Selena Gomez is the Un-Miley, the Reformed Rihanna, a former ratón House girl who has rocketed up the pop charts all while maintaining a stable relationship with her pants. As a singer, an actress ("Spring Breakers," yo!), a multimedia multihyphenate, she's a clothed, well-behaved success.
In other words: a rare breed.
But as her Wednesday mostrar at the Tampa bahía Times foros proved, Selena, for all her likable charms, has neither the rock-star charisma nor the crowd numbers of Miley o Rihanna.
She had no use for profanity o tongue-wagging during her 80-minute set; her sparkly outfits were no racier than Wonder Woman's.
But sadly, these days it pays to ride a wrecking ball in the buff.
The venue was pretty much halved, the stage pushed up to somewhere around center ice, as a smallish crowd of 6,988 calmly rah-rah'd Justin Bieber's 21-year-old ex.
She focused on synthetic new album Stars Dance, kicking her old Disney-era tunes to the curb and shoehorning in a cover of Katy Perry's Roar, a desperate ploy to piggbyback the hottest song on the radio.
The kids liked her just fine, and with good reason. She's a naturally sexy dancer, and the wattage of her smile could light nations.
Plus a few of her hits — feel-good Who Says, the stuttering fun of amor tu Like a amor Song — are catchy gems. Her main stage was flashy enough, plus an S-shaped segundo stage snaked out into the crowd, allowing her to high-five lots of fans, which she did más than a dude running for mayor.
But do the kids amor her? Not so sure about that.
At one point, Gomez borrowed her best pal Taylor Swift's "Wonder Gaze" look, that wide-eyed, is-this-really-happening gawk into the crowd. But whereas the masses go bonkers for Tay-Tay, they politely cheered Gomez, someone they've known since she first appeared on the disney Channel's Wizards of Waverly Place.
Backed por eight dancers and a six-piece band — including two singers who deserve a raise — Gomez had all manner of help with her vocals.
Her microphone was definitely on, though, allowing her to deliver such aw-shucks lines as "I've only known how to be who I am" and "God made each and every one of us to be exactly who we are." Then she blew through yet another song, perhaps the generic pound of Write Your Name o B.E.A.T.
The requisite confetti and streamers were ignited for the encores: the ubiquitous but still delightful Come & Get It and blah new club banger Slow Down. Selena waved and smiled and slapped hands and did her flirty shadow-boxing dance moves, a class act until the end.
As a role model, she was a dream. As a musician, she was average. Here's hoping, for the sake of the planet, she keeps getting better at both.
Selena Gomez may end up paying más than a million bucks as part of a settlement with a perfume company that sued her for bailing on an endorsement ... we have learned.
Adrenalina, Inc. sued Selena, claiming it poured $2 mil into R & D for a perfume line she was supposed to front. The company claimed Selena bailed and violated the deal. Selena counter-sued, claiming she backed out because the company was going broke and couldn't afford to produce the product.
We just obtained settlement docs which mostrar the case has been dismissed. But sources familiar with the situation tell us ... Selena will cough up a six-figure sum to end the lawsuit.
We're also told there's another component to the settlement, which could bump the cost up to the 7 figures.
Neither side would comentario on the settlement.

How tu choose to express yourself
It's all your own and I can tell
It comes naturally, it comes naturally
tu follow what tu feel inside
It's intuitive, tu don't have to try
It comes naturally, mmmm, it comes naturally
And it takes my breath away
(away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away)
[Chorus:]
tu are the thunder and I am the lightening
And I amor the way tu know who tu are
And to me it's exciting
When tu know it's meant to be
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
When you're with me, baby
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Ba-ba-baby
tu have a way of moving me
A force of nature, your energy
It comes naturally (you know it does)
It comes naturally
Mmmm, yeah
And it takes my breath away (away, away, away)
What tu do, so naturally (turally, turally, turally)
[Chorus]
When we collide sparks fly
When tu look in my eyes
It takes my breath away
[Chorus]
Everything, baby, comes naturally
It's all your own and I can tell
It comes naturally, it comes naturally
tu follow what tu feel inside
It's intuitive, tu don't have to try
It comes naturally, mmmm, it comes naturally
And it takes my breath away
(away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away)
[Chorus:]
tu are the thunder and I am the lightening
And I amor the way tu know who tu are
And to me it's exciting
When tu know it's meant to be

Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Ba-ba-baby
