Per videos reposted to a Gomez fan account on Twitter, the pop star, 25, spent her Sunday hanging with pals on a boat cruise around New York City. In one clip, a phone camera pans around the deck of the yacht, which passes the Statue of Liberty while Gomez — in a blue and white bikini — sets a book down on an end table. In a second clip, Gomez cheers on a group of male friends, encouraging them to go for a dip in the Hudson River. Sunday afternoon, Gomez’s assistant, Theresa Mingus, posted a photo with the former Disney on the yacht, in which Gomez sports a big smile; later, Gomez fans took to Twitter, where the hashtag #SelenaIsFreeParty began trending. Gomez’s laid back N.Y.C. outing comes just hours after ex-boyfriend Bieber, 24, proposed to girlfriend Baldwin, 21. As TMZ reported, the “What Do You Mean” singer popped the question to the young model Saturday night during a dinner in the Bahamas.
