Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber fuelled speculation that they are an item after they were recently spotted together walking down Santa Monica Pier, reports Hollywood Life.
SELENA GOMEZ and JUSTIN BIEBER, who are rumoured to be in a relationship, strolled down Santa Monica Pier on a recent 'date'.The couple caused a stir as they were photographed walking hand-in-hand and stopping off at a 'Soda Jerks' store to buy ice cream. One eyewitness said the pair were behaving like a couple and that Bieber refused to let the actress pay for her ice-cream, saying, "Selena ordered a kid's chocolate ice cream in a sugar cone. She tried to pay with her credit card, but Justin took it out of her hand and gave his card instead! Justin didn't order anything. They were really quiet. Honestly, they seemed like very ordinary people". Despite being only 16-years-old, Bieber is now recognised as one of the biggest pop acts on the planet and his public appearances often result in the star being mobbed by his devoted fans. As news of the couple's appearance on the pier began to circulate, crowds started to form and photographers took snaps, a source said, "They were quite the spectacle. Everyone was whispering and snapping pics and videos with their phones".
Gomez is set to play the lead in the forthcoming romantic comedy movie 'Monte Carlo'. The film, scheduled for release on 1st July 2011, also stars Nicole Kidman and follows the story of three friends posing as wealthy socialites in Monaco.
