I don’t think it’s the blaring camera lights, I don’t see celebrity men holding hand thru the glare of press lights.
I think security tells them to stay very close together as a group so they are more easily protected, if there's a security incident. Don't let individuals fall behind, walk together in a tight group. Easiest way to do that is lock arms and hold hands so everyone moves at the same pace.
Remember - there's a crowd of photographers and onlookers right outside the frame, plus multiple security team members. If someone runs up to accost Selena Gomez, they don't want to split up the group as it makes the remaining individuals vulnerable from a security standpoint.
