Selena Gomez: "Give Miley and Demi a break!"

Glad to see that somebody is defending Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato!

Selena Gomez believes that the public needs to cut the Disney Channel stars some slack."It's a very hard business and I feel like people don't really understand what we go through. We're kids. People make mistakes. People have to figure out what we like and don't like."

Miley had taken quite a public beating since the bong video incident. And as if she didn't have enough trobules, her former BFF Nicole Mullen-Holm spoke out, claiming that Cyrus had been a bully in middle school(we think this is just a pathetic rumor).

Meanwhile, Demi Lovato is continuing her stay in rehab after she left the "Camp Rock 2" tour to seek treatment for emotional and physical issues. Lovato will be home for Christmas, but still has a ways to go in her treatment.

Selena Gomez does have a point. We really don't know what kinds of pressures these Disney stars are under. On top of the normal stresses of being a teenager, every mistake and unflattering moment is out there for the world to scrutinize.

Although Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato no longer seem to be BFF, it's nice to see that they still care about each other.
