Selena Gomez may be happily with producer Benny Blanco, but she had her eyes on another man growing up.
The singer sat down with W Magazine for their Best Performance Issue. During the interview, Gomez shared who her very first celebrity crush was.
“When I was younger, I probably had too many crushes,” Gomez began.
However, she went on to reveal that her first official celebrity crush was Jesse McCartney.
“When ‘Beautiful Soul’ came out — that was just life-changing for me,” she said before transitioning into another one of her crushes.
“I loved Chad Michael Murray from One Tree Hill. I also just had crushes more in real life than on actors or musicians,” Gomez revealed.
Growing up, the actress shared that her very first kiss was on a television show.
“I was 11 or 12 years old, and I guest-starred on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, which starred Dylan and Cole Sprouse. It was with Dylan, and it was really funny because both of us were so young. We were figuring out how to kiss. I had never done it, and I was so scared,” she revealed.
