Selena Gomez says that Taylor Swift is a good friend of hers! Not only that, she said that Swift is one of her role models.
She spoke about her new album and her bond with the celebrity friend, during an interview with the Flare Magazine.
"A bunch of women I look up to and admire are supporting one another, and Taylor has such a beautiful way of bringing people together. That was good for me, because the more I started working, the more uncomfortable I was. I wouldn't trust people, and Taylor has a way of stripping down everything and just getting down to being human. I love that," she said.
She elaborated on her distrust of people, saying that she feels "very safe" at home and movie sets. "I think that's probably why I'm in love with what I do. And when I'm with my friends, I'll host dinners or parties at my home; it's not like I'm a complete hermit. I just don't give myself to anyone; I don't trust as much as I would like to, but that's OK. It's something I work on," she continued.
The "Good For You" star recently bought a house, and is living with roommates who don't have anything to do with the celeb world, and she says that is an "awesome" experience. "One of my roommates is a realtor and another one works for a social media company, so the girls are always on their laptops. There's coffee, there's conversation, there are fights, there's staying up all night and talking. If I get time alone, I'll blare music and dance around and have a Red Bull or something, like I'm clubbing in my own house."
Speaking to USA Today in June, Gomez said that she has to stay guarded with people in the outside world, and cannot trust just anyone.
"You can't talk about anything that you want to share with people because it's going to be ripped apart, and that's what makes me really sad... I have a right to say what I'm going to say. If you're going to sit here and talk about my life, I have a right to say what I want and obviously I'm going to do it the way I wish to. But it is unfortunate, and you have to be guarded... I don't trust anyone... It's something that I have to live with and I have to find the balance of who I want in my life and who isn't good for me."
However, Gomez apparently has some "trusted" friends, one of them being Taylor, who also tried to convince her to get a cat!
"I don't have a cat yet don't make me a cat lady yet...Taylor's trying to convince me to get one," she said a couple of months ago.
