Selena Gomez is the best!
u should’nt vote 4 someone cuz you pity them and feel bad for them. Selena deserves the award. She has been working hard. Princess Protectiont Program waz a really good movie. And i think Carter (selena) waz a very interesting character and hard to act out. Selena really deserves to win!!! she is the best!!! vote 4 selena!!!
I agree with Olivia, you shouldn’t vote for someone just because you pity them. Anyway I think if Demi had deserved the awards she would have won them but thats just my opinion.
GO SELENA!!!!
