Selena Gomez visited "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Thursday, August 27 night to talk about two projects that are ahead of her. Her TV movie, "Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie" was premiering on Disney Channel on the same night and her music video for "Falling Down" was coming right after the movie.

After interviewing Shaquille O'Neal, Jimmy Kimmel welcomed Selena to the couch, introducing her as the girl who "owes it all to a dinosaur named Barney". This literally became a subject as later, Jimmy put on a tape of young Selena dancing and singing on the kids show. When asked whether she was embarrassed by it, Selena said "No, I embrace it. I'm always made fun of, [but] other than that, I'm good."

Talking about her appeal to young kids, Selena drew laughters when she told Jimmy that sometimes she makes little kids believe in magic. "The little kids always say 'Is the magic real?'. And I look at them and I always say 'Well, do you believe it's real?' and then they say 'Yeah!'. I say 'Well then it's real!'," she said.

Selena additionally talked about her show's nomination at the upcoming Primetime Emmy Awards. Asked whether she has any rift with stars of the fellow nominees, "iCarly" and "Hannah Montana", Selena said "No. I'm fine with whoever wins, as long as it's a Disney show."

Jimmy showed a copy of her new CD "Kiss and Tell" to the audience. Although she has a new single from the album, Selena did not perform on the talk show. Instead, country singer Darius Rucker was brought in as the musical guest.
