Stefanie Scott Clears Up Rumors Regarding Her and Selena Gomez

Stefanie Scott has decided to speak out on the recent rumors that she threw shade at former Disney Channel star, Selena Gomez. Stefanie did an interview with Buzzfeed earlier this month that garnered a little attention when Stefanie began to talk about her post Disney career.

It was this comment, “It’s not that I wouldn’t do projects that are edgy, but I think the project has to have purpose and meaning and tell a real story and not just be me topless at spring break smoking. I really think the universe worked it all out for me … because I got to show emotions instead of boobs.” that began to stir the rumor mill.

Many people speculated that the comment was aimed at Selena Gomez, who’s post Disney career included her “edgy” film, Spring Breakers, which had characters “topless at spring break smoking”.

However, today, June 18, Stefanie took to her Twitter to set the record straight. Stefanie told her fans “I would never throw shade at anyone, especially Selena Gomez. I’m a huge fan of Selena and her work and have always been inspired by her and her authenticity.” You can read the full statement in our gallery.
