AceShowbiz - Selena Gomez is celebrating her birthday on a Roman holiday. The actress/singer, who turned 27 on Monday, July 22, flew to the Italian city to mark the milestone after serving as the maid of honor at her cousin Priscilla DeLeon's wedding over the weekend.
On Monday, the "Wolves" songstress was spotted strolling the streets of Rome with her friends, including producer Andrea Iervolino. She dressed in an olive maxi dress and wore black espadrille sandals, as she carried a white round sling bag. The former Disney starlet got herself ready to beat heat by carrying an ice-cold water bottle.

The table shared several dishes such as raw fish, tagliatelle with lobster, pasta with vodka sauce and various salads."
