    Selena Gomez Reveals Childhood Crush on Ice Cube: “I Thought He’d Protect Me”

    Pop star opens up about her earliest celebrity infatuation — and names Eminem as her all-time favorite rapper

    Selena Gomez has revealed a surprising childhood crush — and it’s none other than West Coast rap legend Ice Cube.

    During a recent appearance on GOAT Talk with Karol G, the singer and actress shared a sweet (and unexpected) confession about her younger years:
    “Can I tell you my first one that I had a crush on? Ice Cube,” Gomez said with a laugh. “I had the biggest crush on him. I was, like, five. It’s so weird but I just thought he would protect me.” She added that the affection was purely childhood innocence: “I’m only saying it simply based on my childhood.”

    Gomez also revealed that Eminem holds the title of her favorite rapper of all time, crediting her DJ father for introducing her to Slim Shady’s music:
    “Every time it was an Eminem song, I would just get so excited,” she said.

    Selena isn’t the only star letting fans in on their early crushes. Offset recently confessed — via magician-assisted reveal — that his celebrity crush is Sabrina Carpenter, calling her “artistically, really put together.”

    Elsewhere, Chloe Bailey previously gushed about her longtime love for Kendrick Lamar, admitting on Instagram Live that she had a full “K. Dot phase” years ago:
    “I was convinced I was going to be with him,” she laughed.

    From Ice Cube to Sabrina Carpenter, these candid celebrity crush confessions are a reminder that even superstars grew up starstruck.

    Diddy once thought Selena Gomez was a valet woman, despite her having over 70 million followers on Instagram at the time and releasing numerous hits in her career.

    Selena Gomez revealed this during a 2016 interview with GQ. When asked what fame was like… she started the story saying, “Or when P. Diddy gave me his valet ticket once. Do you know what I mean?”

    Interviewer Zach Baron, responded, “Wait, no, I don’t—why did he give you his valet ticket?”

    Selena responded, “Because he thought I was the valet lady,”

    What?!” Zach Baron replied

    “Yeah!” Selena said, but she didn’t take offense to it, she thought it was hilarious telling interviewer Zach Baron,

    “Look, I see all of it. I don’t care — I actually laughed hysterically when it happened. But I get it,” she said. “I know what all of it is.”
