The Weeknd dropped off an EP just a few days ago titled My Dear Melancholy. It was packed with six tracks, a couple features from Gesaffelstein, and one lyrical reference that has stood out the most from his track "Call Out My Name" - as it's in reference to his ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez.
I said I didn't feel nothing, baby, but I lied
I almost cut a piece of myself for your life
Guess I was just another pit stop
Til you made up your mind
You just wasted my time
After the track came out - suggesting that he was set to give Selena his kidney - a source close to the singer said that it wasn't going down like that at all.
“It’s just a lyric and he knew it would strum up attention and that people would interpret it exactly as they have, but he was never actually going to donate his kidney to Selena,” the source told Entertainment Tonight. “Sure, he was her boyfriend at the time, so it perhaps crossed his mind to get tested to see if he was a match -- which is incredibly rare -- but it never got anywhere close to actually happening.”
The unnamed source also noted how Selena would have never even asked him to do it. "She wouldn’t have even wanted him to even entertain the idea! It was difficult enough for her to allow a lifelong friend to do it, but a new boyfriend? No way.”
As we know, Selena's best friend Francia Raisa ended up giving her a kidney.
