Selena Gomez‘ role in Spring Breakers is a long way from the Disney persona she has portrayed in the past and it looks like the party girl life might have been too much for her.

The 20-year-old showed off her wild side in the film, prancing around in bikinis and guzzling alcohol, but she just revealed that filming the party scenes was very stressful. So stressful, she had a breakdown.

Selena recently chatted with The Guardian and admits that all the attention she got from hundreds of fans and photographers while in skimpy outfits was uncomfortable.

She says:

“I had a mini breakdown on set. There was too much attention, photographers, hundreds of fans, and all of us in bikinis in the pool. I got overwhelmed doing some of the things we were doing and having such an active audience at all times, even though I knew at heart we were super-safe.”

The actress only felt able to continue after having a heart-to-heart chat with the film’s director, Harmony Korine. Selena says:

“Harmony went over to her and said: ‘This is really happening, this is you right at this moment,’ and he encouraged her to use it, and from that moment on she imbued her character with a whole new extra dimension.”
