After the Golden Globes, Selena Gomez was spotted holding hands with Zedd — so, of course since Selena Gomez is a celebrity, this led to some major romance rumors in tabloids. Personally, I was excited at the thought of Selena Gomez dating Zedd: not only would it be great that she's moving on from Justin Bieber, but he seems infinitely more mature than the Biebs. But let's not get ahead of ourselves, because guess what? Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez reunited on Thursday night, according to TMZ. The on-again/off-again couple of the century got dinner together at Mastro's Steakhouse in Beverly Hills.
While it could have been a casual meet-up, reportedly they were seen holding hands. Jeez, Gomez sure is a fan of hand-holding, huh?
OK, OK, I'm being slightly sarcastic, since that's pretty innocent. But still, I think we can assume this means she and Zedd are just friends. Same goes for J. Biebs — or at least I sure hope so! After all, a few months ago she said has "so much respect and love" for Bieber. I'm not against them being on amicable terms, but please, Selena, don't get back together with him. Please! I don't think the world can take any more Jelena dating drama.
While it feels like a stretch to call Selena-Justin-Zedd a love triangle (it all seems pretty platonic), let's compare Zedd and Bieber anyway. Just to be clear about which hand-holder's has got the upper hand here.
Maturity Level
Zedd
Sure, age is just a number. But at age 25, I'd like to think Zedd is way more mature than the Biebs. He's gotta be.
Bieber
At age 20, I sometimes forget he's not actually 12. All of Bieber's antics in the past year make me really hope he grows up soon.
Humility Level
Zedd
He's flattered and grateful to win awards. He doesn't seem too full of himself at all. Especially compared to...
Bieber
This photo speaks for itself. He's obviously referring to those Photoshop claims surrounding his Calvin Klein shoot.
Shirtlessness Level
Zedd
OK, maybe this isn't a legit category. But I appreciate the fact that Zedd wears shirts — and nice plaid ones!
Bieber
An occasional shirtless shot, fine. But constantly? Come on.
Talent Level
Zedd
I'd rather listen to "Clarity" a million times than any of Bieber's anthems. Zedd produces music, whereas Bieber sings about what a great boyfriend he would be. Yawn.
Bieber
Because how is "swag, swag, swag on you / chillin' by the fire while we're eating fondue" an acceptable lyric? I'm still not over it.
I don't know about you, but I think it's clear who's the better choice! Of course, it's ultimately up to Selena. But hopefully this comparison helps make the decision a bit easier.
