Gossip Teen

“Wizards Of Waverly Place” star Selena Gomez is featured in a special Vanity Fair article about Women To Follow in Hollywood, where she is described as a talented young actress with a bright future ahead.

SELENA GOMEZ Has a hit Disney show? Check. A new album? Check. Dated a Jonas Brother? Check. Not bad for a teenager who grew up in Grand Prairie, Texas, with her divorced mother, living paycheck to paycheck. After she appeared in Barney & Friends and Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, Disney picked her to play the sassy middle child with magical powers in the popular television showWizards of Waverly Place. Next she’ll star in Ramona andBeezus, based on the classic Beverly Cleary series, as the eager-to-please big sister to the little pest. But Gomez has a brooding side, too. She loves solitude and painting, and her bedside reading is decidedly un-chipper. “I’m reading The Bad Seed right now,” she says. “Well, I’m not sure if I should say it. It’s about a child who’s a murderer.”

Selena is one of the best actresses of her generation and we cannot wait to see her growing up to more mature roles in movies for a more mature audience too. This girl reminds me of old school Hollywood – so glamorous, beautiful and very classy!!
