An A-list celebrity caused chaos outside a shop on Oxford Street after stunned fans suddenly realised who she was – with huge crowds quickly gathering for photos and autographs during her time in the UK
Shoppers were left stunned after spotting an A-list celebrity casually strolling past a bustling shop on Oxford Street. Within moments, massive crowds swarmed around the actress and singer as thrilled fans desperately tried to snap pictures and secure autographs while she walked through the city.
One astonished fan, known as @tanulyaodessa on Instagram, revealed they initially had no clue why people were suddenly shrieking outside the store. They explained: “I was just walking in London when I noticed a huge crowd outside a shop. Everyone was screaming and I had absolutely no idea what was happening.
“I decided to cross the road to see who it was.” Seconds later, they discovered they had come face-to-face with none other than Selena Gomez.
The fan added: “Meeting Selena Gomez in London up close. She is literally an angel!”
The star seemed delighted to pause for admirers, warmly greeting people and striking poses for selfies as the throngs rapidly expanded around her. Selena is presently in the UK while shooting series six of Only Murders in the Building following the conclusion of the fifth series last year.
The actress has been sharing glimpses of her London visit online, posting images of iconic landmarks, restaurant outings and tourist attractions across London.
On her Instagram Story, Selena shared a photograph of Palace of Westminster alongside the caption: “I adore London.”
She also posted a photo of a classic Sunday roast, playfully requesting that her husband, Benny Blanco, have the dish ready for her upon her return home.
Since its debut in 2021, Only Murders in the Building – which also features comedy icons Steve Martin and Martin Short – has garnered an enormous following amongst viewers.
The acclaimed mystery-comedy series has accumulated a wealth of awards and nominations, with audiences celebrating both its wit and unexpected plot twists.
One viewer commented online: “The cast and writing is what makes this show so special.”
Another added: “It’s just a fun show that you can binge over a few days.”
A third said: “We all know that Steve Martin and Martin Short can combine to produce comedy gold, but who could have predicted that Steve Martin and Selena Gomez would have such incredible chemistry?
“Add in the wonderful Nathan Lane and now Sting and after just three episodes, I am completely hooked.”
