Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have reunited for a new Rare Beauty blush campaign that spans a friendship of over two decades, featuring throwback photos and the return of a fan-favorite vlog tradition. The collaboration bridges the gap between their early Disney Channel beginnings and their current careers.
Decades of Friendship and Disney History
Gomez marked the partnership on October 29 with an Instagram post that paired campaign images with historical snapshots from their childhood. “Over 25 years of ups and downs in life and friendship and growth, there has always been a constant that has brought me back to you, @ddlovato,” Gomez wrote in the post. The pair first met as child actors before starring together in the 2009 Disney Channel movie “Princess Protection Program.” Their shared musical history includes the 2009 duet “One and the Same,” which became a fan favorite following the film’s release.
