Selena Gomez Hates The Word Hypocrite
Selena Gomez is almost done filming her new flick, Ramona and Beezus, in Vancouver but popped in on her MySpace to say a few words to her fans. Check out what the 16-year-old starlet had to say:
“The one thing I love about being connected with my fans is that i can grow with you guys. We are all going through lots of the same things and I love that i can relate to all of you. There is one thing that kind of hurts if I may share with you guys, a word that no one should be called when they are growing is… hypocrite.
“My reasoning behind me disliking this word is because I believe we are all changing, growing and learning new things about ourselves everyday. I don’t know about you guys but i feel like a complete different person from when I was 13, 14, and 15 and I’m pretty sure this feeling will occur again.”
(Click inside for the rest of Selena’s update…)
“Things that we may have liked or loved one year ago may be things we won’t ever mention again and don’t want to either. I remember when I was 12 telling my friends I would never ever wear dresses because i thought they were too prissy. Now I own more floral dresses than pants. Or how I hated mustard and gagged at the sight of it, now I will not touch a hot dog without it. I also said that I would never fall in love until I was much older to really understand the word…..
“I am trailing off but my question for you guys is what have you said that may be completely different now? It’s an interesting conversation starter I must say. The bummer about that part for me is I kind of get documented saying it……….The number one thing in my life besides my family and friends is you guys and my job and I would love the chance to grow and CHANGE with you of course, that is if you allow me to…If you give me that chance i will be forever grateful. thank you. God bless - Sel.”

at first i thought she was just some annoying 16 year old. but the more i read about her, the more i actually really like her
aaw selena.
yea, but if someone’s a hypocrite you call them out on it. some people just need to be told
Who is calling her a hypocrite?
i’m talking about in general, not her specifically
am i the only one who caught this?
” I also said that I would never fall in love until I was much older to really understand the word…..”
hmm, i my be reading intot his alot but, who is she talking about. and a lot of people are calling her and demi hypocrites on other sites because they are ‘chnaging’ when really they are growing up.
“I also said that I would never fall in love until I was much older to really understand the word…”
omg. she’s in love. with taylor lautner.
you are amazing sel and we love you so much .
@diane n.: if yall didnt catch my drift, i was being sarcastic about the whole who part. her and taylor must be real serious now. and i meant to put ‘changing’
love her. so effin’ much.
and I dislike the word ‘hypocrite’ mainly because people who use it tend to not use it correctly. They just constantly throw the word around.
shes a dumb fake hoe get out of here taylor deserves so much better
I think some are calling her hypocrites because in her latest interview from Teen vogue she said she will never date a guy in the hollywood business again…
that interview was conducted before she met Taylor…and word in the street is the public is confuse over her statment and the fact she is seen with an actor ..
I love her and I understand that people change their opinion and she’s deff not a hypocrtie…
so it’s cool in my book
she’s my favorite disney actress - she seems so honest, it’s nice. she acts her age. she doesn’t act like it’s a bummer to be who she is and to have paparazzi running after her all the time - but at the same time she isn’t a fame *****. she’s sixteen years old, and so sure of things… she seems true to herself to me and I can see what she’s saying. Actually, I know what whe’s saying. People growing up shouldn’t be called hypocrites. We’re changing. things we don’t like now might grow on our eyes in the future…
I wonder what brought this up…
shut the **** up ***** eveeeryone agress sel and tay are perfect for each other so you need to get the **** out of here blair no one gives a **** what you think blair if its not nice so go on and get a fucken life you dumbshit/!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU SELENA PEOPLE HAVE TO CHANGE AND ITS JUST SO HARD FOR OTHERS TO UNDERSTAND!!! I TOTALLY CONNECT WITH YOU SEL!!! GOD BLESS YOU TOO!!
