'Martin's texting Meryl'
In a video circulating on X, it appears that Selena Gomez caught her Only Murders in the Building co-star Martin Short texting Meryl Streep while sitting in a row together during the ceremony.
Selena looks over to Martin, who is beaming at his phone, before turning to her fiancé, Benny Blanco, and seemingly mouthing, "Marty's texting Meryl".
Martin and Meryl, who play on-screen lovers in Only Murders in the Building, are rumoured to be dating in real life, despite Martin's rep telling The Messenger in January last year that the actors "are just very good friends, nothing more".

Jake Gyllenhaal makes rare appearance with his girlfriend
It was date night for Jake Gyllenhaal, who stepped out with his girlfriend, model Jeanne Cadieu. The couple looked loved up as they posed for photos on the red carpet, with Jake holding his girlfriend's waist while donning a classic Prada suit. Meanwhile, Jeanne looked stunning in a pale-pink Schiaparelli gown, accessorised with a gold clutch.
Jake, who received his first Emmy nomination this year for his performance in Presumed Innocent, has been romantically linked to Jeanne since 2018, although the pair have kept their relationship out of the limelight. The couple made their red carpet debut in September 2021 at the New York Film Festival premiere of The Lost Daughter, which was directed by Jake's sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal.
