Jennifer Stone and Selena Gomez Reunite in a Nostalgic Wizards of Waverly Place ‘We Had To’ on TikTok

On Saturday, Selena Gomez and Jennifer Stone gave their fans a taste of nostalgia with a cover of a classic song from the Disney Channel sitcom Wizards of Waverly Place, in which they appeared from 2007 to 2013.

Gomez and Stone, both 29, perform a lip-synched duet of the “Crazy Hat Song” from episode 4 of season 1 of Wizards of Waverly Place — complete with the appropriate dance — for their fans in the video.

After nailing their performance, Gomez and Stone burst out laughing and stick their tongues out for the camera before the recording is cut short.

On the video, which they posted on their own TikTok profiles, the duo said in white text, “We had to…”

“Reunited and it feels so good. 🥂” Stone wrote with her post.

On the Disney comedy, she and Gomez portrayed best friends Harper Finkle, a mortal, and Alex Russo, a wizard in training, in the narrative of a wizarding family with three children training to compete for exclusive ownership of the family’s magical powers.

When Maria Canals-Barrera, who played Theresa Russo, Gomez’s show-mom, saw the TikTok clip, she couldn’t stop herself from writing, “LOVE this.. love you two! 💕❤️♥️.”

In the comments area of both actresses’ posts, fans (including some renowned ones) exclaimed about the video. JoJo Siwa posted on Gomez’s page: “I gotta go this is too iconic.”

YouTuber Tana Mongeau, 23, also commented with “this gave me a will to live for the week.”

On TikTok, Gomez is no stranger to partnering with other superstars. The “Let Somebody Go” singer filmed a Dance Moms-themed video with Camila Cabello earlier this week while the two appeared to be having a girls’ night in.

The two acted out a scenario from the reality series alongside Dance Moms’ Christi Lukasiak and Kelly Hyland — parents to dancers Chloe Lukasiak and Brooke Hyland, respectively — in a video on Gomez’s TikTok page.
