Selena Gomez shares new pictures from her lovely trip in Italy

Selena Gomez may no longer be the most followed celebrity on social media, but whenever she takes a moment to post, her loyal followers instantly tap away at her pictures. Only one hour after sharing a carousel of photos from her recent birthday trip to Italy, the 27-year-old had already garnered almost two-million double taps. “Sometimes I can’t express how truly grateful am. Now… back to work,” wrote the I Can’t Get Enough singer next to a group of pics where she appears to be living her best life.

I wanted to thank each and every one of you for your words on my bday. Not just the quick notes,” she wrote before adding, “The thought that goes behind every word you write usually ends up with me crying grateful tears like I did last night. Praying for all of you!! I LOVE YOU.” There's no doubt Selena had a fabulous time on her trip abroad!
