Selena Gomez Talks Turning 30 and Says She’d LOVE to Reboot ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ (Exclusive)

It is a summer to celebrate for Selena Gomez! She just toasted friend Britney Spears at her wedding to Sam Asghari, turns 30 this summer, and is dropping Season 2 of her Hulu show ‘Only Murders in the Building.’ ‘Extra’s’ Katie Krause caught up with Selena and her co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short at their red-carpet premiere. ‘Only Murders in the Building’ Season 2 is streaming on Hulu now.

I kinda feel bad for Steve Martin, he was like “I’m turning the big 8-0!” and it didn’t really get a reaction. Turning 80 and the fact that he’s still a working actor and looks great for his age is super impressive!

[@Happygirlalwaysnomatter]

Let alone that good in shape and super coherent he is winning in LIFE! :)

Is he being serious? He really doesn't look 80.

It's nice that Selena is proud of her WOWP lots of ex Disney stars never want to talk about their shows

[@kp782]

Except lizzie mcquire and hannah montana

[@lolabrini3758]

it's because she wasnt acting dumb or degraded in that show. She's proud of it. Her character was very witty. Meanwhile u will never see ariana talk about hers. They made brain dead on disney.

[@jamaljames9331]

That’s because she was being natural with her acting in that show, unlike the other Disney stars that get too cartoonish and go over the top it affects their careers from being able to find more work sometimes. Selena was one of Disney Channels best actresses next to Zendaya

It would be nice to see a reboot or continuation of WOWP. Alex and Mason could be parents and train their kid to be a wizard or werewolf, and we could see how Justin is doing in Professor Crumbs place with Juliet. Max would be the Uncle Kelbo and just screw around all the time without magic since he lost the wizard competition.

[@sillywabbit898]

Yeah there’s no need for adding new characters, it killed the charm for reboots like that’s so raven, it would have to be a Icarly type of reboot where it still focuses on the same characters

I thought Selena was technically already an Emmy winner since Wizards won an Emmy back in the day. It was a Daytime Emmy but I'd still count it lol. Even though the Emmy was for the show, I remember reading somewhere that due to some rule, she's listed among the recipients as the lead of the show.

[@realtalk6195]

I looked it up and the win was for the production not the ensemble cast.

@@findakollie6873 what lies? They are facts. They been back together on the down low since late 2019. And didn't you notice how in December 2019 Abel tweeted hold my frog and then two months later Selena filmed her boyfriend video and she was holding a frog in the video and she copied the heartless video. You should have known they were back together right there. Also the whole cute boy calling her in August 2020. That cute boy was Abel. His vocal coach confirmed after the video was released from her cooking show. And Abel dropped selenas fave song Snowchild. Oh and also they were recently together April 28 in simis stories and may 20 when she got back in la and may 26 with Diddy in Malibu. June 9 at britneys wedding cuz Paris Hilton started following both Abel and Selena right after the wedding and abels house is 15 minutes away from britneys house in Sherman oaks. SO yeah she been lying to y'all about being single and her own mama outed her on being single. She ain't single. Lol
