Mayores

Gomez explained that the song originated as a "joke" after having confirmed her relationship with soccer player Sebastian Lletget, who is five years older than her. She started using the hashtag "#6DaysTillMAYORES" on Twitter which eventually started trending. A number became lower with each passing day, until it reached "#MAYORESOutNow".

"Mayores" debuted at number 12 on the Hot Latin Songs chart, making it Gomez's highest debut peak position on that chart. The song eventually peaked at number 3 on the charts.

The song also debuted at number 72 on the Spanish PROMUSICAE chart. It rose to number 4 four weeks later, making it her highest-peaking position, surpassing the number 37 peak of "Shower". It later reached number one.

The song eventually charted on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 74. This marked Gomez’s fourth appearance on the chart in over two years, following her top-twenty hit “Shower” (2014), her collaboration with Cher Lloyd, “Oath” (2012), which peaked at number 73, and “Can't Stop Dancin'” (2014), which reached number 88 in early 2015. The song also earned Bad Bunny his first entry on the Hot 100.

The music video, filmed in Los Angeles, was uploaded on Gomez's Vevo account on July 13, 2017. As of October 2025, it has received over 2.5 billion view on YouTube.^[6]

Due to the song becoming a huge success, Gomez was invited to perform it at several radio stations and during interviews. She sang the song regular and acoustic at iHeart Radio Mi Música. She also sang it in Spain in La Vida Moderna and Sale el Sol in acoustic, and regular on Operación Triunfo. Her performance on the latter garnered some attention due to a change in the lyrics at the request of the producers due to them thinking they were "too sexual". Although Gomez agreed, she later stated it bothered her and said she accepted "out of respect" and because it was "a great opportunity", but believes that it wouldn't be done to a man, listing Ozuna and Enrique Iglesias as examples.^[7]

Gomez performed the song with Bad Bunny at the Latin American Music Awards of 2017, which she also hosted; the performance was later uploaded to YouTube and has garnered over 91 million views.^[8] The song was included on her setlist as an opening act for Fifth Harmony's 2017 PSA Tour and on her own tour in 2018. She sang the song last in her performance at Viña del Mar on March 2, 2019. Gomez and Bad Bunny performed the song at the latter's X 100pPre Tour on March 8 and April 22, 2019.^[9] Gomez included "Mayores" in three medleys: the first at the 2019 Latin American Music Awards together with "Sin Pijama" and "Mala Santa", before receiving the Extraordinary Evolution Award from Pitbull. The second time was at the 2019 MTV Europe Music Awards, this time with "24/7", a track from her debut album replacing "Mala Santa".^[10] The third time was at the LOS40 Music Awards 2019 with the original medley. All three performances had different arrangements. In the latter performance Gomez rewrote Bad Bunny's verse with lyrics from her "side of the relationship", including a reference to her feature in "Dura (Remix)" with Daddy Yankee, Natti Natasha, and the rapper.^[11] Gomez performed the song at the Coachella 2023 on April 14 and 21, 2023.^[12]