Selena is my favorite Disney star, period. She’s basically my saving grace for the Disney Channel. She just seems so genuine and level headed. It’s nice to see a talented young artist who is grateful and has a passion for their work. It’s rare to see that nowadays. She has a bright future ahead of her–I hope nothing but the best for her.
i love her so much! she’s so beautiful and real.
you freakin rock selena gomez.love you so much
SELENA YOUR MY INSPIRATION
WISH YOU THE BEST IN THIS MEAN CRUEL WORLD
AS I SEE YOUR GOING FAR IN YOUR SUCESS
BEST OF LUCK
LOVE YOU SELENA
@Priya:
that is what i thought ! selena is definitely telling us something subtly.
She’s in love or starting to develop strong feelings for Taylor?
Hmmm?
I LOVE THE SUDDLE PART ABOUT NOT FALLING N LOVE! HAHAHA *wink wink*
also
I THINK THAT SELZ NOT ONLY TALKING ABOUT HER SELF BEING CALLED THAT BUT ALSO I THINK SHE’S TALKING ABOUT DEMI BEING CALLED THAT. because EVERY1 KEEPS SAYING SHE’S CHANGING AND SHE’S BEING “FAKE”
sooo hmmm
Selena has been my favorite celebrity since the beginning of her Disney Channel career. There is just something about her that made me, and probably many others, feel that she was different. She is such an inspiration from her works to her words, and I can tell that she is definitely growing up. I don’t know what caused her to bring up this subject, but I think this is one of the turning points of her childhood into pre-”adult”hood. Throwing in something like “love” has to mean something… Selena is so talented and seems like a wonderful girl. She is a great role model and I’m glad that there is someone like her for me and many girls/boys to look up to at this age. I’m sure as time passes, people will change, in a sense of growing up and experiencing things and learning. Selena is just making sure that we know that she’s just a normal person who’s hit that stage where things aren’t so childish anymore. I think she’s developing a relationship that makes her different as a person, but only in a good way. I’m happy for Selena and I only wish her good things.
Wow, I just love her!
She is realizing this at such a young age, I’m 3 years older than her and still trying to understand this. She’s so clever.
More love for Selena, she deserves it!.
she ’s sweet and a wonderful actress…but i think she is trying to tell us something. either something that happened or that she’s going to change .
@EVERY1ROXX….FTW!: It may have something to do with Demi. Selena’s only being a good friend and protecting Demi. Although Demi may seem to be changing, it’s all a part of finding out who she are and learning from her experiences. Demi just needs to find her way and who she is, so we should just give her time and space to breathe. Maybe the whole media thing has caught up with her and she’s just lost in the fame… I think this experience will help Selena stay grounded and not get lost in the glory.

Awwh!
The girl needs to just be careful of what she says sometimes…because she always says something then goes back on it…she just isn’t really sure of what she wants and she just needs to say that
omg! SHES SOO DATING TAYLOR
i cant believ she said that, i hate her so much…n yess say wat u will but i donno why i dont cant stand herr
grrr!
Aww….I Love what she said. I really think that she and taylor are really going out now ’cause of what she said.
And who ever calls Selena a hypocrite are WRONG!!!!!!!!!
@Michelle: WOW!! I love what you’re saying about Selena, I totally agree with you. Also, I got inspired by Selena ever since she first appeared in Disney.
i love her soooooooooooo much.
she so down to earth and very beautiful.
her, ashley and miley are my favs at disney.
please support ashley and vote for at mtv
she really deserves it.
vote ashley
vote ashley
she’s so great unlike m****
@Dbhb:
Really? no need to be mean.
there are amazing girls so stop comparing them.
i think it may have something to do with the teen vogue article if people are calling her an hypocrite; you know because of how she said she wasn’t going to date anyone in the industry, go for someone normal, and now shes dating taylor, but if it is to do with that its not hypocritical that much because you can’t help who you end up liking, taylor seems like a really nice, genuine guy, who has morals and comes from a nice family who’s doing a job many people wouldn’t have the chance to do, and so is selena…an i think, that shes a great inspiration to many people, and to say shes only 16 she has a great sensible mind…many people, like myself, at 18 years old are still making mistakes, an trying to figure out what to do in life…her fans should just stick by her, and the haters who are calling her an hypocrite, she shouldn’t listen to her, because all what matters is that she continues to do what she does, and be with people who she wants to be no matter who that may be.
