Selena Gomez didn't demur when talking to Glamour UKabout her most “memorable” beauty disaster. The singer opened up about how tanning lotion backfired on her at the 2018 Met Gala.Gomez wore
a light Coach pink dress to the event.
“While I was getting ready for the Met Gala a few years ago, we put on a bit of tanning lotion and it looked beautiful, but as the night went on it kept getting darker and darker,” she said. “When I sat down [inside the event], I saw a photo of myself, and it looked completely orange. And here I am at this prestigious event. My first thought was, ‘I have to get out of here!’”
During the night of the Met Gala, she turned it into a good-humored moment on her Instagram, sharing security footage of her leaving the event. “Me when I saw my pictures from MET ??♀️,” she captioned it.
Gomez explained the post to Vogue: “I had my security take a video of me because my first reaction was just to get the hell out of there,” she said. "I'm literally just hauling ass to get to my car.”
