While en route to the premiere of her new Disney series 'Wizards Beyond Waverly Place,' the sequel to the classic Disney Channel show that launched Gomez' career, 'Wizards of Waverly Place.'

Selena stopped at a mailbox and cast her ballot. In a TikTok video shared on her profile set to Chappell Roan's 'HOT TO GO!,' she is seen being driven to the premiere with an 'Official Election Mail' envelope in hand. She sings, "I can't go to the premiere without voting," and proceeds to drop her ballot in the mailbox, underscoring her commitment to civic duty.

After voting, Selena continued to the premiere, dazzling in a sophisticated red, shimmering gown with a side slit, her hair flowing elegantly over her shoulders. On the red carpet, she reunited with former castmates David Henrie and Maria Canals-Barrera. She also met with new cast members Janice Brown, Taylor Cora, Alkaio Thiele, Mimi Gianopulos, and Max Matenko who were also present at the event. Guests walked along a themed carpet resembling scenes from the series, even entering through the iconic magic window that, in the original show, transported characters to different realms.
