“When I first started out on Disney Channel, the head of the network at the time, Gary Marsh, was also the person who had discovered Selena [Gomez]. I owe him everything, what he did for me and my career,” Dove recalled in a red carpet interview with Buzzfeed at Jingle Ball in NYC this weekend.
She added that Gary told her that he really wanted her to meet Selena.
“‘She can talk to you about what this is about to be because you’re life’s going to change,’” Dove recalled her conversation.
Dove did meet with Selena after that and said that as far as first impressions go, “She was really kind. She had me over to her house. I had never even done anything, I wasn’t doing interviews or anything. We sat at her kitchen table for hours, I think she offered to make me toast.”
“She gave me some advice on what not to do, and definitely things to do,” Dove added. “For a couple months following that I would text her in a panic being like, ‘I don’t know what to do, I’ve never done this before!’ And she’s like, ‘Be yourself, everybody wants you to be yourself. You’re gonna kill it.’ That was really important to me.”
Here’s what’s up next for Dove!
