<a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> and her band, the Scene, are poised to release "Naturally," the next single off their album, <a href="/news/articles/1623116/20091005/gomez__selena.jhtml"><i>Kiss &amp; Tell.</i></a> And at the American Music Awards on Sunday night, the "Wizards of Waverly Place" star told MTV News that they have a video for the song coming out shortly too.
</p><p>"That's coming out soon," she said of the uptempo dance-floor friendly track, in which Gomez sings about a guy who is her perfect fit. Their relationship comes, well, quite naturally, and they make sense together like thunder and lightning. "I shot a video for it a couple weekends ago."
</p><p></p><div style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;">

</p><p>The 17-year-old singer said that the video, which she shot on November 14, will have her fans seeing her in a brand-new way. "The video is very different from any other video that I've done," she said. "It has a lot more fierce clothes and a lot of fun colors."
</p><p>In October, Gomez sat down with MTV News to talk about the album, which she was relieved to see finally on the shelves. "I have been working on it for a good two years now, so for it to finally be out is this huge thing lifted off my chest," she said. "And it feels amazing. I hope my fans like it."
</p><p>The album, which also features first single "Falling Down," wasn't entirely penned by Gomez, but she said she was very picky about the songs she chose. "I wanted to make sure, A) I can relate to it, and B) my fans can relate to it, and it's something that I went through," she explained. "And all of those songs are things that I went through, and that's why I put that all together."

There was a wide variety of looks on the American Music Awards red carpet, but there was one overriding theme: black and sparkles, be it sequins or jewels.
</p><p><a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> wore a little sparkly dress cinched with a belt, while <a href="/music/artist/hilson__keri/artist.jhtml">Keri Hilson</a> funked up her short, long-sleeved black dress with lots of sequins. <a href="/music/artist/clarkson_kelly/artist.jhtml">Kelly Clarkson</a> also went with classic black, in a dress with shimmering silver-sequin detailing. <a href="/music/artist/keys_alicia/artist.jhtml">Alicia Keys</a> broke all the color rules in her corseted tie-dye dress with sequins.

</p><p>Demi Lovato looked hip in a blush-colored dress with a jeweled halter neck, and <a href="/music/artist/underwood__carrie/artist.jhtml">Carrie Underwood</a> went for the blush tone as well in a Grecian-style gown. <a href="/music/artist/lewis__leona/artist.jhtml">Leona Lewis</a> went edgy in a leather minidress with a geometric neckline. "American Idol" winner Kris Allen looked dapper in his gray pinstripe suit with black piping, and fellow "Idol" alum Adam Lambert channeled his inner Elvis with his slicked-back hair and sleek suit.
</p><p>Speaking of "Idol," Paula Abdul looked chic in a simple black strapless mermaid dress. Fergie also wore black, in the form of a shimmering leather gown that looked a lot like the one Shakira wore to the VMAs in September. The guys also embraced the black trend, with Drake and Keith Urban donning nearly identical black suits with black button-downs, with noticeably absent ties. Urban, however, accessorized his look with his glamorous wife, Nicole Kidman, who looked stunning in a taupe tiered Balenciaga gown with a bright pink stripe.
</p><p>Speaking of pairings, 50 Cent, clad in a gray suit, showed up with Val Kilmer in his most formal cowboy outfit. Shakira bucked the trends in a short, bright yellow dress with a V-style corset. However, perhaps no one made a bigger statement than <a href="/music/artist/rihanna/artist.jhtml">Rihanna</a> who, despite wearing black and sequins, managed to stand out in her strapless dress with A-line hem and rose cutouts, making another uniquely glam appearance.

