Selena Gomez covers the November issue of Flare magazine to promote her Revival album (which she executive produced). She’s wearing an Alexander Wang leather dress on the cover and looks stunning. Selena’s been wearing some amazing fashion as she promotes this album, and this editorial fits the new mood. This issue of Flare is available on Next Issue already and will hit newsstands on October 12. In this interview, she covers several topics, including whether or not she’s seeing someone, her media image, and her BFF, Taylor Swift. Selena also gets into the terrible body shaming that hit after she wore an ill-fitting bikini. Some excerpts:
On the past few years: “This has been a transitional season for me, personally and in my career. I had multiple revelations and big accomplishments in my life: a new label and a new team; I?ve been working out more and focusing on my music; and I got to do a couple of movies. I was really fighting for this transition. Then, it was frustrating to see how the media was portraying me; it was defamation of character. I’m young: I’ve lived my life in the public eye, and I’ve had to figure out how to do that. Ultimately, I am 23 and figuring out my life. I feel confident, I feel empowered, I feel in control.”
On Taylor Swift: “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.”
On body shaming: “I was getting criticized [by the media] because I had gained weight. I was really bummed when I found out all that stuff was going on, and that?s when I was like, ‘I’m so tired of feeling like I’m being pulled down by something.’”
On dating: “I would never go on Tinder! I think it would scare me. I go on dates. It’s not that difficult – I’m a nice young lady [laughs] – but that’s not my focus. I’m really stoked about being with myself right now.”
On her Christian faith: “I respect all religions and I encourage people to have a higher power, however they feel it, because it is beautiful to have a relationship, in my case with the Lord. So I’ve always been open about that … I have compassion, I have forgiveness, I have understanding, and this is my life – this is how I choose to live it. I?ve never been disappointed in the choices I’ve made, which I’m proud of.”
Her version of sexiness: “I have my own definition of what I think is beautiful and sexy. That’s why, in [my new] video, I didn’t wear lingerie and I didn’t have a guy in it. It’s a woman in one of those raw, bare moments; she’s vulnerable, and that’s sexy.”

In a way, I see what Selena’s saying about feeling pulled down all the time. She gets hit by all sorts of media flak and Twitter bodyshaming lately, and it must be exhausting. She’s so eager to ditch the collective memory that she dated Justin Bieber, and that would be enough to make anyone batty. But I think Selena will be fine. She does have a solid head on her shoulders lately, and this new album promises to be something different and somewhat original compared to many of her previous releases. Oh, and this editorial is gorgeous.

So according to my sources, Selena Gomez was in Parisover the weekend. And I guess she must’ve heard me say she needed to start steppingher game up in the clothing department, because here she is trying out three different outfits for the paps.

According to my sources, our second favorite pop star Selena Gomez is in London right now (in case you couldn’t tell from the teeth on that dude behind her). And as much as I hate to say it, unless Selena starts stepping it up in the outfit department soon, she’s going to fall behind Taylor […]

Selena Gomez wore an unprecedented four outfits in London. Selena usually wears cute stuff, but she’s never been a major style junkie. This red dress is Preen, and it’s my favorite out of all of them. She also wore a structural white coatdress, which was beautiful. Then came a casual black jeans outfit with heels and a funky hat. There’s also one last outfit — a little black EDUN sweater dress with a red high-neck collar — which you can see at the Mail. All four of the outfits are polished and very grown up, which is a dual image Selena wants to present. That is, someone who is free from Swaggy and moving into adulthood.
Selena recently gave an interview to Extra about the body-shaming she endured. She says that episode inspired this new album:
On her Revival album: “I was getting a lot of hate for my body and ‘you’re gaining weight,’ and so I was in Mexico and I was just feeling all of this stuff and I would be lying to you if I said it didn’t kind of hurt my feelings, but I kind of channeled that into my music. I felt like everybody was saying so much and I’m like, ‘I need to say something…’ [The songs I wrote] on the record are ‘Survivors,’ ‘Kill ‘em with Kindness,’ and ‘Rise.’ It’s, it’s all geared towards me trying to be heard, and I think this is the best thing that I’ve ever done in my whole career and I’m so excited.”
She deleted Instagram from her phone: “I think it’s so hard, now more than ever… I’ve had to delete Instagram off my phone for a week and just kind of not get on it, ’cause it is crazy and I couldn’t imagine being 13 and dealing with it. My only compassion towards kids is like, ‘You can’t listen to it, you have to know that you’re made individually to be who you are and you should just be able to find your happiness.’ It’s so hard to say, ’cause I’ve been doing it myself, you know?”

Well, it sucks that Selena had to go through body shaming, but I’m not surprised it happened. The internet is so cruel, especially when it comes to women’s bodies. Selena looks stunning, and she’s always been beautiful. I’m more concerned with her staying healthy and away from Justin Bieber. She seems to do very well when he’s not influencing her, so I hope she stays strong. The stuff she says about social media’s effect on kids makes a lot of sense. I’m pretty scrupulous about checking out what my daughter does online because I don’t want her to see too much thigh gap nonsense (although she’s already seen some of it and brought it up).
Anyway, Selena’s fashion is on point in London, so which outfit is your favorite?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely digging the peek we’re getting at Selena Gomez‘s super-cute cleavage in these shots of her out in London. But if Selena’sserious about passing Miley Cyrus as my #1 pop star crush, she’s going to have to step her game up a whole lot more than this. Miley probably already […]

According to my sources, it’s London Fashion Week or something, and one of my favorite pop star hotties Selena Gomez showed up to the Louis Vuitton Series 3 Gala Opening looking hotter than we’ve seen her in weeks. Anyway, I don’t know much about fashion, but if you ask me, as good as Selena looks […]

Apparently Selena Gomez did a photoshoot withElle Magazine for their October issue, and according to the cover, she talked to them about feeling “the pressure to be perfect.” Which is just nuts. I mean, c’mon, I would never do that! So, just to clarify: I’m not trying to pressure Selenato be perfect, I’m trying to […]

Good news: it sounds like Selena Gomez was listening when I said that she’d need to start ditching a few layers of clothing if she wanted to to take over from Miley Cyrus as my #1 pop star crush. Because she just posted this picture to Instagram, and for once, I completelyapprove of her choice […]

Selena Gomez continues to move past her unavoidable association with Justin Bieber, but he won’t let it go. After she made it clear that she’d like to move past being known as Bieber’s ex girlfriend, Swaggy himself is trying to keep the dream alive. He recently whined about how Selena broke his heart, which is all her fault even though he was stumbling out of brothels. There’s nothing more annoying than an arrogant guy who blames an ex for all his problems.
Selena has yet to respond (and hopefully, she won’t) to Swaggy’s latest public pleas for a reconciliation. She did take to Twitter recently to discuss something much more interesting. Selena says she was always worried that her voice was too low. She longed to sound more girly, but now she’s proud to sound different than everyone else:
“I was always insecure with my speaking voice because it’s so low. I never felt like it was feminine-sounding. I didn’t know it would be such an asset to who I am now, though. It adds a cool, personal quality. It’s exciting.”
[From Selena Gomez on Twitter]
Husky voices are awesome, and who wants to sound like everyone else anyway? I think female voices are much more appealing when they run towards the alto end of the spectrum. And it’s good that Selena feels more comfy all around these days.
Meanwhile, Selena’s new album art for Revival is slightly NSFW. She posed nude, and you can see the photo here. This is an artsy type of nude, and there’s nothing Terry Richardson about the picture. She looks like she stepped into a 1990s type of model session with the likes of Cindy Crawford and Christie Turlington. Thank goodness.
