Selena’s Ki:ller Moves in her New Dance Video Went Viral on Social Media - WATCH (HO)

Selena Gomez went Viral with her latest dance moves during the promotions of her Rare Beauty line

When Selena Gomez started Rare Beauty three years ago, the focus was makeup, but now she is expanding her brand by delving into a new category: body care. The Find Comfort Body Collection launches on Sephora and Rare Beauty’s sites on December 19 (but keen shoppers can grab it before; more on that below).

As Gomez tells ELLE.com over e-mail, expanding had always been the plan: “Deciding to move into body care with the Find Comfort Body Collection was a thoughtful choice for us and something I knew I wanted to do from the start but only when the timing was right,” she says. “We wanted to offer a well-rounded experience, so we started with four key products: hand cream, body lotion, body and hair mist, and an aromatherapy pen. Each product took a different amount of time to develop, making sure they truly represented our brand and delivered a sensory experience in line with the collection’s theme. For us, self-comfort aligns with self-acceptance and feeling good in your own skin without the need for perfect routines. It’s those small moments of comfort that matter and can be different for everyone.”

South Carolina’s Dawn Staley praises Caitlin Clark for ‘lifting up our sport,’ calls her ‘one of the GOATs’

Clark, the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer in men’s and women’s basketball, played her final collegiate game Sunday

Dawn Staley was bent over in tears trying to reflect immediately after her South Carolina Gamecocks won the third NCAA women’s basketball national championship with her in place as head coach.

But as she basked in the confetti falling from the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse ceiling in Cleveland and lifted the national championship trophy, Staley shouted out the Iowa Hawkeyes for an “incredible season” and took time to praise Caitlin Clark for everything she’s done for women’s basketball.

“I want to personally thank Caitlin Clark for lifting up our sport,” Staley said after the 87-75 win over Iowa on Sunday. “She carried a heavy load for our sport, and it is not going to stop here on a collegiate tour. When she’s the No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft, she’s going to lift that league up as well.

“So, Caitlin Clark, if you’re out there, you are one of the GOATs [greatest of all time] of our game, and we appreciate you.”

While South Carolina was certainly one of the biggest storylines all season long in women’s basketball, as they capped their undefeated season to become the 10th national champion to ever accomplish that feat, Clark’s stardom skyrocketed with the Hawkeyes as she rewrote the NCAA record books.

SOUTH CAROLINA CAPS UNDEFEATED SEASON WITH NCAA NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP WIN OVER IOWA

Clark is the all-time leading scorer in both men’s and women’s basketball, passing LSU’s Pete Maravich earlier this season. With her 30 points scored in the loss to the Gamecocks, Clark finished her career with 3,921 points, while averaging 31.7 points per game this season.

And as Staley mentioned, Clark is expected to be the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

“It’s certainly been a special year, and to be honest, after last year I was like, ‘Well, how do we top what we did last year?’ … This year was more special than last year,” Clark said after the game.

Pressure was an understatement for Clark this season as it came well beyond those in Iowa City at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The sports world was tuned into games when she was on the court as they watched the 30-foot three-pointers fall through the hoop with ease and the crisp passes to her teammates.

Clark wasn’t able to hoist the NCAA title trophy in the end, though, despite the fantastic season the Hawkeyes had. They started off really well, going on a 10-0 run to begin the game, and Clark finished the first quarter with 18 points.

However, she cooled off after that as South Carolina’s Raven Johnson played fantastic defense, holding her to 5-of-20 shooting.

Still, the loss for Clark and the Hawkeyes doesn’t take away how successful a season it was and personally how great her career has been.

Staley recognizes that, and the WNBA will bear witness to her greatness next.
