"I find cooking very therapeutic," Selena Gomez told USA Today in a recent interview. "I have zero time to ever do it, but once I have a house of my own, one day, I'll have time to do that." The Disney star went on revealing, "I'd love to go to culinary school."

On the same occasion, she also addressed on her and celeb friend Taylor Lautner becoming the subjects of dating rumors. "I'm single," insisted the singer-actress. "I've never dated him. He's a really nice guy. He's become one of my really good friends, and he's made me the happiest I've ever been."

And when it comes to her best friend Demi Lovato, Selena opened up, "A lot of girls look up to Demi and my friendship because we've known each other since we were 7. And I think it's wonderful." She then continued recalling the day they first met while queuing for a "Barney & Friends" audition in Texas. "She turned around and asked me to color with her, and that's where everything began," she revealed.

Selena, furthermore, related that matter with her befriending any other people. "I've been through a lot and I've cut those people out of my life," she explained when referring to those who treated her badly. "I've been very mistreated. I'm just really careful who I surround myself with."
