‘I love Eminem. I’m a huge Eminem fan, so I’m very excited to see him,’ Gomez says. By Kara Warner Selena Gomez attends the 2011 Grammy Awards Photo: Getty Images For those clued in to the world of Selena Gomez, Disney Channel darling and star of “The Wizards of Waverly Place,” budding recording artist, and the current romantic interest of one Justin Bieber (or so we assume — they have yet to publicly acknowledge the fact that they’re dating, comments from co-stars and vacation photos aside), her attendance at tonight’s Grammy Awards ceremony might seem solely pegged to her Bieber connection and presenting the Best New Artist trophy. However, when MTV News caught up with Gomez on the red carpet, she revealed that she was most excited about a certain rapper from Detroit, not a teen sensation from Canada. Check out photos of Eminem’s Grammy performance and more! “I’m actually very excited about Dr. Dre and Eminem’ s performance ,” Gomez told MTV’s Sway during our live-stream broadcast. “I love Eminem. I’m a huge Eminem fan, so I’m very excited to see him.” Gomez added that her stepdad was equally excited for that performance (Dre’s first in about 10 years), in that he never wants to come with her to big events, but made an exception for Eminem tonight. When asked why she loves Eminem so, Gomez said it’s all about his swagger — or lack thereof. “For me, I think he’s so free within himself,” she explained. “Music is an awesome way to express yourself, but when you see him onstage and he comes to events like this, you never see him having to be all stiff and cool. He’s just in a hoodie, goes on and performs, and I love that.” Sway wondered aloud whether this means Gomez likes bad boys. “Sometimes, yeah,” she admitted with a smile. And what about an Eminem/Gomez musical collaboration? Would she be into that? “Oh gosh. Who would say no to that?” she said. “I don’t think I’m cool enough. I don’t have enough street cred for that.” For Grammy Awards winners list, analysis, interviews, fashion and more, stick with MTV News during the big show and beyond.
