Selena Gomez Jokes About Marrying Bill Murray at Cannes Film Festival

In a playful social media moment, singer Selena Gomez sparked a wave of amusement online. Following her red carpet appearance at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival in 2019, Gomez took to Instagram to share a series of photos, including one with her co-star Bill Murray. In the caption, she wrote, “By the way, Bill Murray and I are getting married.”

This lighthearted announcement sent fans into a frenzy, with many wondering if it was a legitimate declaration or a playful joke. Given the significant age difference (Murray was 68 at the time) and the lack of any previous romantic connection, most outlets reported it as a humorous remark.

Selena Gomez and Bill Murray co-starred in the Jim Jarmusch zombie comedy film “The Dead Don’t Die,” which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. Their on-screen chemistry and playful interactions on the red carpet likely fueled the lighthearted social media post.

So, while the internet buzzed about a potential Gomez-Murray union, it was all in good fun. There has been no further indication of a romantic connection, and the comment was likely intended as a humorous anecdote for fans.
