Selena Gomez hits the studio with Wiz Khalifa
Pop star Selena Gomez has sparked rumors of a secret collaboration with rapper Wiz Khalifa.
The Come & Get It singer only released her second solo album, Revival, in October (15), but she recently started work on new material - and it appears she's recruited Wiz to help her out.
The hip-hop star hinted at the duet in a post on social media app
Snapchat on Thursday (03Mar16), when he shared a brief video clip
of himself in a studio with Selena. The 23-year-old was shown
bobbing her head along to a tune, before greeting Wiz's followers
by blowing them a kiss.
Wiz didn't offer up an explanation for the recording session, but
it seems the pair may have been introduced by the rapper's See You
Again partner, Charlie Puth, as the singer/songwriter also worked
with Selena on his track We Don't Talk Anymore.
Charlie previously confessed he had reached out to Selena out of
the blue, while on tour in Japan, and she ended up finding the
perfect sound for her vocals by recording them in his hotel
closet.
"I produced it out in Japan, and I wanted to make a record that has
that international type feel to it," Charlie told People.com.
"Selena came on to it, and it completed it all."
"I'm good friends with her now, and we talked about wanting to
collaborate, and I was finishing the song, and I was like,
'Wouldn't it be cool if you sang the second verse?'" he continued.
"And that's really how it happened.
"She came over; she recorded it. I didn't even have a studio set
up; she recorded it in my closet, and it really added a lot to the
record."
The young stars have also been linked romantically, but both
Charlie and Selena have insisted they are not dating.
