wow thats quite a title. xD
Selena Gomez (along with Sean Kingston and Rosero McCoy) is a judge for the Make Your Mark competition. They actually filmed the show this past weekend and heres a picture Selena tweeted from the event of her and Sean Kingston.
Im sure youre wondering, how could they have already filmed the show before the voting? Well, its simple really. One of my friends was there at the filming and she tells me that they simply filmed a winning segment for each contestant. So when they have the results, they just have to make sure they play the right clip. xD
