Actress Ashley Benson has revealed that she felt very protective towards former Disney starlet Selena Gomez while they were filming the movie 'Spring Breakers' together. 

Benson told Complex magazine that while they were shooting the film, she felt as though she had to 'mother' the 'Come & Get It' beauty because of what some of the scenes involved: "The four of us were filming this motel party scene and we had to observe what was going on and be in character."

"My and Vanessa's (Hudgens) characters loved to party, so we couldn’t do anything to break that persona. But I remember looking over to the floor at these two girls rolling around and making out completely naked. At that moment, I literally closed Selena’s eyes. I felt like I had to mother her.”

On May 21, meanwhile, Gomez shared a photo update on her Instagram page and accompanied it with a caption to let her fans know that she's doing well: "Taking my power back.. can't wait to show you where I've been. I love y'all. Ps, I still obsess over pickles."
