… wow that’s quite a title. xD

Selena Gomez (along with Sean Kingston and Rosero McCoy) is a judge for the Make Your Mark competition. They actually filmed the show this past weekend and here’s a picture Selena tweeted from the event of her and Sean Kingston.

I’m sure you’re wondering, “how could they have already filmed the show before the voting?” Well, it’s simple really. One of my friends was there at the filming and she tells me that they simply filmed a winning segment for each contestant. So when they have the results, they just have to make sure they play the right clip. xD

  6. I think it is bs how people out there in this world exspeically in america can go around wearing uniforms of the armored forces who fighting over seas right now as I type this disrepect the arm forcess by wearing these uniforms as a fashion statement. I feel completely disrespected right now how disney can allow a judge on the make your mark ultimate dance off shake it up. I don’t feel that my uniform should be worn as a fashion statement exspeically if they are not a Marine. As a Marine I feel that risking my life and the brother and sister who paid the ultimate price being disrepected like we are on that show.

  14. I completely agree with Sgt Ingram (comment 6). The fact that this turd gets to wear a Uniform that I sweat and bled for when he probably doesn’t have the intestinal fortitude to sign up for the coast guard reserve is a slap in the face. And you know how Marines handle a slap in the face? A kick to the crotch and knife to the throat. First 50 cent starts it, and now the Uniform that my friends have been buried in has become the new hot black fashion. Knock it off hollywood, you want to show pride for the military? donate to the wounded warriors foundation, put in some face time at a USO show, don’t act like an ignorant retard.
