Selena Gomez has got tongues wagging on Twitter after she posted a photo of herself sunbathing.

The revealing image shows off Gomez's figure as she catches some rays whilst taking a drink.

The singer and actress posted the image yesterday (March 5) and it quickly attracted interest.

As previously reported, Gomez moved to deny speculation recently that a new tattoo on her wrist was a small heart - and a possible ode to boyfriend Justin Bieber - by stating that it is in fact a musical note.

Bieber meanwhile has been busy celebrating his 18th birthday, receiving a flash new car from his manager on the Ellen DeGeneres TV show.
