What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad with
Clevver News, and leave it to fans to sniff
out the hottest tea as many are certain that
James Charles and Selena Gomez are set to
collaborate following the release of her Rare
Beauty line.
While James Charles teasing a brand new collaboration
is a pretty common occurrence, it’s not
every day that one of the biggest pop stars
on the planet agrees to partake in a new beauty
collaboration.
So when fans suspected that James’ next
collaboration could very well be with Selena
Gomez, the Internet went WILD with theories
to prove that it could, in fact, be true.
Ok, so before we get ahead of ourselves, I
should be clear that a James and Selena collaboration
is JUST a rumor as of now… but that doesn’t
mean we can’t get excited, right?!
One of the main reasons why many are convinced
that Selena could be on James’ list of collaborators,
is because her Rare Beauty line will be launching
in Sephora stores on September 3rd, which
just so happens to be perfectly timed for
some serious promo.
The speculation started over this tweet James
posted last Friday that read, “I just filmed
a collab that you guys will NEVER see coming…”
This sparked immediate speculation as to who
James is talking about, as many guesses came
flooding in including Ariana Grande, a Sister
Squad reunion, but mostly Selena Gomez.
James continued to add fuel to the fire, tweeting
on Tuesday, QUOTE, “I don’t know if you
guys are ready for the videos we have coming
up… omfg.”
One fan responded back saying, “Is it a
collab with @selenagomez since her new beauty
brand @rarebeauty is about to drop??”
Shortly after posting that tweet, James revealed
that fans can also expect a new house tour
and many surprise guests, to which fans continued
to speculate that Selena would be among the
surprise guests.
One fan tweeted back, “It better be Selena
Gomez pleaseeeee lord.”
As if the rumors weren’t already exciting
enough, Instagram account Pop Faction revealed
that “an insider” confirmed that James
and Selena were “in talks” to release
a video that features all of her Rare Beauty
products.
And if you really think about it, Selena’s
explanation of Rare Beauty seems to fit the
mold of James’ fanbase, as well as being
inclusive to all races and genders.
In a video she shared when she first announced
Rare Beauty, Selena said QUOTE, “Rare Beauty
isn’t about how other people see you.
It’s about how you see yourself.
It’s not just a brand.
It’s going to be a lifestyle.
I want girls and boys and men and women to
feel comfortable.”
Although neither James nor Selena have addressed
the rumors, James did warn fans to stop assuming
things in a new tweet posted yesterday.
He responded to a fan who asked if this was
the big collab he’s been trying to do for
two years, saying, “No lol, that's coming
soon.
I'm getting SO many angry tweets that today's
video wasn't a collab with *insert celebrity
name here*... y'all need to be patient and
shouldn't assume anything…”
That said, some fans are especially convinced
that James is set to collab with Ariana after
noticing that he’s been “liking” edits
that fans made involving Ariana.
It looks like we’re just gonna have to wait
to find out, but James’ beauty collabs haven’t
disappointed yet, so regardless, we’re in
for quite a treat!

collab down here in the comments… too good
to be true, or are fans onto something?
