Selena Gomez is an A-lister with many famous friends from the obvious Taylor Swift to Friends icon Jennifer Aniston. However, unlike most celebs, Gomez shares tons of pictures of her non-famous friends too – to the point where some of them have gotten hundreds of thousands of followers just from Gomez’s tags alone who also, through her connections, have become socialists in the Hollywood scene. Here are their names:

Courtney Lopez

Selena has often called Courtney her #1 and even got that number tattooed together. No surprise then, Courtney made Sel her maid of honour at her wedding. Courtney has her own social media company. They are often seen vacationing together along with her other friends.

Raquelle Stevens

If Courtney is her #1 – I think it would be safe to assume that Raquelle is her #2. She is constantly seen travelling alone with Raquelle – from Italy to Kenya. Recently, Selena, Courtney and her other friend Ashley were on her podcast where they discussed their friendship.

Ashley Cook 

Ashley is Selena’s first friend in LA and likely her longest friend. They met when Selena was 15. Ashley was even Selena’s assistant at one point! Now, she works in real estate. Selena has mentioned that their friendship isn’t as smooth as everyone else’s and that they fight a lot but only because it’s a part of their love language as they respect each other but have different opinions a lot of the times.

Theresa Marie Mingus.

Theresa is a bit of a wild card. Although she is not part of the Courtney-Raquelle-Ashley tribe, she is definitely one of Sel’s closest friends. Theresa was actually her former executive assistant but has now turned into a businesswoman forming her own line of swimsuit named KRAHS, a swim line for all body types, where Selena even modeled and promoted it.

Caroline and Connor Franklin

These sisters, although 6 years apart, are very close friends with Selena. They are seen celebrating her RARE album release, at birthday parties, and even helped modeled Sel’s Coach handbags. Oh – and Connar Franklin is also dating singer Aaron Carpenter.
