Selena Gomez and Zoe Saldaña coordinated in black ensembles for the BAFTA screening of their queer crime musical Emilia Pérez, which was held at 195 Piccadilly in London on Sunday.

A glimpse at Selena’s shrinking figure in 2024 versus 2023 has certainly sparked rumors she’s hopped aboard the trendy Ozempic train.

The 32-year-old Emmy nominee flaunted substantial cleavage in a pleated Elie Saab gown, featuring ornate sleeve detail, glossy pumps, and Hassanzadeh jewelry selected by stylist Erin Walsh.

Hairstylist Renato Campora coiffed Gomez’s middle-parted low ponytail for the film festivities.

Make-up artist Hung Vanngo fully contoured the certified billionaire’s complexion and applied her Rare Beauty brand’s ‘Gifted’ lipstick and lipliner.

And nail artist Mo Qin applied Selena’s whisper pink manicure.

Gomez stars as Jessi Del Monte, a transgender Mexican cartel leader’s ex-wife, in Jacques Audiard’s musical film hitting select theaters November 1 before streaming November 13 on Netflix.

Emilia Pérez already scored a ‘certified fresh’ 86% critic approval rating (out of 76 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes.

‘I wanted to be a part of this for many reasons,’ the ‘Texican’ pop star said at Deadline’s Contenders London on Saturday.

‘As an actor, you’re so lucky to work with someone like Jacques. And as an individual, I’m so honored to learn from these amazing women. I don’t think we all expected it to do all this, but we’re really grateful. And the experience for me is hopefully a stepping stone into what I’m capable of doing and what I’m willing to do to get there.’

Meanwhile, Zoe (born Zoë Yadira Saldaña Nazario) opted for a black embellished corset top with baggy pleated trousers selected by stylist Petra Flannery.

The half-Dominican, half-Puerto Rican 46-year-old showcased eyeball-shaped chandelier earrings thanks to hairstylist Mara Roszak coiffing her elegant top-bun.

Make-up artist Vera Steimberg applied a smoky eye and a defined brow on Saldaña, who finished off her look with a pink glossy pout.

For her performance as unappreciated lawyer Rita Moro Castro, the Lioness producer-star has impressively topped THR’s list of best supporting actress Oscar contenders.

‘It was important to understand where Rita was coming from and who she really was,’ Zoe said at Deadline’s Contenders London on Saturday.

‘To me, she is a person that doesn’t have the courage to speak for herself. She’s underworked, overlooked, desperate for change, but she wants power, she wants influence, and she wants success. 

‘So understanding that this was a Faustian deal that she was going to immediately take — and never look back — was important to me, because she also goes through a transition. It’s not as obviously accentuated and intense and rich as Emilia’s [transition], but she does really shed this old skin and become a different person by the time Emilia meets her again three years later.’

Backstage at BAFTA, Selena and Saldaña chatted alongside the cast and crew of Emilia Pérez.

Everyone – including Adriana Paz, Camille, Damien Jalet, Virginie Montel, and Clément Ducol – appeared to break into song and dance while promoting the Spanish-language film.

Gomez and the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 actress have clearly grown closer and closer with every film festival appearance together.

The two-time Grammy nominee and Zoe made sure to pose with their castmates Adriana Paz and Karla Sofia Gascón, who were all jointly awarded the Cannes Film Festival’s best actress prize on May 25.