<p>
Since the release of the first <a href="/movies/movie/369195/moviemain.jhtml">"Twilight"</a> film, fans have been divided on one issue: Team Edward or Team Jacob? Well, the November 20 release of <a href="/movies/movie/414921/moviemain.jhtml">"New Moon"</a> is sure to make that decision harder. MTV News left it to our favorite celebrities.
</p><p>So who is on Team Edward? "No, I really did not like [Jacob]. I would put my book down and be like, 'Leave Bella alone,' " "Hills" star Stephanie Pratt told MTV News. "I had issues with Jacob &#8212; that he was just, like, manipulating with her and messing with her, especially when Edward came back in the picture ... I get really mad and I feel bad 'cause I think I take it out on Taylor [Lautner]. I hate Jacob."
</p><p></p><div style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;">
<embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:454025" width="256" height="223" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashVars="configParams=instance%3Dnews%26vid%3D454025" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></div><p>
</p><p><a href="/music/artist/backstreet_boys/artist.jhtml">Backstreet Boy</a> AJ McLean isn't ashamed to wave his Team Edward flag proudly. " 'New Moon' looks amazing. It's gonna be great. There's more werewolves in this one. It's gonna be good," he said. But despite his excitement for the werewolves, he added, "I'm Team Edward. Jacob's gotta sneak it in there."
</p><p>It seems that Edward Cullen's mysterious and brooding nature has also captured the heart of "Hills" star Audrina Patridge. <a href="http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/11/26/hills-star-audrina-patridge-confesses-twilight-love-campaigns-for-role-in-sequels/#more-7116">She said, "I want to meet an Edward!"</a>
</p><p>Will Ferrell may not have the details exactly right about just who is involved in this whole "Twilight Saga," but he knows enough to know there's an Edward in the flick. "I'm kinda Team Edward, I'm kinda Team Jim," he joked. <a href="http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/06/01/will-ferrell-fesses-up-to-his-love-for-team-edward-and-twilight/">"I'm kinda Team ... Stanley."</a>
</p><p>Add <a href="/movies/news/articles/1604771/20090210/story.jhtml">Joe Jonas</a> to the list of Edward supporters. "For a lot of guys, they want superpowers," Joe said, favoring Edward. "He's a vampire, but he's pretty strong and stuff."
</p><p>With the scales tipped in Edward's favor, someone had to support the underdog. "This question is so hard. I don't know, I like them both," <a href="/movies/news/articles/1623347/20091007/story.jhtml">Taylor Lautner's friend Selena Gomez said</a>. "I have to chose one of them? I don't know, I guess Team Jacob, 'cause I want to be a good friend."
</p><p>Gomez's pal <a href="/movies/news/articles/1605817/20090225/story.jhtml">Demi Lovato just couldn't pick a side</a>. "Edward Cullen &#8212; I would write a love song to him," the singer/actress said, before giddily adding, "Or Jacob Black!"

<p>
While <a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> never admitted to dating <a href="/movies/movie/414921/moviemain.jhtml">"Twilight"</a> star <a href="/music/artist/id_373803/artist.jhtml">Taylor Lautner</a>, the two definitely don't seem to be together any longer. But just because the heartthrob is out of her life, that doesn't mean he's out of her heart. When MTV News posed the classic Twilighter conundrum &#8212; Team Edward or Team Jacob? &#8212; to Gomez, she went with her pal.
</p><p>"This question is so hard. I don't know, I like them both," she told MTV News. "I have to chose one of them? I don't know, I guess Team Jacob, 'cause I want to be a good friend."
</p><p></p><div style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;">

</p><p>She admitted that she came to the saga a little late. It wasn't until she started hanging out with Lautner that she watched the flick to see what all the fuss was about. And now, she can't get enough of it and can't wait for "New Moon" to hit theaters in November.
</p><p>"To be honest, I really wasn't [into the 'Twilight' franchise]," she told MTV News. "I never read the books, I never saw the movie. And then, I got the wonderful opportunity of meeting Taylor, and we became friends, and I watched it 'cause I love to support my friends, and I ended up loving it."
</p><p>Selena isn't the only member of her family who's hooked on the series. "Me and my mom were like, 'OK, this movie is pretty awesome,' " she said. "We're going to the ['New Moon'] premiere."

<a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> isn't just a superstar with an album on the charts and a hit TV show on the Disney Channel &#8212; she uses her celebrity for good. She is currently UNICEF's youngest ambassador, and for the second year in a row she is the organization's spokesperson for their Trick-or-Treat campaign, which encourages kids to raise money on Halloween to help children around the world.
</p><p></p><div style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;">
<embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:443733" width="256" height="223" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashVars="configParams=instance%3Dnews%26vid%3D443733" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></div><p>
</p><p>Her duties as an ambassador took her to Ghana last month, where she says her life was completely changed by the experience. While there, she learned firsthand of the living conditions in the country. "I've been working with UNICEF for a while, so it was an honor to be able to travel, not because I wanted to help people but just because it was a life-changing experience to see how different people's lives are there," she told MTV News.
</p><p>She went on to explain that "it was such an amazing experience" that it's made her want to travel the globe even more. "I'm addicted to it now," she said. "I love to travel to other places."
</p><p>As a UNICEF ambassador, the teen star encourages other young people to get out and help, and she explained why other teens should contribute. "Not only is it a good feeling, it just makes you realize how lucky you are," she said of volunteering. "I do it all the time &#8212; I complain about the littlest things. I feel [charity work] makes you more grateful."