She’s hypocrite, I don’t know where is his problem…
tss, if guys say she is hypocryte, i think that real
because we hate the reality when they say it
well selena is hypocryte then
Lesson for teen girls:
-Don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house.
-If you’re changing, don’t make statements with authority, admit that your views might change as you grow older.
-Don’t do things for fame or because your studio asks you to but because you believe in them or you know FOR SURE you will never turn back on your words. e,g purity rings, being a goody two shoes.
-Better to be yourself and be branded a bad girl than start off playing the good girl and find you can’t maintain it. As the hymn says - He that is down needs fear no fall - but when you set yourself on a pedestal that is not you, that word is sure to be used a lot, unfortunately.
-If that word can’t be used for one person, it can’t be used for any. You can not let her off the hook for making statements that she can not live up to especially when she benefited at the time from making those statements at the expense of others and yet crucify people like Miley (I’m no fan).
Miley is a year younger than her and has had to do her changing and growing with the whole world watching and using those words on her.
Both girls have not been consistent with their words, you can’t excuse one and crucify the other.
Some of these fans admiring her I’m sure were among those ‘disappointed with Ashley for drinking and going clubbing though she’s 24 and entitled to do so. Your disappointment was because she had made a big fuss of never going clubbing and now had to go back on her words.
It’s common with Disney stars so if you have to give one person a chance, you’ve got to give the others as well else that word-hypocrite-will apply.
EVERYBODY is changing, some are just more careful about pretending to be Mother Theresa.
-If you want what others have and can’t get it yet, stop pretending you don’t want it because you can’t get it, when you are able to get it, it makes it harder to go back on your words.
Do I think she should be given a chance? Of course! Same as everyone else.
Unfortunately, this is part of the price of fame, people are going to call her out on it just as other teen stars have been called out for going back on their words and they are not entirely wrong, it’s called discipline and accountability.
I remember pointing out when she burst into the scene with her purity ring statement that she should be careful with making statements as she would take them back as she grows.
She should take responsibility that she did go back on her words, swallow the criticism and get on with her life much wiser and more careful with her words. She can only get better and be free to be herself.
It’s a good lesson to learn and it’s good she’s learning it. Be yourself no matter how much people criticize you and sometimes, ‘I don’t know yet’ and ‘I’m not sure’ or ‘It depends’ are perfectly good answers.
I wasn’t a die-hard fan of her before, but i used to like her! But I now LOVE her! She has changed so much…in a good way!
And even if she’s changing, i love her even more! She’s such a good role model, and for people saying that she thinks she’s perfect, stop it! She might have her flaws (like everyone else) but she doesn’t want to show it! And for people calling her fake, go check Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt!
Her show is the only thing good on disney! As much as I LOVE demi, her show just isn’t funny! I still haven’t got a chance to watch JONAS
@jenny: Aww…..i love selena soooo much! She’s a great role model, and i agree with jenny!
thats coz she is a hypocrite!!
wow im surprised you low-life selena fans arnt bashing on poor miley. im so happy, you guys are finaly not being dicks !! good job guys, NOT.
well i kinda agree with selena we all change wen we grow up, but to be aunist, im a “say it to your face” kind of guy, if theres something i dont like or think you should know baout i say it to your face, thats probably why i dont get along wit most people, cause i basicallycall them out, but were all hypocrits in this world, every single person is, some of us have said things before and some of us still say it now, i stop a long time ago, but we have all said something once that obviously made or makes us a hyporcrit, so beleive it or not, we all were, or still are. selena aparently from my point of view, could have been, i know i usto be a hypocrite. and im not afriad to admit
cause in this big world, ESPECIALY with teenagers, we all go through life basically being hypocrits. but i know im not one anymore 
and for selena: niceway to tiipping us off “I also said that I would never fall in love until I was much older to really understand the word…..” mmm that should creat up a stir 
@ Naomi # 29
You wrote a lot of things down for teen girls to learn
But you forgot the most important one
and from what i’ve read you have to learn it yourself too.
