Is Selena Gomez taking a cue from BFF Taylor Swift and getting her revenge on via song? It certainly seemed that way when she took the stage on Saturday, Jan. 19, for a private concert benefiting UNICEF.
Gomez, who split from on-again/off-again boyfriend Justin Bieber reportedly for good just before New Year's, put on quite a show for the crowd at New York City's Best Buy Theater. And while she didn't mention her ex by name, she did appear to make several cryptic references to their breakup.
"I've been through a lot the past few months," she told the audience. "It's been weird and sad and cool."
