Selena Gomez Is Back in the Studio Again, But There's a Catch

She just posted very tease-y video of her singing in the studio.

Selena Gomez has hinted on Instagram several times that she has new music on the way. She appeared to give her most direct confirmation yesterday, when she posted a video of her (at least it sounds like her) singing a song she's never done before publicly.

She even applauded the songwriters in her caption: "I'm so happy for you guys -one of my favorite songs they have ever written." But fans quickly figured out the song isn't hers: It's actually Gomez's friend Julia Michaels' single "Issues". Gomez's and Michaels' voices are similar, but Gomez was just lip-syncing.

Here's the full song for comparison:

The fact remains though: Gomez was in a studio and wants you to know that. So chances are, she's up to something (we hope!).
