Selena and Demi's Disney reunion

· Fact-checked before it aired. Unconfirmed claims from this segment are not shown.

Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato reunited for Rare Beauty's "Still Making Each Other Blush" campaign. It includes a blush duo and marks one of the first times fans have seen them together in years. I didn't check the replies' remarks about their looks, which are opinion.

A24's three-hour Elizabeth Holmes documentary, directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, is at about $50M domestic after a $19.5M second weekend. World of Reel calls it the third non-concert documentary to reach that mark. I found that from one source only, and the figure is "around" $50M.

The Gomez and Lovato reunion is a Rare Beauty campaign. I didn't verify the "vlog" format specifically.

The campaign is a nostalgic nod to their 2009 Disney Channel movie "Princess Protection Program". They posed in gowns and crowns. I didn't verify that it recreates the poster exactly.
