Selena Gomez is crushing on someone twice her age!
The 21-year-old told Jimmy Kimmel that when it comes to her celebrity crush, it’s not her on-again off-again beau Justin Bieber, but someone of the more mature variety – her “Rudderless” co-star Billy Crudup!

“I had a crush on him,” she said of the 46-year-old actor. “I went through my whole ‘Almost Famous’ phase, so I was like Penny Lane for a good month. I wore the outfits and had the hair and the glasses…and then, I found out I was going to be a part of the movie [with Billy] and it took me a minute at first, because I kind of had a little bit of a crush on him!”
So did Selena ever reveal her crush to her co-star?
“No, gosh, no,” she said. “Well, evidently I’m telling him now… I don’t have to do press with him anymore, so it’s fine.”
And it doesn’t appear that getting to know the actor in any killed her crush.
“He’s a great guy. He’s completely awesome. We had the best time,” she said of working with Billy.
“Rudderless,” directed by William H. Macy, debuts in theaters Friday.
