Even when put on the spot, Selena Gomez delivers. She was recently on the Toronto television show New.Music.Live and was asked to rap a bit of Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass.” She agreed, but wouldn’t do it without the help of the crowd.
She’s not too bad, if she decided to branch out of acting and singing, she could definitely put out a rap record. What do you think?

She was kind of flat sounding haha but I’m jealous she can actually do that! I’ve tried to sing along to that song so many times and I just fail completely.
guest
Haha, she’s so cute.

It’s cool that she did that and I even respect her for editing out the “curse words” for the younger girls that look up to her, but it’s not a hard song to sing lol. She even slowed it down. Now if she went crazy like Nicki, then I’d be super impressed

I’m pretty impressed. Well done – & I love the self-editing. A Disney star through & through.

She actually looked like she had some street cred. Okay, girl!

Uh… Yeah.. It’s one thing to be able to rap something that already exists but… I don’t think she’d do well with a hip hop record.

I’ve tried so many times to rap this perfectly, and it never seems to work, so props to her! I wish she put a little more emotion into it though :T

haha wow i never realized how deep her voice is…

She actually sounds pretty good doing this, and I love that she looks like she’s just having fun, not trying to be the sh*t. It’s admirable that she understood younger girls were around, and censored the lyrics, as well. I love her, and she’s growing up to be quite wonderful. Fingers crossed she doesn’t fall down that Disney star rebel well!

That was cool. I’m impressed she could sing it all to the beat. I can’t rap for shit, lol. It’s so hard to keep going and not breathe in b/w the words xD

She was waaaaay too monotone, but they did put her on the spot.
And I really appreciate that as a star with a lot of very young fans she didn’t say any of the curse words =p
guest
I like how everyone says she edited herself for the younger fans yet the song is filled with things not appropriate for younger girls that she didn’t edit out. Reference to drinking alcohol, selling drugs, violence, and degrading name calling to other females. Just because she didn’t say the four letter words doesn’t make it appropriate. I’m not conservative but she should have picked a less colorful rap for the public appearance with minors involved. :/
Either way she’s a beautiful girl and seems fun… but certainly no career in hiphop in her future. lol
guest
She’s really monotonous and is more or less talking instead of rapping… so I don’t know why you’re saying she could get into rapping, hahaha. But I do admire that she edits out certain words!
guest
@KickDrumHeart@datingish - lmao. right! everyone thinks that whenever they can rap her stuff. i loved that post.
guest
i love everything about this girl haha <3
