Selena Gomez shows off her peachy pout in the September 2011 Glamour magazine which has lady Rihanna on the cover.
In the interview, Selena reminds us that she is only 19 years old and asks the media to take it easy on her, especially when it comes to dating an even more famous teen, Justin Bieber. “I feel like everything that I’m doing right now should not be taken too seriously,” Selena told the mag. “I should be able to have fun and enjoy where I’m at! So I don’t want to spend my time hiding or worrying about all of that.”
Here are ome excerpts from the interview:
On living with the rejection of showbiz:
“When I was 11 years old, I had a grown woman who was a casting director tell me I was not strong enough to carry the lead in any project. Now I’m doing things that I love, and I’m working really hard. I never want to play the victim or anything, but of course everybody deals with it.”
On Facebook and Twitter Fans:
“I love that I can stay connected with my fans and be able to tell them what’s going on. Their opinions are so important to me. But at the same time, it’s very weird. I think the Internet can be a great thing but also really evil. Something can instantly hurt your feelings.”
On being threatened online by Justin Bieber fans:
“Yeah, I’m human, so of course certain things sometimes hurt. I just laugh at it.”
On being young in Hollywood:
“You have this pressure to fit in and you want people to like you. I try my best to be a good person and be the best I can be.”
