Selena Gomez teases new album: 'It's about my perspective - it's me discovering life'

'Good For You' beauty Selena Gomez recently announced that her new album, entitled 'Revival', will be released on October 9 and she has now opened up about the themes it deals with.

Speaking to MTV recently, the star admitted that her new record is very personal and tells a story to the listener, rather than being an album full of less meaningful hit singles:

"The album in general is my perspective on things — it’s not about one thing. I’m going to be 23, I’ve seen how the world works in a weird way. That moment in your life when you step back and you’re like, ’What’s going on? Am I happy? Are these people good for me? Why are these people doing that to other people?’ Just discovering what life is, spirituality, so there’s a little bit of all of that on the album."

Gomez went onto add that she challenged herself with this record and genuinely can't wait for her fans to hear it: "I love buying an album and having a story told to me. Taylor [Swift] is awesome at that — and I think when you’re able to buy an album and follow a story, that’s genuine. To me, that’s more challenging than releasing a bunch of hits. That’s what I wanted to do with this record.”
