During the segment, she opened up about “a funny story about a little self-tanner.”

“For the Met Gala, I was getting ready and we wanted to add some color. So [I] put on some of this tanning lotion and it looked really beautiful and very even,” she said.

“As the evening kept going on it was getting a little darker and darker,” she continued, adding that she “didn’t notice” how deep the tan was getting.

“I’m at the Met Gala — basically one of the most prestige, beautiful events and I’m walking trying to look all beautiful…I look at a photo of myself when I sit down and I am completely orange,” she said with a laugh.

“I was like, ‘This is going to be terrible because I’m going to get eaten alive about this.’”

“So I had my security take a video of me, because my first reaction was just to get the hell out of there. And so I’m running to my car. I’m literally just hauling ass to my car and then gonna put it online. I was saying this is my reaction after seeing my Met Gala photos.”

Regardless, Selena Gomez has plenty to be proud of – including a massive new streaming feat!
