Last updated 21st Jan 2020
This morning (12th December), Hits Radio Breakfast with Fleur East, Greg and James were joined by Selena Gomez. They chatted about what we can expect from her new album, her four-year break from music and the interesting things she got up to while she was away from the scene.
Selena's last album 'Revival' was released in 2015, but fans are eagerly awaiting her third solo album 'SG2', due for release on 10th January 2020. And Selena was keen to reveal some further details about it, even teasing a collaboration with a mystery person.
"There is a song with a feature on it and I can't say who, but it is the last track of the album," Selena teased.
Revealing that every lyric in her album has a meaning behind it, Selena said it is, "About break up and attitude."

Speaking about her break from music, Selena admitted that she wasn't ready to release more music straight away. The time away allowed her to experience so much more, which has helped her with the new music.
In the time that's passed, Selena took up stunt training and she revealed to Fleur, Greg and James that she, "Did a bit of everything and can block certain moves." Laughing, she joked, "It sounds a lot cooler than I look... I have some funny videos where I look ridiculous." We NEED to see these!
"It's a release!" she continued.
The conversation soon turned to food, with Selena revealing her favourite snacks and dish. Selena admitted that on the way to the interview she was snacking on M&Ms and Bounty bars, but she also loves a chocolate that she couldn't remember the name of! She described it as being wrapped in gold paper with a brown base, we think she's describing Ferrero Rocher, but not 100% sure! 🤔
Meanwhile, when it comes to savoury food, Selena is a massive fan of pasta, even posting a series of photos of her eating the Italian food. Admitting that the post was incredibly popular, the singer said she hoped her new album would get as much attention as the pasta!
Although Selena hasn't released an album for four years, she has been busy with a number of projects, including working on the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why. Selena was an executive producer on the series, with her song 'Only You' being featured on the TV show.
13.Reasons Why is a hard hitting, thought-provoking series. In the first season it followed a group of teens whose friend Hannah committed suicide. After Hannah's death, her friend Clay found a box of tapes recorded by her with the reasons she decided to end her life. There have now been three seasons of the Netflix show.
