Selena Gomez will release new music this year. The "Wizards of Waverly Place" star, who is rumored to be dating teen idol Justin Bieber, confirmed the news via Twitter.

While music is a high priority for Selena Gomez, she also has a handful of new projects to keep her busy throughout the year. According to Disney Dreaming, the singer/actress is "excited" for her fans to see what she's been working on.

In addition to filming the final season of her hit Disney series and recording new music, Gomez's love life is heating up. Selena has been caught cuddling with teen heart throb, Justin Bieber. While most fans seemed okay with the new couple, others actually sent Gomez death threats.
