Selena Gomez, known for her authenticity and unfiltered glimpses into her life, has done it again! This time, she’s giving us a peek at what could be the most genuine I-woke-up-like-this moment ever, and we’re living for it!
On April 11, Gomez shared a throwback photo on Instagram, showcasing her and her bestie’s phenomenal bedhead game [1]. The caption hilariously asked, “What do we do during our sleep if this results? I thought I never moved.. love you, bestie.” The pair donned oversized wolf T-shirts, with Gomez in black and her friend in blue, as their hair exploded in a glorious mix of frizz, waves, and – let’s admit it – a lot of tangles. Selena’s longer locks made her bedhead even more impressive than her friend’s.
Selenators couldn’t help but flock to the comments, reacting with laughter and praise for the candid snap. One fan even referenced the iconic Crazy Hat Song from Wizards of Waverly Place, commenting, “Overslept hair unsightly.” For those not in the know, the Disney Channel show featured Alex Russo (played by Gomez) and her best friend Harper singing this chant whenever they came across an unusual hat.
The song’s catchy lyrics go: “What’s that? A hat? Crazy, funky, junky hat. Overslept, hair unsightly. Trying to look like Keira Knightley. We’ve been there; we’ve done that. We see right through your funky hat.” Just last year, Gomez and Jennifer Stone, who played Harper, delighted fans by reuniting and performing the chant for Selena’s TikTok followers.
Luckily, Selena didn’t reach for a hat to hide her tousled tresses. If she had, we wouldn’t have been able to revel in the beauty of her magnificent bedhead. Thanks to Selena, the “Bedhead Hairstyle” is gaining some serious street cred [2]!