The important lesson for girls is to not take everything seriously a 16 year old famous teen said!
You are also going to say things now and over maybey 10 years doing the opposite.
We call that growing up!
Every famous person said things and later on doing something different.
And haven’t you thought about Selena may be a good kid and doesn’t want to take ‘bad’ pictures.
She was talking about herself not wanna be called hypocrite.
If Miley or another person don’t wanna be called that way they should say it there selfs.
Selena doesn’t have to defend those persons!
But for the next time, just write down you don’t like her, it saves you a lot of time.
And I respect your ‘lessons’ and other things you wrote their
but I have to say I DISAGREE with almost everything you wrote their
@ Kevin #31
At first you’re saying every person is a hypocrite
And then you’re saying you aren’t any more?
Good way to make your point. NOT
Selena is always true to herself. I love her!
@ Sarah #33
good day.
haha you should read the details
i said every person either was or still is a hypocrite
so beofre you deicde to start a war up with me
i suggest you should start getting into the post’s detail a bit more
and nice post in #32 sadly no one cares enough to read it
ahahahahahaha kevin XD
but i love the war.
basically all i want to say is.
selena sucks balls.
and #29 and #31 and 34 was right.
sarah give it up, no one gives a crap
I agree with her in some sense, that people are allowed to grow and change however I hate hypocrites and some people are just that. Hypocrites.
For example a girl who is blatently bitchin about someone behind there back and then an hour later is being all best friendy to them Thats not growing and changing, thats plain hypocritical.
1 John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
‘but were all hypocrits in this world, every single person is’
hmm so your not saying there that every person’s a hypocrite?
@ Sam
You obviously care about the comment I made else, you weren’t
commenting on it
And if Selena sucks balls why do you even bother to come on SELENA’S
Post???
@ANGEL:
bingo. I think that is what she is saying also. that folks use the word wrong and thus should stop using it. which is a very mature thing to think and say and even though generally the whole Disney gang annoys me to no end, I applaud her statements because she is correct. Kids do change and should be allowed to do so without fear. just like kids should be allowed to make mistakes and learn from them. and that includes celeb kids. they aren’t suddenly perfect little angels because they are celebs.
its funny how she brings this up because on oceanup they were just blasting demi for “changing” or “being fake”.
ive always loved selena. still do
@Sarah:
It’s obvious you don’t have comprehension skills. If you did, you wouldn’t make that reply because it does not address the issues in my post except you were replying to another comment.
My point was precisely that a 16 year old shouldn’t make definite statements because they’re still growing BUT that applies to BOTH Miley and Selena.
You can’t say we shouldn’t take Selena’s statements seriously but take Miley’s seriously, who is more famous and who is older?
Your comment is an example of why hypocrisy might be applied to her. When her fans like you abuse Miley of making mistakes, you never know if Selena will ever make those mistakes in two years time. Nobody knows.
But then, Disney fans like to abuse stars they’re not fans of and then when theor own stars falter they start defending them for things they’ve crucified others for. That is HYPOCRISY.
FYI, I used to be mildly interested in Selena till she started with the miss goody two-shoes act and wearing purity rings adn the whole dating saga.
I wasn’t the only one she pissed off with that attitude. She lost some adult fans, you can go back through the archives for the JJ post when she came up with the purity ring and see how she pissed potential adult fans.
You see some of us unlike teens, do not like pretense, I’ll rather support someone who is imperfect, admits to be imperfect and doesn’t claim to be good or a good role model, because I’m older and I know everyone makes mistakes no matter what they say when they’re young.
She’s learning that hard lesson now, maybe you fans should learn it as well and stop calling some good and others bad. You just make it worse for the ‘good’ ones when they make any little mistake, cause everyone will jump on them.
