Selena Gomez strips to a thong and shows off pert posterior

Songstress Selena Gomez, who recently created a riff between herself and gal pal Bella Hadid, smouldered as she stripped to a lace thong for a photoshoot.

The baby-faced starlet, who confirmed to be dating Abel of The Weeknd, Bella Hadid's ex, teased fans as she showed off her peachy derriere.

The photograph was taken and posted by the acclaimed photographed Mert Alas, and Selena seemed to be naked underneath the white towel she covered herself with.

Showing off her brunette bob with large gold hoop earrings, Selena gazed with sexy eyes into the camera, and had her leans physique on show.

While Selena stays quiet on social media networks, Bella and Abel's fans are trolling her with commenting 'snake' on her pictures, and even Bella unfollowed her on Instagram.

Mert Alas took a step further by tagging Abel in the picture with a heart emoji, suggesting things are heating up between Selena and the singer.

Selena and The Weeknd have performed together in the 2015 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, and the two were spotted kissing after a romantic dinner date earlier this week.
