Selena Gomez‘s reaction to Chris Brown’s MTV VMA nomination being read out at last night’s (September 12) ceremony has gone viral on Twitter.The singer appeared less than impressed by Brown’s nomination in the Best R&B category for his feature on Chlöe’s ‘How Does It Feel’.

In a clip circulating online, Gomez is seen scrunching her nose when Brown’s nomination comes up.Gomez won the award for Best Afrobeats at the ceremony thanks to her feature on Rema’s ‘Calm Down’.

Brown, however, lost to SZA’s ‘Shirt’.In 2009 Brown pleaded guilty to assaulting his ex-girlfriend Rihanna. More recently, in 2021, Brown was reportedly under police investigation over the alleged battery of a woman, charges that were later dropped due to “insufficient evidence”.Views of Gomez’s reaction have surpassed 11million on Pop Base‘s post of the clip in question.