Except you’re SURE, no picture will EVER surface of Selena and she will never CHANGE from what she is now, keeping abusing Miley because of her pictures.
Obviously, most of you missed the gist of what she’s saying.
I love Selena. However, I still wish she and David Henrie are together.
@naomi,
Who said I was talking about Miley??
There are a lot of other people who made ‘bad pictures’…
And you’re right about in the future there could be photos of Selena
swarming around the net. But it could also possibly be that there aren’t going to be photos of her.
And how can you say her miss goody two-shoes act if you don’t even know her?
Don’t you think there could be a possible way she IS like people see her?
I’m not saying Selena’s perfect b/c no one is, but I’m getting sick of people who’re thinking they know other people, that goes the same for Miley and all the other people out there.
That’s why when I said bad pictures I also said may be
And that’s also why I think teens shouldn’t see other teens as role models
selene is amazign and a grate celb. and she is no dating taylor……
I also said that I would never fall in love until I was much older to really understand the word…
SHES TALKING ABOUT TAYLOR LAUTNER!!!
who else??
this blog was posted because peopel on oceanup kept calling her a hypocrite on all the posts about her there and dug up old quotes and stuff
this blog has made me love her even more tho
because she seems so classy, and knows how to put her thoughts forward in a way thats not rude
i am lost.. she has not share anything really with any of us she kept all the thing pretty much personal which i dont blame her but why even mention things to us her fans when she is not even clarifying herself. were supposed to grow together yea right, were supposed to make her famous thats the right word she should have said
im sorry im just lost
Reason why i love selena is just because of her INTELLIGENCE and ELEGANCY, i do personally think she should sign out of disney and began her real acting career if she wants to be serious. Disney fans dont seem to appreciate her at all because she has potential. its Reality, once someone is doing something better than another person in whatever situation or matter of debate they start hating you. i dont like demi nor miley not because there better then selena but because they have differennt motive then selena.
HATE HER WITH PASSION!
SHE IS A HYPOCRITE.
i hate to say this . but she is definetely the most gifted teen disney has ever hired in a million decade. she has a passion for her work yet she want to let herself be known to her fans as she take on challenges in life.
im only 15 yet i have so much i can relate to her.
Brazil love you Sel
anna, go to school honey PLEASE
anna, really go to school hon.
Well, Selena Gomez is currently dating Taylor Lautner. So, maybe him. I doubt it’s Nick Jonas. For no one can prove that they actually dated. <3 Peace, Love, and Jonas :’D
Don’t call Selena a hypocrite because she’s not…
@blair: somebody’s jealous
Selena is a role model, for every girl trust me …. she’s not only pretty but she knows how to dress decent not like others and i am not pointing on miley cyrus “showing all her bobs” fraks me out . but i like miley cyrus 2. Selena inspires fashion and talent and beuty. i love selena Taylor Swift & Selena Gomez rock my world
Awwww, she’s sweet. Selena is my fave Disney Channel star, shes really down-to-earth and loves her fans. Also, she basically implies she has fallen in love
I wish Taylor and her all the best, they are such an amazing couple 
I think this is all about the whole teen vouge interview where she said she wouldn’t date another actor or singer or celeberty at all. period and she did the interview a couple of months back before she met taylor and she’s eigther falling inlove with him or devoloping strong feelings for him so she’s trying to say she changes her mind alot( which i’ve noticed alot that she does) and thats all apart of being a teenagers and as teenagers we do that ALOT but we don’t catch ourselves because we’r not living the same life as hers and what ever she says alot gets documented so it’s kinda harder of her, but i’m begging to really like her before i showed her little or no attention but lately she’s catched my eye and she is an awesome role model to kids and a wondeful role model, so people or crazy die hard fans of taylor who are syaing you hate her i don’t inderstand do you honestly think he’d EVER go out with a fan ecspecially ones that are craziii as yall are? he doens’t even know you are alive much less go out with you so it’s no point in hating her. it’s stupid you don’t know her enough to hate her
ilubh taylena! they are so perfect together..anyways… ireally lubh selena coz’ she’s so artistic and a good person!
wow she is just amazing such a nice person i wasnt in to the whole disney crew but now she started seeing Taylor wanted to see who she really was do some research and found she loves her fans to death she so dedicated to them and greatful so now im also a selena fan and a taylor fan and looks like she fallen for him awww
OMG is for the new friendship between miley and demi ???????????
i remember demi and selena WAS bff but now i dont understand !!!
