Selena Gomez didn't want to hide her relationship with The Weeknd.

The 24-year-old singer was first linked to the Starboy singer in January and admitted she was happy to go public with their romance because she is so happy with him.

Speaking on the radio show On Air With Ryan Seacrest Friday, she told the host, 'Because I've been doing this for so long, I don't feel like there's anything that I would want to … not necessarily hide, but I'm genuinely myself.'

Can't hide her feelings: Selena Gomez talked about why she couldn't hide her love for new boyfriend The Weeknd in a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest on his morning show On Air With Ryan Seacrest. Above the star is seen in Studio City Sunday

She continued, 'I think it's really hard when I would want to spend so much time hiding things. It's too much pressure, and I think everyone gets over everything eventually.

'I just want to be happy. If that's me just being myself, then I don't really care.'

Speaking about the difference between her feelings now and when she wrote the break-up song 'Bad Liar', she explained 'I was just in a very much in a different place.'

Not too much of a Bad Liar: Though Selena's new music is much moodier, she explained she was 'just telling a story' and is very happy with her current relationship

Do you, boo boo: The 24-year-old star told the radio host she 'just want[s] to be happy' adding 'If that's me just being myself, then I don't really care.' Above the star is seen with her boyfriend The Weeknd at this year's Met Ball

Adding, 'I think it was more of just telling a story. [Now my music is] very moody. It's just comfortable for me. It feels good.'

Selena also spoke about the controversy surrounding her show 13 Reasons Why, which depicts teen suicide.

Selena - who is an executive producer on the Netflix show - said, 'The subject matter is a very complicated story to tell. It had this thriller, very dark, very weird kind of tone to it.'

'I think applying that and bringing it to a visual place is scary for people.'

Taking things in stride: Selena told Ryan she's not in a rush to release new music, saying she 'needed a second to breathe' after returning to the spotlight following her break from the camera and stint in rehab last year

Talking about Why: The Can't Keep My Hands To Myself singer also spoke about her series 13 Reasons Why, which earned controversy because of its plot surrounding teen suicide

Selena took time out from the spotlight last year and admitted herself to rehab to receive treatment for 'anxiety, panic attacks and depression' and she revealed she is in no rush to release a new album as she is just getting used to fame again.

She said, 'I've been doing this for so long and I needed a second to breathe. When I did that, I came back and I had it for a while, and I think it's safe to say I feel like I have a whole album put together at this point.

'But, I wanted to make sure everything was done at my pace. I didn't want to rush anything. I wanted to make sure my life was balanced and happy and healthy first.'

'It's a scary place for people': The star acknowledged how the series touches on difficult matters, telling Seacrest 'bringing' mental health issues 'to a visual place is scary for people.' Above the beauty glows at the premiere of the Netflix series
