She’s performing two special dates in London over the weekend as she continues to promote her new album, but her raunchy outfit demanded as much attention as he music when she took to the stage at the revamped Hammersmith Apollo on Saturday night.

Indeed, Selena Gomez wowed fans at the venue when she opened her set in a pair of tight leather hotpants to perform tracks from current long-player Stars Dance.

The 21-year-old singer and actress teamed her skimpy bottoms with breezy white top and sheer tights, while the chunky gold chains around her neck gave the overall look a distinctly urban flourish.

Selena completed the look with a pair of mid-length black boots as she worked her way through the opening songs of a lively set that included hit single Come & Get It, Slow Down and Love Will Remember.

The young star recently jetted into the UK from Paris as she continues her Stars Dance world tour, making her announcement public with tweet to her 17,000,000 Twitter followers on Saturday.

‘Hi London,’ she wrote, just hours before taking to the stage for the first of two sold-out shows in London.

Away from music Selena has been promoting new film Getaway, in which she stars alongside Hollywood stars Ethan Hawke and Jon Voight.

Despite her best efforts the thriller has failed to make an impact at the box-office, with critics lining up to give it a mauling following its US release on August 30.

Speaking to the New York Daily News, Selena – whose last long-term relationship was with Justin Bieber – admits she finds it hard to ignore the constant rumours and speculation surrounding her private life.

‘It does get to me,’ she said. ‘I'm a human and I feel those emotions of when people talk about you. It's never a good feeling ‘cause half the time it's just bull, it's not real.’

‘In the real world I'll drive my car to the grocery store and buy myself some food. In the media world it's like, 'Oohhh, I drive my car to go somewhere secretive.' It gets too clouded so I just have good people around me. I'm very picky,’ she admitted.

‘The hardest part (is) just trying to find someone that will just love the core person and not anything else around it.’

Her outfi is acceptable and not "raunchy" at all. Raunchy is when your derrière is hangin out of the shorts you are wearing, DM. Raunchy is te way Miley Cyrus dresses.

Selena is beautiful, but she doesn't have the voice to pull off a song nor the body to do justice to that outfit.

The press is always trying to make her out as so outrageous, when in reality she is just growing up and wearing very appropriate "stage" attire. She is a young woman who (so far) I thoroughly enjoy from her series, Witches of Waverly Place to her music. Isn't it difficult enough for these young people to make the transition from child to adult performer without constantly making negative articles about them. Look up what Madonna look like in 1980 better yet look at Lady Gaga 2008. Leave the girl alone, so far, she is tame.

Well, she's not grabbing her crotch which in itself is refreshing given our present "talent" pool.
