" With the final season of Wizards of Waverly Place recently announced, Selena Gomez has begun to focus on her film career \u2014 starting with this summer&amp;#039;s feel good flick Ramona and Beezus. Based off of Beverly Cleary&amp;#039;s classic book series, this film chronicles the adventures of well-meaning third grade troublemaker, Ramona, and her goody-two-shoes big sister, Beezus. Just last week, Teen was invited to a sneak preview of the hilarious and heartwarming film \u2014 and even had the chance to sit down with Selena and the rest of the Quimby fam! John Corbett (of Sex and the City fame) plays dad Robert, Bridget Moynahan stars as mother Dorothy and of course, newcomer Joey King rounds off the clan as the always adorable Ramona. Selena looked absolutely gorgeous (killer lavender heels!) as she discussed her first feature film role! (She&amp;#039;s only done made-for-TV movies before this!) &amp;quot;It was so exciting because this was Joey&amp;#039;s first lead, so we got to experience that together. I think that&amp;#039;s what makes it special and different. And it doesn&amp;#039;t have Disney Channel on it!&amp;quot; It was obvious that Joey and Selena had become super close during their time taping together. (They even held hands under the table during the press conference \u2014 aww!) And Selena couldn&amp;#039;t stop gushing about her pint-sized co-star, &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m an only child. . .Joey is my sister now.&amp;quot; When asked what her favorite scene was to film, these superstar &amp;quot;sisters&amp;quot; immediately came up with the same answer: the bedroom scene! &amp;quot;Beezus asks Ramona to come and sleep with her and it&amp;#039;s when they actually connect. All of the pestering and picking on each other stops \u2014 it was really sweet.&amp;quot; She also admits that she was more of a Ramona than a Beezus when she was growing up, though she didn&amp;#039;t get into quite as much trouble as her on-screen lil&amp;#039; sis. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m pretty boring, let&amp;#039;s just be honest!&amp;quot; she laughed. Hardly! This triple threat continues to impress us with her acting chops, her singing skills (she belts out the movie&amp;#039;s theme song &amp;quot;Live Like There&amp;#039;s No Tomorrow&amp;quot;), and her rockin&amp;#039; dance moves (Another Cinderella Story, anyone?). And then, of course, there are all those pesky rumors about Selena&amp;#039;s dating life! Just like her character Beezus, Selena admits to often getting tongue-tied around boys. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d rather be a dork than try to force cool feelings that aren&amp;#039;t there \u2014 because I&amp;#039;m not! Everything I say to boys isn&amp;#039;t cool!&amp;quot; She also admitted to going to Bridget and Joey for boy advice on-set. Hmm. . .wonder who you were asking about, Selena? Be sure to check out Ramona and Beezus in theaters on July 23 and tell us which scene is your favorite! Do you love Selena Gomez as much as we do? Sound off below in comments!
