‘Selena Gomez is incredible’, says J Zedd
DJ Zedd finds pop star rumoured girlfriend Selena Gomez is a fabulous artist to work with. The Clarity hitmaker, who has reportedly been dating the 22-year-old star for a few months now, said she is also a joy to work with, reported a website. Referring to their collaboration on the song I Want You To Know, he said, “(She is) incredible at taking directions, because I actually was in the studio with her. Singers don’t always take direction well, because sometimes they feel like you get in their zone and I don’t have to be there. “She was great, you know, trying to emulate exactly what I wanted to hear and didn’t take anything personally. When I would say, ‘Try this instead of that’, or ‘Give me more vibrato on this one, and a straight note on this one’, she was exactly precise like I asked her to be.” (PTI)

Naomi Watts is a ‘frustrated dancer’
Actress Naomi Watts says she took advantage of her dance scenes in comedy-drama film While We’re Young to show off her moves.The 46-year-old admits she indulged her inner dancer in While We’re Young, in which she played a middle-aged wife wanting to revisit her younger days.“I have a bit of a frustrated dancer in me. I’ve always loved dance,” Watts said.“Dance was one of the things that led me to acting even though I say I fell in love with acting fairly early on… Around 16 and 17, I got heavily into dance but I think I just came into it too late and I was never going to be really great at it, so I let it go and the dance led to more acting classes,” she added.Watts gets to show off her skills when her character Cornelia, who is married to Ben Stiller’s Josh, joins a hip-hop class.Directed by Noah Baumbach, “While We’re Young” released in US on March 27, and it will release in India on May 1.
