Selena Gomez Releases 'Come & Get It' With 'No Regrets'

Selena Gomez spent last week teasing fans with snippets of her new single "Come & Get It," and over the weekend she gave them the whole thing, a bit earlier than expected.
After the song was leaked early, Selena released the Stargate-produced track on Ryan Seacrest's website on Saturday, two days before it was scheduled to drop and eight days before she's scheduled to perform it at the MTV Movie Awards.

The new track combines a bhangra beat and vocal with a club-ready vibe and a dreamy bridge. And she seems completely onboard with her love affair on the dance track. "You got the kind of love that I want, let me get that/ And baby once I get it I'm yours no take backs/ I'm gon' love you for life I ain't leaving your side," she sings. "Even if you knock it ain't no way to stop it / Forever you're mine baby I'm addicted; no lie."

And, she addressed the leak in a video message to her fans.

"Hey guys, so my song got leaked today, my first single," she said. "I'm actually kind of excited because you can finally hear it! And I hope you guys like it."

The debut got so much attention that her Selenators managed to crash Seacrest's website. "Can't even stand it. #selenatorsarethebest," she tweeted on Saturday and one day later still seemed amped by the response. She wrote, "You guys made my day all day today. #Comeandgetitnow. Love you guys XOXO."

"Come & Get It" is the lead single off her summer album release. Gomez will perform the song at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards on April 14 when she takes the stage in Culver City.

Acting Out Because of Heartbreak Over Selena

Justin Bieber has been spinning out of control not because he's trying to "act like an adult," not because his friends are a bad influence ... but because he's suffering his first case of heartbreak -- courtesy of Selena Gomez -- so say people who are in daily contact with the singer.

Our sources tell us ... Justin was "torn apart" when Selena pulled the plug on their relationship in December, when she walked out on him in the middle of their Mexico vacation.

We're told Justin feels "tortured," because Selena has not made a clean break -- far from it.  We're told she is regularly calling him and sending him mixed messages, and it's been messing with his head.

That could explain why Justin went to Selena's L.A. home last week, but hasn't been seen there since.

Our sources say ... the pot smoking in Newport Beach, the reckless driving and the fighting has all occurred after the split, and they say it's very clear that Bieber is holding a lot of anger that he's releasing ... often inappropriately.

Movie Review: Spring Breakers

Spring Breakers will owe its box office success to its continual shots of bosoms and bottoms, not always covered by bikinis.

I'm not sure I ever saw the personal parts of Disney stars Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens, but it looked as if writer-director Harmony Korine exhausted the studio warehouse of flashes of teenage bodies bouncing around, in film stock ranging from standard to super-grainy amateur, imitating what we used to call cinema verite and are now expected to accept as reality.
The whole thing looks like amateur exploitation until, suddenly, James Franco, of all people, shows up and things start to get sporadically grim and grimmer.

Franco is surprisingly convincing as a gang leader with gold-plated front teeth and a big, wide, phony-looking smile that served him poorly in Oz the Great and Powerful, but suits him perfectly here. Both he and the movie as a whole are conspicuously delicate about the prostitution that seems almost inevitable, but the gang world is appropriately sleazy and ugly. And if Gomez, Hudgens and company aren't repelled by it, they were not exactly innocent doves to start with, having financed their spring adventure with armed robbery.

These characters are so shallow that not much acting is called for, even by Franco. About the only "reality" we experience is in the deliberate crudeness of the camera and editing techniques, and even this is undercut by obvious use of flashy-then-subdued color, not to mention contrast cuts between practically satanic orgy shots and stone-cold police stations or dark, wet streets inhabited only by people in serious trouble.

There is a surprise in the very last spoken lines, but otherwise Spring Breakers is pretty predictable from the moment Franco makes clear that this is not a comedy.

The boys of Big Time Rush gave Perry big hugs as they presented her with the award. "I love the kids!" she screamed on stage at the USC Galen Center in L.A. "Stay safe and stay in school. Have a good time, stay in school!"

But the "Wide Awake" singer Perry didn't show any sign of heartbreak during the show, and was seen laughing and posing for silly pictures with pals Stewart and Gomez on the carpet and backstage.

Perry pulled Stewart, 22, onto her lap while sitting in the audience with Gomez, 20, and the three girls smiled for a funny photo.

Stewart, wearing Osman, and Gomez, styling Oscar de la Renta, were also big winners during the evening. The Twilight actress took home the award for Favorite Movie Actress, while the Wizards of Waverly Place star won Favorite Television Actress.

Selena Gomez Single And 'Really' Enjoying Life Without Justin Bieber

Selena Gomez may have ended her two year relationship with Justin Bieber, but she has no regrets.

The actress and singer, 20, stopped by "Chelsea Lately" with her co-star Vanessa Hudgens and opened up about her life post-Bieber. When Chelsea Handler asked the former Disney star if she was enjoying life without a boyfriend, a beaming Gomez replied, "Yes, I really am!"

Handler then congratulated the newly single star, saying, "Enjoy this, girl. You're 20 years old. You've got a lot of men ahead of you ... have a blast!"

