Selena Gomez Latin single rollout

Overview

In early August 2026, pop star Selena Gomez announced a new cumbia‑infused single, “Te Olvido (La La),” recorded with Becky G and producer Benny Blanco. The release was positioned as a lead‑up to the upcoming album Hermoso. The music video, directed by STILLZ and produced by Estevan Oriol, was shot in Los Angeles and featured Chicano cultural imagery, including murals, low‑rider cars, and street parties, with cameos by actor Danny Trejo and skateboarder Paul Rodriguez.

During the production, Mexican influencer Rebeca Coss Guerrero prepared a homemade burrito for Gomez. Gomez shared a video of herself tasting the food, noting she enjoyed the flavor, which prompted social media discussion regarding the cross‑cultural exchange.

Following its release, the collaboration achieved commercial success, debuting at number 3 on Billboard’s Hot Tropical Songs chart, marking Gomez’s first appearance on that specific chart. In an interview on the Zane Lowe Show, Becky G described the collaboration as “incredible” and noted that she performed her own stunt scenes during the video shoot.

The single serves as a preview for the album Hermoso, scheduled for release on August 14, which is expected to include collaborations with artists such as Myke Towers and Mora.
