Selena Gomez Talks Secrets of Her Life
Selena Gomez has been interviewed by Los Angeles Times to talk about the secrets of her life. During her interview with the newspaper, the "Wizards of Waverly Place" cutie revealed she was addicted to tabloids.

"Recently, I have not. I'm actually very, very proud of myself. Honestly, the blog sites and everything -- I'd be on them nonstop," the 16-year-old girl told LA Times. "I've gone four weeks total without looking at them and I'm very proud and very happy. I was addicted. It was bad."

Selena also revealed that actress Rachel McAdams is her career role model, saying "I absolutely look up to her in every way possible because she's made so many wonderful decisions." The teen actress added, "I think it's wonderful that she spreads herself out. You notice that she reinvents herself in every character that she portrays. You don't see her playing one role over and over."

The Disney star further said thinking about home can make her cry. "I'm from Texas, and I don't get to go home often. I miss the normality and also that it's not so populated. I'm from a small town, and I still love going home and being able to drive at 7 in the morning and there not be any traffic. And I miss my family. They're the reason I am the person I am today," Selena explained.
