Is This Bikini Photo From Selena Gomez’s Private Collection?

Over the weekend, a photo that appears to be a cell phone shot of Selena Gomez popped up online. Some doubted that the photo—which doesn't show the teen starlet's face—was actually the genuine article, but paparazzi photos (left and right) confirm that, at the very least, the girl in question is wearing the same bikini as the Disney star.

That said, even if it is the genuine article, it's not the most, ahem, revealing photo—though it does show us that, like the rest of us, Ms. Gomez is prone to taking sexy self portraits...and if she's anything like her predecessor Vanessa Hudgens, it's entirely possible that this leaked photo is but the first (and tamest) of a series to come. Fingers crossed, everybody. Fingers crossed.
