The Weeknd Just Got Rid of a Lyric About Selena at Coachella—Here’s Who He Replaced Her With

stylecaster.com:

Last minute change? The Weeknd’s Selena Gomez dub at Coachella came in the form of a dropped lyric on his song “Party Monster,” which fans recognized for its mention of “Selena” in the past.

The Dawn FM singer noticeably changed the name up on his song during his exhilarating set. While the namesake on “Party Monster” in the line “Like Selena, ass shaped like Selena” actually refers to Mexican singer Selena Quintanilla, many fans throughout the years believed the lyric to be about Selena Gomez herself.

However, in this specific set, The Weeknd changed up the name to Brazilian singer Anitta. “Like Anitta, ass shaped like Anitta,” he sang.  “Party Monster” was written months before the “Save Your Tears” singer got together with Selena.

The song was released in 2016, while the Only Murders in the Building star and the Weeknd were first reported together in January 2017.
