Selena Gomez, I will not calm down—no matter how many times you (or Taylor Swift) ask me to via song.
The 30-year-old just released a teaser of the music video for Calm Down, her new collaboration with Nigerian Afrobeats star Rema, which will be released on Thursday, August 25, at midnight. In the 12-second clip, which Gomez posted to TikTok on August 24, she wears a denim corset, pleated brown trousers, and gold hoops while leaning up against a vintage Porsche. She wears her waist-length hair wavy and parted in the center, and is it just me or is this whole look straight out of 2002? It’s giving Selena From the Block.

Gomez has been hinting at the project—which is a remix of a song off Rema’s debut album—on social media, sharing videos of herself inside the recording studio. It’s too soon to tell if she’s also working on any follow-ups to Rare, her 2020 studio album, or Revelación, her 2021 Spanish-language EP.
The actor-singer-producer has had a busy summer promoting Only Murders in the Building, which just aired its second-season finale earlier this week, as well as her latest Rare Beauty collection. Gomez also celebrated her 30th birthday (with two stunning gowns) and jetted off to the Amalfi Coast for a quick vacation, yacht included. Little did we know, somewhere in the midst of such a busy schedule she’d been filming a music video too.
Next up: Gomez is nominated for an Emmy for producing Only Murders in the Building, alongside her costars Martin Short and Steve Martin, who also served as executive producers. The ceremony takes place on September 12. TBD if she’ll go full denim à la Britney and Justin at the 2001 VMAs, but here’s hoping.
