How'd she get so famous at only 16 years old?
Even though Selena is only 16, she wasn't simply an overnight success. She's been working hard on her career since she was seven. Yep, seven! Selena's big break came when she spent her seventh birthday at a casting for Disney's Barney & Friends. The hard work paid off, because not only was she aliyopewa the role of Gianna, she also met her best friend Demi Lovato, and they've been besties ever since Demi asked Selena "to sit on my koti, jacket and draw with crayons with me". Cute!
Where have we seen her?
Selena now stars in Wizards of Waverley Place, that shows on the Disney Channel and has had roles in Spy Kids 3D, Horton Hears a Who!, Another cinderella Story, and has a movie called Princess Protection Program coming out this mwaka in which she stars alongside Demi Lovato!
She also played Miley Stewart's enemy for a few episodes in Hannah Montana, which could explain why those rumours started that Miley and Selena are frenemies in real life! But are they?
Selena the Singer
Just when wewe couldn't imagine being as busy as Selena, don't forget her debut album is due to drop in July 2009! Plus, she recently began auditions for members of her band, and has formed a production company called July Moon Productions. We hope she's got a lot of help, 'cos where will she find the time to run it?
Will Selena and Taylor mwepesi, teleka do a duet?
Selena has us clapping excitedly at the announcement that she would like to do a duet with Taylor Swift! She told Popstar! magazine, "We want to write a really awesome country-rock song and it sounds a little weird but we're totally down for that." We are totally down for that, too!
How does she dress when she's not on the red carpet?
Selena says she's "not really a girly girl", but have wewe seen her red-carpet style? It's very feminine and cute. But Selena says she's much zaidi casual when she's not working.
"I understand I can’t wear jeans and sneakers to an event, but I’m not a dress girl. I find my own way of dressing up! I like to add cool bracelets au skinny jeans. I try to find a happy medium.” she says.
