Taylor swift celebrates regaining masters with bestie selena gomez during nyc dinner outing

Girls’ night out. Taylor Swift celebrated regaining the masters to her first six albums by enjoying a lavish dinner outing in NYC with her bestie Selena Gomez. The “Bad Blood” singer and the

“Only Murders in the Building” actress were photographed Saturday night together inside Monkey Bar, a restaurant that was established in 1936 and serves shellfish, steaks, pastas and more.

In the photo shared on X, Swift, 35, was seated across from Gomez, 32, and the women appeared to be engaged in a deep conversation, with the “Cruel Summer” songstress sporting a look of

shock on her face while her BFF stared at her. Monkey Bar posted on its website that it would be closing the bar at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday for a “private event,” however, it’s unclear if that

was due to the presence of the two pop stars. Page Six has reached out to the Monkey Bar for comment but did not immediately hear back. The celebratory outing came one day after Swift

announced on her website that she bought back the masters to her first six albums. “I’m trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow,” she

began in her handwritten letter. EXPLORE MORE “A flashback sequence of all the time I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell this news. All the times I was

thiiiiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through,” the 14-time Grammy winner added. FOLLOW PAGE SIX’S TAYLOR SWIFT LIVE UPDATES FOR THE LATEST NEWS, PHOTOS, FAN

tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found that this is really happening. I really get to say those words. “All of the music I’ve ever made … now belongs… to me.” WANT MORE

Now,” “Red,” “1989” and “Reputation” — in 2019 when his company Ithica Holdings acquired her former label, Big Machine Records. The retired music manager then sold her masters to Shamrock

Capital. At the time, the billionaire pop star claimed “bully” Braun, 43, “stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy.” Sources told Billboard Friday that Swift

bought her masters from Shamrock Capital for around $360 million. Gomez was one of many stars to celebrate her pal’s major move, writing that she was “so proud” on her Instagram Stories.

The “Shake It Off” singer was also shown love from her beau, Travis Kelce, who “liked” Swift’s Instagram post about the big news.
