Fast friends, made full by faith!
Madison Prewett is taking the faith-based world by storm right now, fresh off her final-episode appearance on The Bachelor, and she’s doing it alongside a new pal of hers: none other than worldwide superstar Selena Gomez! It may seem unlikely, but the two women have really clicked over the last few months… and religion has provided the backdrop for it all!

The 24-year-old reality TV alum opened up about the faith-based “foundation” of her friendship with the 27-year-old pop singer and former Disney star. In an interview with Us Weekly, the Alabama native (and huge Auburn fan!) said of her connection to the pop princess (below):
“[Faith] is something that is just a really big part of our friendship. I’m very selective with who I allow to really, like, get really, really close to me. And with those that I really invite into that space, it’s really important to me that we’re pushing each other and encouraging each other in our faith, and just being there for each other on the good days, the bad days and encouraging and praying for each other along the way.”
Interesting!
Of course, the Lose You To Love Me singer has gone through her own evolution of sorts over the past few years, and she’s spoken openly about her own journey to God after some tough times in her early 20s. You’ll recall the Spring Breakers alum has previously spoken on the subject — like back in October 2019, when she told fans:
“I’m literally just laying down and thanking Jesus. He always surprises me and I re-fall in love with Him every single time. In my worst moments, like awful, most painful moments — I never stopped falling to my knees wanting and needing only His love.”
If these two can keep each other on the straight and narrow, and it all works for their friendship, then great! More power to ’em! (As long as they don’t support any of that homophobic B.S.)
Beyond all the religion talk, though, this is quite the come-up for Miz Prewett, isn’t it? After all, she was royally and unforgettably shamed by Peter Weber‘s mom in that BRUTAL Bachelor finale last season, then passed over for the next leading lady gig in favor of elder stateswoman Clare Crawley once Madi’s thing with Weber inevitably fizzled!

Oh, and then coronavirus swept across the world, scuttling Prewett’s plans to quickly capitalize on her 15 minutes of reality fame like all former Bachelor Nation contestants tend to do until the well dries up. But suddenly! Out of nowhere! Here comes a proverbial lifeline, in the form of God and Selena Gomez! Not a bad way to stay relevant, ya know?! …Or are we being too cynical??
