This morning, Selena Gomez went from being the most followed person on Instagram to having the best liked photo of all time on the social media platform—and it s hard not to wonder if her beauty prowess is the secret behind her success.
The shot in question shows Gomez holding a classic Coke bottle complete with her own lyrics—“You’re the spark”—printed on the label. Framing the picture? A perfectly matched retro cool manicure. Long, oval, and immaculately polished in matching Coca-Cola red polish, her vintage nails are the stuff of Rat Pack dreams from a bygone Hollywood era.
Coupled with Gomez s well-placed eighth note tattoo and a supernatural mane that calls to mind another highly memorable soda pop campaign girl (see Cindy Crawford’s famously sexy ’90s Pepsi commercial), it s no wonder this snap is garnering so much attention. The not-so-sub subtext? When it comes to touch screen tapping—and a wildly successful selfie—the right manicure is key.