She's been linked to some of the biggest heartthrobs in the industry, but <a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> didn't name-check either <a href="/movies/person/373803/personmain.jhtml">Taylor Lautner</a> or <a href="/music/artist/jonas_brothers/artist.jhtml">Nick Jonas</a> when sharing her celebrity crushes with MTV News. The <i>Kiss &amp; Tell</i> singer seems to like her guys a little older.
</p><p>"I like <a href="/movies/person/313344/personmain.jhtml">Shia LaBeouf</a>. I like <a href="/movies/person/204641/personmain.jhtml">Emile Hirsch</a>, <a href="/movies/person/244285/personmain.jhtml">Ryan Gosling</a> and <a href="/music/artist/mraz_jason/artist.jhtml">Jason Mraz</a>," she said. And she even elaborated on how much she'd like to work with one of those guys in the future.

</p><p>"I would love to work with Jason Mraz 'cause I have a crush on him and he's very talented, musically and lyrically. I don't know where [he comes up with this stuff]," she said of the "I'm Yours" singer. "And I went to his concert and it was just him and guitar on a stage. And I was like &#8212; my jaw was open the entire time. I was in shock. He's beautiful. I would love [to collaborate]."
</p><p>This isn't the first time she's expressed a desire to work with one of her celebrity crushes. In several interviews, including one with MTV News last fall, <a href="/movies/news/articles/1598305/20081030/story.jhtml">she said she hoped to one day get LaBeouf on her show, "Wizards of Waverly Place."</a>
</p><p>"You'd think that as much as I promote it [he'd be coming on]," she said of trying to get the former "Even Stevens" star to make a cameo. "I'm, like, begging, but it's not happening. I know I'm a nerd! Please, Shia, come on my show!"

<title><![CDATA[Selena Gomez Made Sure Fans Could 'Relate' To <i>Kiss & Tell</i> Songs]]></title>

<a href="/music/artist/selena_gomez_and_the_scene/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> and <a href="/news/articles/1618671/20090813/gomez__selena.jhtml">her band the Scene</a> dropped their debut album, <a href="http://hollywoodcrush.mtv.com/2009/08/21/selena-gomez-releases-album-cover-art-for-kiss-tell/"><i>Kiss &amp; Tell,</i></a> last week. And just like the title suggests, the album delves into personal territory &#8212; but that doesn't mean Gomez can take credit for all the songwriting.
</p><p>"I don't think I have to write every song to have it be personal," the Disney princess told MTV News. "The entire record, I can relate to each and every one of the songs, because I probably went through 110 songs to have on the record."
</p><p></p><div style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;">
<embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:443030" width="256" height="223" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashVars="configParams=instance%3Dnews%26id%3D1623075%26vid%3D443030" wmode="transparent" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></div><p>
</p><p>Even though Gomez didn't pen all the songs, fans can rest assured that each tune has her seal of approval. "I wanted to make sure, A) I can relate to it, and B) My fans can relate to it and it's something that I went through," she explained. "And all of those songs are things that I went through, and that's why I put that all together."
</p><p>The album, which she has been working on for some time with writers like Fefe Dobson and Toby Gad, includes the first single "Falling Down." Gomez still can't believe her debut LP is finally out.
</p><p>"I went to Target the other day, and I saw my face on a CD, and that was the weirdest thing to me. I am so happy," she said. "I have been working on it for a good two years now, so for it to finally be out is this huge thing lifted off my chest, and it feels amazing. I hope my fans like it."

<p>
<a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> shared some big news about her upcoming debut album with her Twitter followers &#8212; and even revealed the name of her new band.
</p><p>"I can't wait for my record!!!" the "Wizards of Waverly Place" star <a href="http://twitter.com/selenagomez" target="_blank">tweeted</a>. "Just [so you] know, my band name is Selena Gomez and the Scene. The title of my record is called <i>Kiss &amp; Tell.</i>"
</p><p>Gomez also explained why she chose to name her band the Scene. "My band is amazing. I love them," she wrote. "I named my band the Scene because a lot of people are making fun of me calling me a 'wannabe scene,' so I thought I would poke fun [at] that. Can't beat 'em join 'em! Haha."
</p><p>On <a href="http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=302429200&blogId=503654987" target="_blank">her MySpace page</a>, she thanked her fans for being supportive of her music career. "The fact that I can say I have a record is a dream come true to me but not possible if it weren't for you guys," she wrote. "The whole process is so much fun and very therapeutic; most of my friends are amazing musically so to step into that for a while has been an incredible experience for me."
</p><p>She added that the music is "fun, energetic, empowering." "I'm still new and still figuring out where I want to be musically," she said. "But I think this is a good start ... hopefully."
</p><p>Last summer, <a href="/news/articles/1592286/20080806/gomez__selena.jhtml">Gomez told MTV News</a> that she planned to start a band. "I basically want to make music that is fun and that parents and kids can jump around to and have a good time to," she said. "I will be singing, and I'm learning drums and playing electric guitar."

