Has Selena Gomez, 22, totally retired from the fame game? It’s starting to seem like the triple threat is way more interested in Justin Bieber, 20, than her career. Now, a source explains EXCLUSIVELY to HollywoodLife.com exactly why the talented star is taking so much time off.

Selena Gomez: Her Family Wants Her To Get Back To Work

It turns out Selena’s family is urging her to work again, too, but not for the reasons you might think!
“Selena’s family would love to see her get back to work because it would give her something besides Justin to focus on and they know that being creative makes her happy. But at the same time they don’t want to force her to do anything she doesn’t want to do, she’s been working full time since she was a kid so it’s totally her right to take some time off,” our source tells us.
It’s true, Selena has been a working actress since she was 10 years old. She starred on Barney & Friends back then, so we can understand why she might need some time off. But we’d still love to see her performing again soon!
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Should Selena keep taking time off? Or would it be healthier for her to start working again? Let us know!
