Taylor Swift & Selena Gomez's BFF Status On The Rocks: Justin Bieber To Blame
March 21 2014, Published 6:59 a.m. ET
Selena Gomez gained a boyfriend when she took troubled star Justin Bieber back, but a source close to the "Come & Get It" singer exclusively tells RadarOnline.com she lost a best friend.
Gomez has been long-time gal pals with Taylor Swift — who has stuck by her BFF through the on-again-off-again relationship with Bieber — but insiders reveal the "Red" singer has finally had enough and can't stand by Gomez any longer if she stays with the Canadian pop star.
"Taylor loves Selena and they get along super well, but it's hard for her to watch her best friend keep going back to Justin when she knows it's the worst thing for her," the source told Radar.
"She feels like maybe Selena needs tough love. She thinks Justin is disgusting and has basically told Selena she can't support their relationship and if she gets back with him their friendship will probably never be the same."

Gomez, 21, flew to reunite with the egg-throwing singer the next day in Texas, sharing breakfast and then later publishing a steamy dance session the two shared.
"Taylor may not have the best reputation with her dating life but at least she doesn't keep going back to the same loser over and over again like Selena does," the source said.
"Selena's parents and friends can't stand Justin, but for some reason she just doesn't care. She's blinded by him and not realizing what and who she's losing."
