Soon the small fans will hear Selena Gomez’s voice in the upcoming animation “In Hotel Transylvania 3”. She speaks for Mavis, the daughter of Count Dracula. In the movie lonely Dracula meets a woman, which is interesting for him. Like her heroine Mavis, Selena had to deal with new partners of her parents in her real life, because they divorced, when the girl was just 5 years old.

Selena Gomez father Ricardo spent his young years in Dallas, TX. There he studied at a high school. He fell in love with his school-mate Amanda Dawn Cornett and they started dating. His girlfriend got pregnant, and Rick married her. Then Selena’s dad was just 17. Rick named his daughter after his favorite Latin singer Selena Quintanilla.

Their marriage was too immature to last forever. After 5 years of struggle for their family happiness, they filed for divorce.

According to Selena’s words, her father didn’t spend a lot of time with her during her early years. But from time to time they crossed the way, and Rick took his daughter to a café, where flirted with waitresses, using his cute daughter as a bait.

In 2012 Rick got married for the second time. His wife Sara Gomez and he welcomed their common daughter Tori. The fans have already named the girl “a small version of Selena Gomez”.
