Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato Reunite at Tour Opening

Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have given longtime fans a moment many thought might never happen: a warm, very public reunion after years of distance.

On April 13, 2026, Gomez showed up to support Lovato at the opening night of her It’s Not That Deep Tour at Orlando’s Kia Center. It marked the first time the former Disney Channel stars had been seen interacting publicly in nearly a decade, and the moment quickly became the night’s defining headline.

Gomez shared a black-and-white photo to her Instagram Stories capturing the two embracing backstage. The image was simple but carried weight, signaling a clear shift from years of perceived separation. Fans inside the arena also spotted Gomez in the crowd, where she appeared fully engaged—wearing tour merchandise, singing along, and cheering throughout the set.

After the show, Gomez posted a short but emphatic reaction: she called it “one of the best shows” she had seen and singled out Lovato’s vocals as particularly impressive.

While the reunion drew the most attention, Lovato’s tour opener was structured to deliver multiple high-impact moments. One of the most notable was a surprise appearance by Joe Jonas. The two performed “This Is Me” and “On the Line,” directly tapping into Camp Rock nostalgia and prompting a strong audience response from fans who have followed their careers since the late 2000s.

Lovato also used the night to introduce new material. A previously unheard track titled “Lowrise Jeans” made its live debut and is scheduled for official release later this week. The song is part of her ninth studio album, It’s Not That Deep, which she has described as reflecting a more settled and positive phase in her life.

The tour itself is relatively concise, spanning 18 North American cities and wrapping up in late May. Upcoming stops include Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Toronto, Boston, and New York, with major arena venues booked throughout.
