Selena previously remarked that her friendship with Swift was ‘the best thing we got out of those relationships’ during a KIIS FM UK interview in 2017.
Both ladies looked sensational at the star-studded event.
Selena wowed in a plunging red Oscar de la Renta gown with a floral pattern, a fringe, and a nude under layer.
The stunning halter-neck dress formed into a vine-like fringe towards the bottom, and she paired the outfit with strappy red heels.
Meanwhile Taylor flashed her toned legs in a form-fitting black Versace gown, complete with buttons across her torso.

It was a fantastic night for Swift, who won in multiple categories.
She told the crowd as she accepted the award for Best Pop for Anti-Hero, ‘I love making pop music, I love making pop music videos, I also love making country.
‘I love slinking around different genres and the only reason I’m allowed to do that is because you, the fans, gave me the opportunity to do this.’
She added, ‘One big adventure and it’s all so much to challenge myself to make music that’s different than what I made last and I just love you for it. But I really love making pop music, so thank you so, so, so much.’
Swift won her second award for Song of the Year for Anti-Hero.
‘I want to say, I’m really, really lucky that I get to write songs with one of my best friends in the world, his name is Jack Antonoff,’ she said in her second speech. ‘I’m so lucky I’ve been making music with him since we worked on an album called 1989 – we will continue working together until 2089!’
Swift took home her third award of the evening for Best Direction for directing the video for her hit track Anti-Hero.
She thanked her ‘brilliant collaborators’ in her third speech of the evening, saying that being director ‘is absolutely a team sport.’
Swift won her fourth award for Video of the Year for Anti-Hero.
