Selena Gomez shows off her serious face on one of two covers of Elle magazine.
In the new issue, Selena opens up about her relation with Justin Bieber and making smart career choices.
On Justin Bieber renting out the Staples Center: "If I'll share anything with you, it's that he really is a hopeless romantic. I had just mentioned it in the car – all I said is that I really want to see Titanic again, and then…"
On growing up poor: "I can remember about seven times when our car got stuck on the highway because we'd run out of gas money." Still her mother, "saved up to take me to concerts. She took me to museums, aquariums, to teach me about the world, about what's real."
On Disney Channel: "Disney is a machine, so people automatically assume that you can't work for the channel unless you act and sing and dance and sign up for all that. That's absolutely not true. I always did everything the way I wanted to do it."
On career moves: "I get offered the teenybopper movies, and I've done that. I haven't done a mega-hundred-billion-dollar Transformers movie, but that's not what I want to do either."
