Selena Marie Gomez (born July 22, 1992) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and television producer. After appearing on the children's series Barney & Friends (2002–2004), she received wider recognition for her portrayal of Alex Russo on the Emmy Award-winning Disney Channel television series Wizards of Waverly Place, which aired from 2007 until 2012.
Gomez also starred in the films Another Cinderella Story (2008), Princess Protection Program (2009), Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie (2009), Ramona and Beezus (2010), and Monte Carlo (2011). Thereafter, she focused on more mature roles in Spring Breakers (2012), Getaway (2013), The Fundamentals of Caring (2016), and The Dead Don't Die (2019). She voices the character of Mavis in the Hotel Transylvania film franchise, and serves as an executive producer of the Netflix television drama series 13 Reasons Why (2017–present) and the Netflix documentary series Living Undocumented (2019).
Selena Gomez has revealed that her first kiss was one of ‘the worst days of her life’ – and it just so happened to have taken place for a TV show.
The singer had locked lips with actor Dylan Sprouse when she appeared as a guest star on his Disney Channel series The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody in 2006, in which he co-starred alongside his twin brother Cole Sprouse.
However, Selena doesn’t have the most fond memories of this particular moment. In fact, she revealed that she was ‘in love’ with Cole growing up, and thought that they were going to end up together – but then she found she instead had to kiss his brother for her starring role.
