Selena Gomez brought a lucky charm with her in NYC for her Saturday Night Live appearance: Samuel Krost! Her maybe-boyfriend was right by her side with a group of pals during a fun night out in the city, and they looked cozy as can be! Samuel Krost has been with Selena Gomez, 23, ever since she landed in New York City to prep for her stint as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live on January 23. The hot sales executive joined his rumored girlfriend for a night out on the town January 22, catching dinner with a group of friends and getting snuggly with Selly, as seen in a cute photo posted that same night. Is he going to keep her warm during the brutal blizzard?
Selena’s pal Nate Brown, founder of creative fashion consult company Institute, posted an adorable Instagram on Friday, January 21, that showed him hanging out with Selena, Samuel, and a bunch of other friends. “☄. When the fam is back together. ☄” he captioned the black and white shot of Cully Smoller, Max Feldstein, Raquelle Stevens, Ashley Cook, Courtney Barry, himself, and Megan Puleri, along with Selena and Samuel (who is standing directly behind Selena). Friend Caroline Franklin took the photo.

This isn’t the first time that Samuel and Selena were spotted getting cozy in The City That Never Sleeps. The two were caught having dinner at celeb favorite Nobu with Cully on January 21, according to PEOPLE magazine. Their relationship rumors first started after a very intimate dinner back in November 2015 at NYC’s Cipriani, at which Selena was seen sitting on Samuel’s lap! They teased their relationship again with another hot night at the SLS hotel in Beverly Hills on January 17.
Several of Selena’s friends, including Caroline, Megan, and Cully (who made that amazing rainbow edit), captioned this picture “Shabbat Shalom,” a Hebrew greeting that literally means “peace.” Friday is the day before the Jewish Sabbath, so a greeting of “Shabbat Shalom” is a wish for a peaceful holy day. Perhaps this is Selena’s friends’ coy way of wishing her the best of luck on her big Saturday event? CLICK HERE to buy Selena’s album!
