Selena Gomez Wants to Learn Spanish

Selena added,

I practice [Spanish], but I can understand it better than I can speak it. So in a lot of my interviews that I did recently, they would speak to me in Spanish and I would answer back in English. They were like, 'You pick it up so easily,' but I don't want to say it in Spanish because I'd be embarrassed if I messed something up.

The teen superstar doesn't think she has to speak the language fluently to be considered a 'real' Latina now, but originally she did. Selena says, "At first I did, but I started to see all these people that accepted me regardless of the fact that I didn't speak it."

Already understanding the language should really help her to learn to speak it a lot faster. Selena is a great role model, showing that you should always continue to educate yourself. It would be impressive to see her accept a Latin award speaking Spanish.

What do you think?
