Day off from Justin? Selena Gomez takes a break from Bieber with a family trip to the Los Angeles Zoo

By Holly Thomas


Look, no boyfriend! Selena Gomez seemed perfectly content to spare a Saturday apart from Justin Bieber as she enjoyed a relaxing trip to the Los Angeles Zoo with her family


The amorous young couple have barely been seen apart over the last few months.

But it seems Selena Gomez is occasionally able to tear herself away from her pop star beau Justin Bieber.

The 19-year-old actress and singer was spotted enjoying a relaxing day at Los Angeles Zoo with her family.


Both of Selena's divorced parents, Mandy Teefy and Ricardo Gomez accompanied the teen.

Mandy and Ricardo split up when Selena was five years old, but the threesome still get together to enjoy the occasional outing.

Selena looked perfectly relaxed with both of them, laughing with her father and engaging in what looked like some in-depth girl chat with her mother.

The family grabbed some refreshments at a Sweet Treats cafe and stopped to admire the giraffes as they enjoyed their drinks.

Selena also refueled with a bag of popcorn as she made her way around the zoo.

The Wizards Of Waverly place star looked casual in pale grey leggings and a grey stripy cardigan, but added an appropriate touch of fun by draping a purple monkey toy around her neck.

A tan leather handbag and black boots smartened up her ensemble, and teen kept her hair out of the way with a cute Alice band.

At one point Selena smiled for fans who spotted the incognito star by the chimpanzee pen, though her father looked rather less comfortable with the encounter.

Prior to her zoo excursion, Selena was reportedly also spotted with both of her parents breakfasting in a Los Angeles diner.

She was spotted outside texting at one point however, so perhaps absent Justin wasn't too far from her thoughts.

Having sold out the venue three times, Justin didn't even have to pay for the hire.

According to TMZ, a source close to Bieber has said: 'Here's how it went down tonight ... Justin took Selena to the Demi Lovato concert at neighboring Nokia Theater.'

'He then said, "Come with me" and took her underground to Staples Center to watch the biggest shipwreck of all time.'.

Going solo: Selena seemed to manage her beau's absence rather well, though in fairness the pair had recently indulged in a romantic date


Thoughtful Bieber apparently had the idea after seeing the film Mr Deeds, in which Adam Sandler's character surprises Winona Ryder with a similar evening at Madison Square

The couple also indulged in a stroll down Paradise Cove beach in Malibu to complete the date.

Selena and Justin have been coined 'Brangelina 2,0' after Bieber posted a joke picture on his Instagram account of the two surrounded by toddlers.
