A significant highlight in Selena Gomez’s career comes from winning her very first Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award at the 2025 screeds. The actress had been awarded Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series for her fabulous performance made in the acclaimed series, Only Murders in the Building. This has turned out to be a milestone achievement for Gomez, who has managed to become part and parcel of its success with co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.

Those were, however, the very same reasons why the two, being Martin and Short, missed the occasion-their work schedules and some health issues. Gomez humorously accepted the award on behalf of both stars, entirely thanking them for their chemistry and the collaborative work. Gratitude for being in the company of tremendously gifted people whose talent would battle their people’s acclaim signified giving thanks to the ensemble cast for their sometimes-strenuous work bringing Only Murders to life.

Recognition of Gomez’s achievements at the SAG will come as a reflection of the shift in her much-anticipated career in television and film, among the most well-respected stars on the field. More than this, her winning in such a category goes to show that the industry not only recognizes talent; it acknowledges and brings forth talent blended with the right harmony of other stars’ performance in creating pulse-pounding, audience-holding shows.
