Selena Gomez has revealed the story behind her broken hand.
The singer, 31, admitted she sustained the injury after tripping on her long summer dress.
During an appearance on The Ellen K Morning Show, Selena confessed: ‘So I wish I had like a really cool story that I saved someone’s life or something. But I was in a long dress, it was a summer dress, and I was walking from my car to my house and tripped.
‘As a mother, I just want to say if you were my daughter, I would say thank God you didn’t break your teeth,’ host Ellen said.
‘Yes, that’s what the doctor said. I guess there is a silver lining. But this is not fun, this is not fun,’ Selena said.

It comes several days after Selena revealed she had broken her hand and had to undergo surgery for it.
Writing in the comments section of a fan account promoting her new song Single Soon she said, ‘Broke my hand and had surgery.’
The Calm singer followed that brief disclosure with, ‘I don’t care about selling anything. I’m just happy to make music with my friends.’

Selena’s tune about plotting to break up with her beau received 33-percent of the vote.
