Selena Gomez and Francia Raísa's Friendship Over the Years

In a March 2018 interview with W magazine, Raísa revealed she met Gomez in 2007 when she was starring in "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" and Gomez was doing "Wizards of Waverly Place." They became friends after attending a charity event together, and Raísa said they instantly bonded over boys.

"At the time I had a boyfriend, and she did, too — I think she was dating Nick [Jonas] — and we were like, 'Oh my God, we're so cute.' And then we broke up with them at the same time. But we just kept running into each other after that and talking about boys," she said. "One day she called me and was like, 'Hey, I don't have any friends. Why don't we ever hang out?' Then we've just been inseparable."
