Taylor Swift Selena Gomez Reunion in NYC: Girls' Night Out Details
Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez dined at Monkey Bar in NYC after Taylor bought her masters, celebrating a huge career milestone together
Taylor Swift celebrated her huge career milestone on a girlsâ night out with BFF Selena Gomez in New York City.
The longtime friends dined together at the swanky Monkey Bar in Midtown Manhattan on Saturday, May 31, while Taylorâs boyfriend Travis Kelce was in Kansas City for the annual Big Slick charity live show benefiting pediatric cancer research, according to pictures obtained by Deuxmoi.
The Monkey Bar is connected to the historic Hotel ElysĂŠe, and originally opened in the 1930s as a piano bar for ritzy guests. The eatery got its name from a hand-painted wraparound mural of monkeys by caricaturist Charlie Vella in the 1950s.
Swift, 35, had a lot to celebrate with Gomez, 32, since she announced on Friday, May 30, that sheâd purchased the rights to her master recordings. For the past several years, Swift has spent considerable effort re-recording her first six albums because she didnât own the original recorded versions.

Swiftâs masters became a point of contention when music impresario Scooter Braun purchased her former record label Big Machine Records in 2019, thus giving him control of the six albums she recorded for the label. A highly-publicized feud between Swift and Braun developed before Braun eventually sold off her master recordings to Shamrock Capital for a reported $300 million in 2020.
On Friday, Swift stunned fans by announcing in an open letter that sheâd reached an unexpected agreement with Shamrock to gain control of her masters.
âIâm trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow. As a flashback sequence of all the times I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell you this news,â she wrote.

âIâve been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found out that this is really happening,â Swift revealed. âI really get to say these words: All of the music Iâve ever made⌠now belongs⌠to me.â
Swift was supported by many of her famous friends and fans following the announcement, including her boyfriend Kelce and close pal Gomez.

âFull transparency: I havenât even re-recorded a quarter of it,â Swift wrote in her letter to fans. âThe Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it. All that defiance, that longing to be understood while feeling purposefully misunderstood, that desperate hope, that shame-born snarl and mischief.â
Swift continued, âTo be perfectly honest, itâs the one album in those first six that I thought couldnât be improved upon by redoing it. Not the music or photos or videos. So, I kept putting it off. There will be a time (if youâre into the idea) for unreleased vault tracks from that album to hatch.â
