Everybody Loves Selena

I've known Selena through some of the most important years of both of our lives. I've seen her grow up gracefully and gradually in spite of all the pressure on her. Selena has learned to make and follow her own rules, when to take a chance on projects that are out of her comfort zone, and when to walk away when something isn't right. She's living life on her terms.

Selena's so sweet and everything you'd expect her to be. And I don't read any gossip blogs. With Hollywood rumors, sometimes people make stuff up completely.

For Selena, I didn’t really know her. I knew of her obviously. I was super lucky to work with her, especially cause this was my first starring role in a movie and I had such a great leading lady.

She was great. She went for it. She's gonna surprise a lot of people. She's the real deal.

BOP&TB: Do you guys watch Selena’s set every night?

She's giving back to people who need help, because of her own life experience...she's the exception to so many rules.

I’m 24 and hanging out with a 17-year-old, and it didn’t feel like that at all. She is really wise beyond her years. But she has this innocence to her, too, that I hope will never go away, because she sees the beauty in every little thing.

Taylor sat me next to her and Selena Gomez and they both have the same kind of mind state when it comes to those award shows — it’s either have fun with your friends or don’t go
