Selena Gomez, Hana Hwang Reveal Special Bond with Who Says


LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Selena Gomez and Hana Hwang have shared a special bond since Ryan Seacrest made the introduction last December. Today, Selena Gomez revealed to fans and news the special bond she has with Hana Hwang started with Who Says. Hana, a 13-year-old progeria patient, was introduced to Gomez on the suggestion of her tutor Sara Kim. Moments ago, Selena detailed the impact that introduction has had on her own life.

The Selena Gomez, Hana Hwang bond is unlike anything recently detailed by news. Hana asked for just one lifetime dream in December to see Selena. Hana spends her days reading. She also, however, keeps Who Says on her iPod shuffle in regular rotation.

Today, Selena told news what Hana has meant to her life since that December meeting. “This is my #iwontgiveup photo” said Selena. She linked to the above Instagram image. Selena additionally told news and fans “Hana is so beautiful and one of the most incredible people I’ve met. Love you.” On Instagram Selena also added the hashtag #iwontgiveup and said of Hana “Love you sweetheart”.

The Instagram image shows Hana holding a friendship bracelet up in the air. Then, in two lower pictures, Selena poses wearing what appears to be the same friendship bracelet. Today’s message about Hana was one of only three current tweets by Selena.

That same commitment was detailed extensively by Seacrest in December. “I want to tell you something this is incredible … that has to do with Selena Gomez.” Ryan added “… for KISSMAS Giving, we had Sara nominate someone she knows. She nominated … Hana for KISSMAS Giving.” The Sara that Ryan is referring to is Hana’s tutor,  Sara Kim.

Ryan Seacrest told news what Sara detailed to him. “We learned that Hana has a very rare aging disorder. Hana is one of only ten children in the U.S. that has progeria, a fatally rare genetic disease that dramatically speeds up aging in children.” Ryan added to news “children with progeria age eight to ten times faster than normal children. Their average life expectancy is thirteen years old. And the absolute worse part of the disease is that there is no cure.”

Then Ryan told listeners and news “Hana just turned thirteen years old this September 8, and every day has been a race against time.”

Ryan told listeners that the radio station has helped out Hana. But as the station and Hana’s family began talking, “we learned that Hana is a huge Selena Gomez fan.”

Sara told Seacrest listeners that Selena Gomez’s song “Who Says” is the only song she listens to during difficult times, including treatment. Hana finds inspiration in the lyrics, Sara said, singing that song to herself all the time. “It motivates her and to hang in there”.

Then Ryan Seacrest told listeners that Selena Gomez is unlike any celebrity out there today. “Selena is one of the most generous people I have met in my life. She was recording her album here in town.” Selena was recording here in Los Angeles when Ryan reached on the phone. Selena was suppose to finish her recording session and fly out of Los Angeles for a concert.

Seacrest continued, “I told Selena this story. She stopped recording her song in the studio. She stopped to visit Hana in the hospital.” From there, the bond was created. Below is Seacrest’s original broadcast and a video from Hana retweeted by her hospital again today. The YouTube shows Hana holding the bracelet depicted above.

Hana Hwang, Selena Gomez Visit Prompts Thank You from Children's Hospital


LOS ANGELES (LALTE) – Hana Hwang was visited by Selena Gomez at Los Angeles Children’s Hospital in December following assistance by Ryan Seacrest. This weekend, Los Angeles Children’s Hospital issued a thank you, again, to Selena Gomez and her fans for their reaction to a recent video by Hana Hwang in January.

In a news statement last Friday, Los Angeles Children’s Hospital thanked Selena Gomez and her fans for their reaction to Hana’s recent video. “We have been getting a lot of response from Hana’s video to @selenagomez” said the Children’s Hospital. “Thank you all for sharing this amazing story”.

The video, a narrative by Hana, uploaded on January 12 has been seen by nearly ninety-thousand viewers. Hana’s family in the video caption issued a thank you to the hit singer, and also her mother. “To Selena’s mother, Mandy, thank you for raising such a remarkable daughter.” As to Selena, the Hana family told news “Selena, not matter what you go through in your life, if you have love and family, you’re already a superstar. Never forget that you have made a difference to us and to the world.”

Hana recorded her video narrative for YouTube in January following a December visit by Selena Gomez. Hana, a 13-year-old progeria patient, “wanted to share the following message of appreciation with the pop star and her family”.  “Thank you for showing us your hearts” said the family.

Last winter, Sara Kim, Hana’s tutor, first nominated Hana for the KISSMAS Giving campaign on L.A.’s 102.7. But Ryan Seacrest personally reached out to help Hana, by contacting Selena Gomez directly and tell her about Hana’s story. Within days, Selena visited Hana bedside in Los Angeles last December, to “fulfill Hana’s lifelong dream”. For more about Hana’s story, click HERE.

Selena Gomez Punched


LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Was Selena Gomez punched by an angry Justin Bieber fan? No says Gomez’s rep. Selena Gomez punching reports surfaced online Wednesday, on Twitter, prompting the Disney star’s reps to denounce the reports as false. But Gomez’s rep would not explain why she was photographed so distraught during the time in question.

In a news statement released Wednesday, Selena Gomez’s rep tells PEOPLE there is “absolutely no truth” to reports that she was punched or struck by a jealous Justin Bieber fan.

But the Gomez rep would not explain while Selena appeared bother while emerging from the dinner at issue, a visit to Maggiano’s restaurant in LA for Bieber’s 17th birthday. Selena’s head was in her hands and her hair was shown tossed in front of her face.

Ironically, in another picture from the same night, Gomez looks perfectly fine. The report came less than three days after the long-believed couple made it official, appearing hand in hand on Sunday for the post-Oscar bash for Vanity Fair Magazine.

Selena Gomez Pregnant Reports are False

Selena Gomez Pregnant Reports are False

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Selena Gomez is not pregnant with Justin Bieber’s child. Selena Gomez pregnant reports hit online Sunday, a day usually reserved for fake celebrity deaths to spiral out of control. But in 2011, with celebrity fans more skeptical of fake celebrity car crash reports, a new breed of false reporting has kicked off – teen pregnancies.

Selena Gomez is certainly not the first celebrity to be the subject of false pregnant reports. By all accounts, 2009 was the year of fake baby bump stories that dominated celebrity newspapers. If you were are female star in public wearing a form-fitting dress, you were the target of celebrity newspapers. If you had an extra cheeseburger that day before meeting photographers, you suddenly were reported to have, not just a bump, but a baby bump. “I’m out of shape” was usually the embarrassing remark that celebrities were forced to give news to dispute their inaccurate reports.

But this time around, the focus is not on Selena Gomez’s body, it’s just on fabricating a story.

Selena Gomez is no more pregnant than singer Monica. Monica this weekend confirmed her marriage to Lakers’ star Shannon Brown. But just weeks ago, Monica too was the subject of fake pregnancy reports. Unlike 2009’s reports, Monica’s reports weren’t predicated upon a bump. They were just simply made up. Monica’s response was that she had “happy weight” during a telecast which prompted even her publicist to call her for confirmation.

Monica told fans then “My cousin just texted and asked ‘why are u the last to know’….. I am absolutely not pregnant. God’s Grace, Great kids, Great Family and Super good love sometimes = what we in the country call happy weight. LOL. No worries. … I have gotten tons of calls. Not because u said it. But my publicist said people are asking her. I didn’t look that different to me. LOL…. Oh, well.”
