The star of Disney's latest hit Wizards of Waverly Place, Selena Gomez, is staying a virgin until marriage, and she's not afraid to admit it.
The 15-year old actress caught up with Extra on the set of her Seventeen Magazine shoot, where she said that she plans to practice abstinence until she says 'I do,' even asking her dad to give her a promise ring as a reminder of her personal vow.
"I said, 'Dad, I want a promise ring.' He went to the church and got it blessed. He actually used me as an example for other kids," she says.
