Hollywood star-singer Selena Gomez, who began her career as a child actress, has said that her pet peeves are people who are late.
Gomez, who recently announced her engagement to record producer Benny Blanco, told W Magazine: &ldquo;My pet peeves are people who are late.&rdquo;
She also dislikes being given preferential treatment just because she's famous, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She said: &ldquo;I don't like how people treat other people if they treat me differently. I notice those things very quickly. Because I have lovely people in my life that have nothing to do with the industry, and I really pay attention to how people treat my friends and people around me.&rdquo;
Gomez recently was seen alongside Karla Sof&iacute;a Gascon and Zoe Saldana in 'Emilia Perez'. She revealed that she relished the challenge of performing in Spanish in the crime-comedy film.
She shared: &ldquo;I was extremely proud to speak Spanish. I was nervous, but I have released a whole album in Spanish before. I&rsquo;m more comfortable singing in Spanish, so doing an entire film was a little intimidating.&rdquo;
Meanwhile,Gomez recently said that she's &ldquo;never wanted to be the centre of attention&rdquo;.
The actress loves the experience of working with &ldquo;collaborative&rdquo; filmmakers, like Jacques Audiard, who directed &ldquo;Emilia Perez&rdquo;.&nbsp;
She told Variety: &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve never wanted to be the centre of attention, so I love working with filmmakers that make it feel collaborative. Jacques was like a little kid. He would get so excited when we&rsquo;d do something right, and he would let us know - even though I couldn&rsquo;t understand him half the time. I was appreciative.&rdquo;
The &ldquo;Wolves&rdquo; hitmaker is also keen to test herself as an actress. The 32-year-old star said: &ldquo;I have been acting and singing my whole life, but this is all a new experience for me. I&rsquo;m really proud of the choices I&rsquo;ve made, because I go for the parts that scare me a little. That&rsquo;s the rush I crave.&rdquo;
