Selena Gomez's New Album Inspired By Bestie Taylor Swift… And Skrillex!

Girl is getting all sorts of experimental!!

Raunchy movies featuring a three-way and now a pop meets dub-steppy electronica album?! No wonder Justin Bieber couldn't satisfy her thirst for the NEW and exciting!

Selena Gomez recently spilled all sorts of juicy deets about her forthcoming album…

And it apparently includes Taylor Swift-esque pop love ballads and Skrillex-type beatz!

The newly single lass revealed:

"Taylor inspires me — not even in music, just in everything that she does, she's such an incredible person.

Skrillex was a big inspiration because he did the score of 'Spring Breakers,' so being a part of that and meeting him and watching 'Spring Breakers' a thousand times through festivals and stuff, you kinda get hooked on it. So I was like, 'I should kind of add a little bit of that in there.' "

Oooo we are SUPER intrigued!

It only makes sense that Selena would draw from Swifty — they are bestiez for LIFE after all — and the Skrillex influence is no surprise, seeing as Love You Like A Love Song has slick, undulating beats beneath its catchy pop melody.

SO souped to hear the first single off of Selena's mysterious new album when it hits digital and physical shelves this March!

Great. Both Selena and Taylor have no vocal or writing talent, so they should both be used recording crappy autotuned songs with shitty 'dubstep'/pop beats. Both suck so it makes alot of sense that they aim for the same musical style.
Our generation is so lost when it comes to music. Why does people even LISTEN to this crappy shit???
