Selena Gomez Says Barney Actor Was 'Very' Hot Out of Costume

Selena Gomez starred on the show Barney & Friends as a child and she’s opening up about the actor who played the purple dinosaur!

“He was [hot]. Very much so,” the 25-year-old entertainer said in an interview with BBC Radio 1.

“You have to be very fit to do that because it’s 50 pounds of costumes,” Selena added. “So he’d take it off and he’d have his muscles and he’s sweating and we’re like, ‘Okay, we are children,’ but it was great.”

Selena also said that she remembers co-star and friend Demi Lovato saying that the Barney actor was hot “at the age of eight.”
