Selena Gomez is celebrating the new season of her acclaimed TV series with a murderously beautiful way…

The 32-year-old Mexican American actress, singer and entrepreneur’s Rare Beauty is teaming up with Hulu for a cheeky collaboration celebrating the new season of Only Murders in the Building.

 

Selena GomezBeginning this week, fans have been able to shop the Only Murders in the Building makeup set inspired by Gomez’s character, Mabel Mora.

Mabel Mora’s Go-To Duo ($30) pairs Rare Beauty’s Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil in the shade “Delight” with the beauty brand’s bestselling Soft Pinch Liquid Blush available in an exclusive new shade called “Resilience.”

The set is available now at RareBeauty.com and will be available at Sephora starting September 3.

Hulu subscribers who shop the collection and other Rare Beauty products from now until August 31 will also receive a free Mini Puffy Tote Keychain in merlot (with a $50 purchase).

Gomez’s Rare Beauty is one of the most successful brands in the beauty industry, raking in an estimated $350 million last year, and despite rumors of a potential sale, Gomez has no plans of leaving the company.

“I don’t think I’m going anywhere. I am enjoying this a little too much,” Gomez said in April.

The successful beauty brand has made millions off blush alone, but beyond the draw of Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blush and Soft Pinch Liquid Blush, Rare Beauty carries a wide selection of beauty must-haves like the True to Myself Tinted Pressed Finishing Powder, Perfect Strokes Universal Volumizing Mascara and the Find Comfort Collection.

Season 4 of Only Murders in the Building premiered on Tuesday on Hulu. The hit comedy starring Gomez, Martin Short and Steve Martin welcomes a slew of guest stars this season, including Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy and Zach Galifianakis, who play movie versions of Gomez, Martin and Short’s characters, respectively.

Selena Gomez is leaving the building and headed to Hollywood…

Hulu has released a teaser trailer for the fourth season of its acclaimed comedy series Only Murders in the Building, starring the 31-year-old Mexican American actress/singer.

Selena GomezDeclared as the show’s “starriest season yet,” the new season will premiere on August 27.

In the new season, Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Gomez) leave their beloved Arconia and the New York area.

The first trailer explains why the trio will be making the cross-country trip to Hollywood and showcases Charles’ negotiation skills (or lack thereof).

It also reveals Melissa McCarthy among new cast additions, joining returning Only Murders in the Building players Meryl Streep, Jane Lynch, Michael Cyril Creighton and Da’Vine Joy Randolph as well as fellow newcomers Eugene Levy, Eva Longoria, Zach Galifianakis, Molly Shannon, Kumail Nanjiani and Richard Kind.

In conjunction with the trailer release, Hulu has revealed the most detailed Season 4 description to date.

Charles (Martin), Oliver (Short) & Mabel (Gomez) wrestle with the shocking events at the end of season three surrounding Charles’ stunt double & friend Sazz Pataki (Lynch). Questioning whether Sazz or Charles was the intended victim, our trio’s investigation leads them all the way to Los Angeles where a Hollywood studio is readying a film about the Only Murders podcast. As our amateur sleuths race back to New York, they embark on an even more epic journey — traversing their building’s courtyard to delve into the twisted lives of the Arconia’s West Tower residents.

Only Murders in the Building hails from co-creators and writers Martin and John Hoffman. Martin and Hoffman executive produce along with Short, Gomez, Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal.

The series is produced by 20th Television, a part of Disney Television Studios.

Daphne Rubin-Vega has landed a killer role…

The 54-year-old Panamanian-American actress, singer-songwriter, dancer and Broadway star has joined the star-studded cast of Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building.

Daphne Rubin-VegaRubin-Vega is among a roster of new cast additions that includes Richard Kind, Catherine Cohen and Jin Ha.

They’ll appear in recurring roles.

Details regarding the new season’s plot and character descriptions remain under wraps.

But the new episodes will focus on unraveling the murder of Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch), Charles-Haden Savage’s (Steve Martin) mind-bogglingly identical stunt double from his years on the series Brazzos and its 2020 revival.

Disney Television Group President Craig Erwich revealed in a recent interview that the Only Murders In the Building trio: Charles, Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Selena Gomez), will kick off the new season with a trip to Los Angeles before returning to The Arconia in their search of Sazz’s killer.

New additions will also include Molly Shannon, Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis, Desmin Borges, Siena Werber and Lilian Rebelo, with Meryl Streep reprising the Season 3 role of Loretta Durkin.

In the Season 3 finale—following her highly praised performance in Oliver’s Broadway hit Death Rattle Dazzle— Loretta received two offers in productions that would require her to relocate to Los Angeles. Her new beau Oliver is into this idea as it would allow him to visit the City of Angels. Mabel’s new love interest Tobert (Jesse Williams) is also headed west, and surprisingly, she’s also keen on taking a little break from New York.

The Emmy-nominated comedy, produced by 20th Television, is co-created and co-written by Steve Martin and John Hoffman who also executive produce alongside Short, Gomez, Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal.

Rubin-Vega earned a Tony Award nomination for her portrayal of ‘Mimi’ in the original cast of Rent, and another for Anna in the Tropics. She was most recently seen starring in the Signature Theatre’s Night of the Iguana opposite Tim Daly and Lea DeLaria. She starred in the musical Miss You Like Hell at The Public Theatre and in the one-woman show Empanda Loca, which was written for her. She helped adapt the play into the scripted podcast, The Horror of Dolores Roach, which was then adapted into a TV series for Amazon.
