Selena Gomez Covers Latina Magazine
Disney starlet Selena Gomez is Latina magazine’s fresh new face on their April 2009 cover. Here’s what the 16-year-old Wizards of Waverly Place actress opened up about:
On being a teen celebrity, including the perks and the pitfalls that come with it: “I always wanted this to be my life but I don’t want it to live my life for me.”
On admiring Britney Spears: “In a way, Britney can be someone to look up to. She was constantly being looked at and picked on, and it’s starting to happen to me. At the moment, I don’t have anything good they can pick on me with, but they’ll find something. Maybe I can be as strong.”
On being proud of her Latin roots: “I didn’t even realize what a big deal it was to be Latin at first. But then one day being with my dad, it hit me: it’s pretty neat to be Mexican. And there aren’t enough Latinas in Hollywood—or there are, but they don’t get the recognition. So to be able to come out here and use that, it’s really a powerful thing.”
On the so-called feud with fellow Disney star, Miley Cyrus: “I think Miley can agree with me. There are so many more things going on that are so much more important to us in our lives than wasting time on that stuff.”
Selena was spotted shopping at American Eagle Outfitters in Puerto Rico, where she’s filming the Wizards movie.

Selena’s “sweetness” is a big front to keep Disney happy. Yeah Britney’s someone to look up to. If you want to be a tore up Hollywood wh*re while still a teen! And Selena will be a fine sl*t as well!
She’s dumb.
Okay I can’t help by LAUGH about how She and the media are sooo stupid. First, she is a white wannabe, and she dosen’t give a hoot about her culture. She does “now” because the media is making it seem important, like she is a grand latina star! Oh my! Psh, she is fake. And I got pretty offended, when she said that their may be mexican stars, but they don’t got enough recognition. BULL. Selena (The queen of tex mex) may be dead, but she represents us mexicans. Heck, she is FAMOUS still even though she is dead. What a loser!
as a latina , im VERY dissapointed in people that say im latino just cuz its in their blood but grow up exactly like a white person & as being rich she ESPECIALLY cant relate with the SH*T we go through. being latin isnt a privilage, like most of us it was a dissability so dont say ur latin just cuz its cool & unique
o.k. ******* B haten 2 much get a F N life n stop worrying bout who she looks like at least she dont look like shhhht, most of u haters probably do n dats y u haten, shes not making a dumbass out of her self n dats all dat matters so stop trippin u hoes!!! she’s a great person

DUMB *****!!! hope u got my point BETZ loserrr
Wow you people are really angry over her saying she was proud of her heritage. How do you know if she know’s about her heritage or not? It’s not as if you know her. Why would you say she’s gonna be a **** it’s like you want something bad to happen. Why can’t people just let something positive be positive. If she is fake it’ll come out and if she’s not then leave her alone cause she hasn’t done anything to make people see her in a negative light.
Peopleareidiots, I guess you are an idiot. It SAYS clearly in her interview. She is now all into her roots, now that the MEDIA makes it look big. You can tell the difference between someone who is proud, and someone who is fake.
I love her!
Haters are totally missing out.
I just love her.
# 1 idol!!!!
she amazes me like no other.
WAYYY better than miley.
I’m gonna meet her when I graduate from college.
Its gonna be my graduation gift. :) yayyyyyyyy!

@maggie: i kno right MILEYS SUCH A ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Selena’s dad is Mexican and her mom is half Italian
(Italians r latinos also)
so that makes her a Latina
like it or not.
how could some of u say that she doesnt know spanish if her dad
is a straight-up wetback (like me)
im just glad that even though she is famous that she considers herself
a MEXICAN.
seriously why r u caucasians mad because she is proud of her latin roots
like her voice
SHE IS UGLY ON THIS PICTURES :( ЕSPECIALLY ON THE COVER ;[
Cherri you are so right!!
selena maybe proud but she doesnt even know how to say Latina in a latina accent!!
i love her to death,but she is a mexican white wash!!
i hate Selena , she’s so fake , try to be sweet but she’s juz a sluttt !!!
