There's some licking of lips, some dropping of the bass and some whistling. Just watch now and witness it all for yourself:

Selena Gomez Has A Fragrance!

Pop star, actress, clothing designer, Justin Bieber's girlfriend and now perfumer ? that's right, folks, Selena Gomez is only 19, but she's already a mini mogul. In Touch was there when the lovable star debuted her namesake first fragrance, Selena Gomez, in NYC ? a labor of love she dedicates to her fans, who actually participated in creating the scent! So what was it that made the teen starlet want to delve into the celeb fragrance world? "I've always wanted to ever since Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen had their little body sprays that I was obsessed with," explains Selena. "But my fans were really my inspiration behind it... I just had to wait for the right time because I wanted to create something that could really stand on its own."

The ever-sweet star gushed over the "yummy" bottom note, made up of "coconut, chocolate and vanilla," while the fragrance's first ad campaign ? which depicts Selena (and her gorgeous Maria Lucia Hohan gown) drenched in water while her sleek bottle capped with kisses sits alongside the frame ? reveals a sexier side. "It's very romantic, very sensual... but it's fun and beautiful at the same time," says Selena, adding, "I wanted it to look like I was swimming in the fragrance."

Selena Gomez, the fragrance, hits Macy's stores and macys.com this month!

With the Battle of the Boy Bands nearing the Final Four, things are getting pretty intense among fans who are furiously voting to keep their favorite groups in the race.

Along the way, we lost some of the early front-runners, including the Backstreet Boys, 'NSYNC, New Kids on the Block and Boyz II Men.

Just because the Boyz were knocked out in the second round of the competition doesn't mean they don't have their die-hard fans out there — among them "Glee" star Dianna Agron.

"When I was growing up, it was 'NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees," Agron told MTV News of the late-'90s boy-band explosion. "I was so obsessed with Boyz II Men in fourth grade. 'Motownphilly' — so good, so awesome."

The R&B group is a favorite of Monica's as well. "My favorite boy band would have to be New Edition and Boyz II Men," she told MTV News. "I don't know if you consider these boy bands though, but they were just unbelievable."

Another popular choice was 'NYSNC, who made a shocking first-round exit when they lost in the final moments of voting to British boy band 5ive. Justin Timberlake and company ruled the charts (and the hearts of teen girls everywhere) in the late '90s.

"I would say 'NSYNC was my favorite boy band. They're amazing, they were so talented," former Danity Kane singer Aubrey O'Day said. "Obviously Justin came from that. We all know we were sweating Justin!"

Posters of Timberlake most certainly lined the walls of millions of fans, including Selena Gomez, who revealed to MTV News that her first crush was the former 'NSYNC member.

Of course, picking just one boy band isn't always easy, which was the problem for Roc Nation's newest member, British singer Rita Ora.

"My ultimate boy band, I have a few: Jackson 5, Jagged Edge — I love Jagged Edge," Ora said. " 'NSYNC, they were the ones, I swear."

But when "Jersey Shore" star Vinny Guadagnino picked his ultimate boy band, he opted for keeping it in the MTV family.

"I kinda liked 2ge+her," Vinny admitted. "I loved ['U + Me = Us']."

Voting for the Elite Eight in MTV's Battle of the Boy Bands runs until noon ET on Wednesday, May 2. Winners are determined by fan votes, so if your favorite band made the cut, make sure you keep voting. Tune in to AMTV and MTV Hits for their boy-band video takeovers each day and make sure to spread the word on Twitter using the hashtag #BBB and like us on Facebook for updates!


Vote for your favorite band, discuss and share on Facebook and Twitter in the MTV Battle of the Boy Bands interactive bracket!

Need Expert Financial Advice? Read Our Tips! - Credit Deal


Posted on Apr 29, 2012 in Personal Finance | 0 comments

Stop charging a credit card that you have issues paying off. Avoid charging things to your credit card by finding another way to pay for your expenses. Pay off your credit card, and then pay it off in full each month if you start using it again.

Make it a habit to review your credit report often. You may obtain a copy of your credit report without cost. Check your credit report twice every year to check for any changes that you did not authorize. Also look to see if any identity theft has been committed against you.

Consider getting a savings account to put money aside every month. The savings money should only be used for emergencies, college costs or major expenses, like a down payment on a house. Even if it?s impossible to make a significant contribution each time, save as much as you can because every little bit helps.

From every check, take out savings first. If you try to save the money after the month has gone by, you will find that you do not have any money left. Once the money is put in a separate account, it reduces the temptation to spend, since you?ve compartmentalized it in a way that makes it psychologically ?less available.?

Get your finances back on track by creating and sticking to a budget. Regardless of your preferred method of accounting, creating and sticking to a budget can help you to identify your financial strengths and weaknesses. Once you know what you?re spending money on, you can decide whether you want to cut any of it out. This type of planning helps you reduce spending and refrain from spending money you can?t afford on luxuries.

It is important that you establish some structure to ensure the security of your financial future. With a goal in mind and a plan for reaching it, you have a yardstick to use in evaluating potential expenses and a source of motivation to work harder.

It can be very helpful to have an emergency savings account. Save for some goal that you want to achieve, such as paying off a debt or saving up enough money to go to college.

Flexible spending accounts can be used for a variety of expenses. If you have medical bills or daycare bills a flexible account can help save you money. These kind of accounts will let you set some pretax money aside for these expenses. There are conditions involved though, so speak to a tax professional.

Managing your money is extremely important. Protect anything you make, and invest any capital you have to spare. Letting profits build up in anticipation of later, larger expenditures is alright, but you must keep in mind that liquid assets cost you in terms of investment opportunities passed up. Make sure you have a barrier set to determine what you shall call profit and what will be capital.

Talking to a good friend or family member that has worked in the financial services industry can be a good source of free information on how to better manage your finances. If there aren?t any family members that have finance experience, close friends are also a good choice to turn to.

Do not dwell on your financial mistakes; learn from them instead. Spending years recovering from credit card debt can be a learning experience to discourage further credit card use. If you have been making less that what you deserve, use that as an incentive to try and get more money from your next job. When dealing with your money situation, learn as much as you can. By learning from your mistakes, your financial status will improve to a better place than before.

It?s important for everyone to have money in a savings that is available at all times. Although interest rates are relatively low on straight savings accounts, it is still important to search around for the highest interest rate on a savings account that you can find. Some of the banks are online, and they are all FDIC insured.

Some forms of debt are infinitely better than others. Real estate investments are examples of good debts. Interest on real estate loans for residential or commercial properties are tax deductible and usually the property will increase in value over time. College debt is also generally considered to be ?good? debt. Student loans generally have lower interest rates are are not repaid back until students have completed their schooling.