Earlier this week, Gomez made an appearance on "The Late Show With David Letterman" and poked fun at her 19-year-old ex, joking that she made him cry.

"The last time he was on, he and I got into a conversation and he said something, then I said something," Letterman said. "And I made him cry."

"Well then, that makes two of us," Gomez quipped.

The "Spring Breakers" star has been on a roll lately, proving to the all those Beliebers that she is, in fact, over Bieber.

Selena Gomez Got 'Uncomfortable' With 'Wizards Of Waverly Place' Costume

If you needed a Selena Gomez double dose this weekend, the starlet served it up Friday night.

The "Spring Breakers" star went back to her roots, playing Disney wizard Alex Russo in "The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex,". Coincidentally it aired on the Mouse House the same day her Harmony Korine flick hit theaters in limited release. And while the "Wizards of Waverly Place" special certainly was family-friendly, it still showed off her naughty side thanks to an appearance from Alex's evil twin.
"Awkward." star Beau Mirchoff got the chance to play off Gomez's Disney bad girl, sharing that he enjoyed being on set with that version of her. "I think bad Selena was pretty fun. She's very sassy. That tight leather outfit was pretty funny as well. It looked very uncomfortable. Her doing flips and being in this tight harness, I can't imagine that was too comfortable," he told MTV News.

So did Mirchoff get a chance to don the full-leather look too?

"I didn't want to upstage her; it's her show," he joked. "I didn't want to be rude. But I did get to wear that cool punk rocker jacket thing as the evil wizard, which was pretty cool."

With bad Alex and Mirchoff's Dominic working side-by-side to cast evil spells, he shared that it felt reminiscent of another famous TV duo. "It kind of reminded me of, I was a big 'Pinky and the Brain' fan when I was younger, so I thought it was kind of funny, kind of like that. But the whole episode was kind of out there. It's really creative," he said.

He added, "It was amazing. It's kind of similar to theater in a way; the multi-cam, the long takes and it's all staged, and in that aspect you can really get into every take and really kind of get the tone of it and the feeling of it. That really helped for this specific character."

When it was all wrapped, Beau took some very important advice with him. And, it was the kind that only Selena Gomez could give. He shared, "She gave some advice on how to wield a wand. Actually I really didn't know how. That was one of my biggest questions, is how to work the wand properly. I didn't want to look like a fake wizard. So she taught me. It's all in the wrists basically."

Selena Gomez Joined 'Spring Breakers' Because Of ... Her Mom?

'I watched all of his movies with my mom ... and I wanted to be a part of it,' Gomez says of mom being a fan of director Harmony Korine.
Despite the fact that things got "awkward" for Selena Gomez in "Spring Breakers," she never wavered in her decision to sign on to the Harmony Korine-directed film.


And while it's much more risque than anything she's done in the past, it was her mom (yes, her mom) who gave her the extra boost she needed to agree to it.
"Well, my mom is actually a big Harmony Korine fan, and we got the script through my agency," she told MTV News during a chat at South by Southwest. "I read it, I watched all of his movies with my mom and [watched] interviews, and I wanted to be a part of it."

Once her mind was made up, she met with Korine, the mind behind other controversial flicks like "Kids" and "Trash Humpers," and his wife, co-star Rachel Korine. "So I actually flew to Nashville, to Harmony and Rachel's house, and auditioned with him for about an hour and half," Gomez recalled. "I actually read with Rachel too, and I got the part."

"Spring Breakers" opens in limited release Friday (it goes wide on March 22), the same day Gomez revisits her clean-cut Disney alter ego Alex Russo in the "Wizards of Waverly Place" movie "The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex." Gomez said she didn't take the role just to show that she can play a naughtier character; it was the chance to expand her skills as an actor that drew her to the Harmony project.

"It wasn't necessarily about the reaction as it was just for me wanting to do something that was creatively challenging for me, because acting is everything to me," she said. "And it's the reason why I'm here."

She hoped the role would "really challenge myself and to see how far I could go. I thought Harmony was the perfect director to trust. And these girls were amazing, and James [Franco] is obviously incredible in this movie, so it was kind of a no-brainer for me."

"Spring Breakers" might be rated R, but soon it will also be "Rated MTV: Movie Awards Edition." MTV's Josh Horowitz will sit down with the ladies for an upcoming edition of "Rated MTV." Nick Offerman kicked off the six weeks of sit-downs last week when he chatted about "Somebody Up There Likes Me," and this week, Olivia Wilde joins us to open up about "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone."

The specials lead up to the third annual MTV Movie Awards Sneak Peek Week, which will run from April 8 through April 12, with a special airing every night at 11 p.m. ET. The cast of a film will be on hand to present an on-air clip before heading to MTV.com for a 30-minute sit-down interview with Horowitz. Stay tuned for more information.

Also, don't forget to tune into the Rebel Wilson-hosted MTV Movie Awards on April 14, airing live from the Sony Pictures Studio Lot in Culver City, California, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