<p>
Taylor Swift might be adding a new collaborator to her roster if <a href="/music/artist/gomez__selena/artist.jhtml">Selena Gomez</a> has anything to say about it. After <a href="/news/articles/1604173/20090203/cyrus__miley.jhtml">Swift's duet with Miley Cyrus on her song "Fifteen"</a> at the Grammy Awards, it seems that Selena Gomez is ready to get on the Taylor train, <a href="http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00022169.html" target="_blank">according to AceShowbiz.com.</a>
</p><p>The teen recently shared that she'd love to work with Swift in the near future, adding that the girls have already chatted about it. "We have talked about a duet," Selena said. "I think it would be really neat to have the country vibe."
</p><p><a href="/music/artist/swift__taylor/artist.jhtml">Taylor</a>, who once again has the #1 album in the country with her November release <i>Fearless,</i> seems a likely candidate for Selena to work with on her album, which is due out sometime in July. She explains that she'd like to work with Taylor because she "is not just plain country, [but] she's got a little pop edge to her."
</p><p>Selena added, "It's something I really admire, so we want to write a really awesome country-rock song ... it sounds a little weird but we're totally down for that."
</p><p>Before then, though, Gomez will be busy shooting the <a href="/movies/news/articles/1598305/20081030/story.jhtml">TV movie for the "Wizards of Waverly Place"</a> in Puerto Rico. And what can fans expect from the movie version of the hit TV show? "Lots of crazy cool stuff &#8212; big wizard battles," her co-star David Henrie told MTV News. "We are going to be in the tropical forest, so [there's] lots of adventure. The premise is we win a trip and go on vacation."
</p><p>Henrie also dished that despite Selena being a huge star, there are no egos on-set, adding, "It's a lot different than most people's working environments. We're so much closer than a lot of other casts. There's always a tension &#8212; it's not there with us. We've created an environment that has created a success."

<p>
The Jonas Brothers are three guys who shouldn't have any trouble finding themselves a Valentine. While, Kevin Jonas and Joe Jonas still appear to be going strong with their respective ladies, it appears that young Nick is once again single.
</p><p>Kevin is currently linked to hometown girl Danielle Deleasa (they both grew up in Wyckoff, New Jersey), and <a href="/news/articles/1599163/20081112/jonas_brothers.jhtml">Joe is dating "Push" star Camilla Belle</a>. Both had "no comment" about their dating lives when asked by a fan on "The Insider" on Thursday night if they were dating anyone. Meanwhile, 16-year-old Nick, who had been most recently rumored to be <a href="/news/articles/1602780/20090115/jonas_brothers.jhtml">dating "Wizards of Waverly Place" star Selena Gomez</a>, replied that these days he's single. (It's a good thing his mom is <a href="/news/articles/1605030/20090212/jonas_brothers.jhtml">his Valentine this year</a>.)
</p><p>When the guys made their first appearance on <a href="http://lateshow.cbs.com/latenight/lateshow/video_player/index/php/978274.phtml" target="_blank">"The Late Show with David Letterman,"</a> also on Thursday night, Letterman got the boys to open up about their former flames.
</p><p>"We went on tour with Miley [Cyrus]," Nick said about his relationship with the Disney star. He jokingly added, "Again, going back to the ups and downs, I think that I was 14, so it's, you know, I was pretty young, so I think you can just consider it a young little relationship."
</p><p>Though Kevin stayed mum during the interrogation, Joe goofed around about his much-discussed <a href="/news/articles/1599032/20081110/swift__taylor.jhtml">relationship with Taylor Swift</a>. When Letterman mentioned her name, Joe looked around the room, before teasingly saying, "No, um, yeah, you know, we didn't work out."
</p><p>Letterman, on a roll after his rather interesting Wednesday-night exchange with <a href="/movies/news/articles/1604929/20090212/story.jhtml">Joaquin Phoenix</a>, quickly quipped that Joe's youth makes it easy for him to be so nonchalant about the breakup. "Yeah, it's funny now, but try saying that when you're 62."
