Justin Bieber is head over heels in love with Selena Gomez. The 17-year-old singing sensation gave his most candid interview to date about his budding relationship with the 19-year-old brunette bombshell, opening up to New! magazine about what makes her so great.
Justin reveals that he is "in love" with Selena!
"I wouldn't be with somebody if I wasn't in love," JB confessed to New! magazine, via MTV UK.
"Everybody can see she is hot and that's great, but there is so much more to her than that," he added. "She makes me laugh and she puts up with my practical jokes."
Justin also explained that having a similar family background to Selena helped build a strong foundation for their relationship.
"We were both raised by our moms in single-parent households, and that's given us a lot of the same family values in life."