Uh…No one called Selena a hypocrite. She’s FAR from that. That’s Demi Lovato. I’m not gonna change in the La La Land machine? HA! Whatta tan HYPOCRITE!
Selena, you don’t have to defend Demi.
OMG who called her that! She growing up shes no hypocrite! We love you selena!
@Jessica: actually i think she meant him by that love line cuz her and tay have be going out - if they r even going out for probably only a month that’s way 2 fast for love so that’s y i think it could be nick. just hope she doesn’t still love him if it is so
@mafer: yeah me either i don’t understand how u go from omg she’s my best friend in the world love her even wrote a song for her 2 not so much but now i love miley. i’m not saying u can’t have more than 1 best friend but it just seem like she ditched selena. does anyone else get that vibe that they aren’t friends and if they r its like barely? and who do u guys think changed?
Selena was a very good role model to each of us who like her so much.
I admit she’s been very special for me. as my 2nd role model. I really like her so much.
i totally agree with selena!! she is an awesome person with good morals! she rocks!!
i love you Selena Gomez!!
i just love her ^^
she´s so mature and wise
aww por esoo la amooo
linda*.*
Vanessa and Miley have been called hypocrites too. They are in the sam fix as Selena.
@blair: awwww.. you’re sweet. you’re dumb to click on this link ABOUT a ‘dumb hoe’ and comment on it. don’t judge people you don’t even know.
@blair:
Hows she a hoe? This just proves shes more mature than you. I suppose by ”Taylor Deserves so much better” you mean you? Ha. Riiight…Im sure he wants someone who goes around calling Disney stars hoes, Because that totally makes sence.
Anyway, Selena proves here that she truly is amazing. Shes one of the stars that doesn’t get caught up in all of the fame. That in itself is pretty awesome.
& You can’t seriously hate her for dating Taylor if she is… I mean, just LOOK at the boy! And plus hes a sweetheart. Shes pretty lucky
well, sorry to all the mega selena fans, but she IS slightly hypocritical.. saying how she won’t date someone from entertainment business and now she’s dating taylor… she’s being hypocritical… but whatever, we’re all growing and it’s understandable.
she’s TOTES gorgeous in that pic by the way.
OMG SHES IN LOVE WITH TAYLOR LAUTNER!!!!!!…thats cute but im jealous.
aaaaahhhhhhh……………………
selena’s awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love her sooooo much
and whoever calls sel a hypocrite is sooooo WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ki:
Yeah me too on her twitter she’s always talking about miley how she misses her and loves her, personly i use to adore demi i thought she was so cute and she was diff then all the disney cru but lately she’s changed and if anyones a hippocrite it’s her i’m not gunna change in the lala land machine ya right!<< she changed her whole look and everything got tan. alot of my friends are saying that she uses evrybody to go up in the social climb The jonasbrothers and miley ecspecially i don’t believe she could do that…or could she?
hi selena you are you are so cool it wout be asome to meet you you rock
hannah
morris
hi slena you rock you are so cool
Wow! Take that Chris Jericho!
I love Selena Gomez, she’s a great person to look up to in my opinion. I wish her the best of luck, and I think she should be happy with whoever. I dont see, I mean why don’t people realize, that even though you cuss her out just because of the guy she is dating, it WILL NOT stop her from dating him if she really likes him. People really should stop calling her “The Next Miley Cyrus” because she is her own person, she isn’t taking on the image of someone else.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SELENA! I will always watch wizards as long as Alex keeps getting into trouble! (:
