EXCLUSIVE Selena Gomez backstage iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball 2013 interview

And this interview was done on a couch that was sat on by Selena, right? Gomez. Hi, Selena Gomez. Hi. I get said that so like people say it and that's I say it to them. I love it. Dude, your career has really taken off since J-Lo did that movie about you. I mean, I mean, thank goodness for her. Yeah. How did they look into the future, Selena Gomez? Wow. Oh, don't say that. Oh, yeah. You know how many of you don't? Well, but she got really famous. Great. I think Selena Gomez covered that. Selena, I just have to say, as a mom, high five to you from across the gal's face. Yay. For consciously making the decision to keep it clean and keep it classy. Thank you. Because I know as an artist, when you've got so many other young people that are being told, shake your booty, be more sexual. I bet you had to take a stand. Um, kind of. I mean, but at the same time, I don't really know. I've already tried to be versions of myself that I'm not. And I think people can tell and I can tell. And it just it doesn't it doesn't work. So I don't know. I'm literally born and raised here. So I've just had that mentality in my whole life. And I was a little behind. That picture you posted on Instagram of you with no hashtag no makeup with a with hella filters. Hate when girls. OK, that's what I was going to say. Because you look so beautiful. Yeah. Yeah. Filters. A lot of filters. I just I was making fun of the fact that everyone always says that. And I didn't have big ones. Yeah. How do you. I mean, but I just saw you posing for photos alone. You were talking about you don't know what to do with your hands. But yeah, you've masked you. Oh, I can do the selfies. You've absolutely mastered it. I know. What's the secret to the selfie? All that stuff is so fun because you filter it. I mean, if I could take a photo that that guy took and not have it HD and pixelize it and put black and white, I'd be great. But I get so uncomfortable because everything's like in your face. HD that I'm like, oh, I'll just hold my hands and smile. But when we saw awkward. Well, we saw the previous interview and they brought you gifts. So I brought you. I just. Are you nervous right now? I brought you an iPhone. OK. And here you can have. Yeah. And I also brought it out. I also brought you a Ford F-150. And you can only. Department. It's black. So it matches your outfit. This is the best. This is that cool writing time for the holidays. So, you know, take that. What is the strangest, like most extravagant thing? I know a lot of times fans throw things on the stage, but people do. I'm like, I'm about to take off. I mean, you probably hear stories about how like these Iranian sheiks or sheiks, you know, offer you millions to come over to their land and stuff. Do you ever get offers like that for serious? What was here is a random story that I actually have never told anyone. But I went overseas to visit my ex-boyfriend while he was on tour. And we were in this place that I've never been. And this guy comes in and he's like an emperor of some like whatever. And never heard of it before. He goes up to suggest and he's like, here, I want to give you this three million dollar diamond to give to Selena. I was like, I was a diamond. It was his wife's. So he took it off the wife's hand. No, it was just like they collect them because they're millionaires. It was the craziest. Another thing to them. Did he take it? No, no, no, no, no. Well, we saw it. We had to be tempted. But I never let go. It was just a gift because they're so giving there. They were giving us food and like tea. And it was just there. It was like taking back my phone. Yeah, you know, I mean, my phone on my phone. I have a confession. The most embarrassing video I have on YouTube is with you in it. OK, it's with you in it. I don't know if you remember. It's not your clothes because I see it. You can see it. It's I don't know if you remember you came into our studio and we had a little girl that that was a big fan of yours. And when I dance, I accidentally do a M&M grab. You know what I'm saying? Oh, I remember. So that's on you for walking up to the camera individually. Yeah. You look awesome. And I was like, and I came in. Yeah. And so that's the most embarrassing video to date. I'm glad to be a part of it. I'm honored. What's the most embarrassing video you're in? Besides that one? Oh, I have this one right now. I have so many. I don't know. There's I've felt I've fallen off stage. I won my first VMA and said, take care at the end of it. So like you really like Drake. I evidently I was like this. I didn't think I was going to win. I genuinely didn't. So I was like, take care. And while I walked out, I said, thank you. But I just it was. Wow. Yeah. So it was pretty embarrassing. My first VMA. I know it's so hot in here. We're going to let you go as soon as possible. You took time off from the music to concentrate solely on the acting. And now have you gone fully back into the music or are you trying to swing both? I think that I've been so lucky to get something out of both that I've been able to maintain. So I if I'm able to do both, I want to do both. But I prioritize them individually because then I'd be crazier than I am. So I know it's all about the music. Right. How many people walk up to you a day and go spring break? Not anymore. But that was every day. My meet and greets. All of my poses are our spring breakers poses that that fans want to do. And it's funny. It's cool. A couple of people were with us for Halloween. So that's cool. Tracy, you should have thought of that for Halloween. What? Stupid. Right? What were you? Why? What was I this year? You were the players on that game show. Oh, Double Dare. Double Dare. Nickelodeon competitor. I know. Nobody knew. And nobody knew what the hell he was. Is James Franco as crazy as he seems? I mean, I don't mean literally psycho crazy just because it's like he never sleeps. No, I said to everyone that I didn't really get to meet James until we finished shooting the movie, because the first time I met him, he came as as he stays in character. So I was a little terrified, which helped my character because I was supposed to be scared of him. And then by the end of it, we're doing press. And then I went from being absolutely repulsed by him to like having a crush on him. It was the craziest thing. He's so smart. He's so nice. But he thinks about a million different things. So, yeah, he's very busy. I don't know how he sleeps. We don't know how you sleep or function because you're so busy. But we thank you for taking time to talk to us today and for performing at Jingle Ball. Yeah, I think a big sister. Yeah. Give it up for Celina.
