Selena continued, “I played her this song and I played it with her mom and dad, and I showed her the video. Her mom and Taylor started crying. It wasn’t because the song was emotional, it was just because the first thing they said to me was, ‘We’re so happy that you’re here. After seeing all of that, this is such a cool moment.’ That’s a huge thing for me.”
