is brilliant, like one of my favourite actors I've ever worked with."

In a similar fashion, Gomez told ET that working with Delevingne didn't feel like work. "It was so much fun. I mean, we've known each other since we were about 15, so it was just a blast. We had a great time and I felt like it was super organic and she did a fantastic job," she said.
