Selena Gomez has been M.I.A. as of late and we've been wondering ourselves what she's been up to ...

Well Us Weekly caught up with Selena's Wizards of Waverly Place co-star and pal Bailee Madison and she spilled the beans! Bailee says it involves plenty of girl-time and chat sessions: "We’re all girls and at the end of the day, we like to talk about what we’re going through and be there for one another, just like any other girl session."

When asked why Madison looks to Gomez to be her "big sis," Bailee replied, "I think she’s been through everything and more and has been so authentic and wonderful on the way up. And as a 19-year-old just trying to navigate the business, it’s lovely to get to have someone like that to look up to."

The pair, along with their squad, hit Big Bear Mountain December 18, shortly after Selena left an east-coast treatment facility to work on some "mental issues," with which she was struggling. Then Selena was out and about in LA -- hiking, lunching out with pals -- almost every day following that but she's since retreated.

We here at X17 have speculated the singer-actress may have found the re-entry into the spotlight a little jarring and perhaps needed to distance herself from the headlines again, so she's decided to keep a lower profile.

Sounds like she's still getting the support she needs from her friends and that her "girl time" is key. We hope Selena's doing well!

Chris Pratt isn't bending in his dedication to Zoe church, despite actress Ellen Page's recent criticism of the Lego Movie 2 actor worshiping at a church she claims is anti-LGBT.

Pratt and fiancee Katherine Schwarzenegger brought along his son Jack to the celeb-studded church, which is a sister church of the A-listers favorite, Hillsong. In fact, it's their faith that Chris and Kate point to as having brought them together. And it's Chris' religious devotion that gave hims a six-pack, too!

The actor recently told Stephen Colbert that he followed the "Daniel Diet," also subscribed to by the pastor at his church, that requires dieters not to eat anything other than vegetables or to drink anything other than water for 21 days -- a kind of fasting prescribed in the Book of Daniel. It sure worked! Pratt, 39, looks better than ever, which may have also helped him snag the much-younger Schwarzenegger, 29. Hey, whatever works!

Ewwww! Okay, sorry -- not politically correct. Poor Kim!

Mrs. Kanye West is open and honest about her battle with psoriasis and she get REALLY real today when she Instagramed these selfies of her face, broken out in a rash, with herbal ointment applied.

"I am super desperate with my psoriasis [and so I] went to a Chinese herbalist," she wrote. "I have my own mixture. I have to drink it twice a day and it is so nasty. Hopefully this works. I'll see in six weeks."

We hope so too! Must be tough as heck to contour with all that going on!

Happy birthday, Stormi!

Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott threw a low-key birthday party for daughter Stormi's first birthday on Saturday -- the event was postponed from a previous date due to rain. They rented out a warehouse, had a custom inflatable of Stormi's face, the entire interior of amusement games were custom-made for the tot, all based on Kylie's "dream." Simple and age-appropriate, right?!

The Lip Kit maven and her rapper hubby created #StormiWorld -- a play on Scott's Astroworld album name -- in honor of their baby girl. There was a ball pit, a life-size spinner wheel, amusement rides, Louis Vuitton-inspired French fries, and even a "Baby Shark" performance.

Kylie wrote on Instagram: "I had to go all out for my baby." Uh, yeah!

Cut OFF!

Grammy show producers cut to commercial in the middle of Drake's acceptance speech for Best Rap Song last night because he was about to shade the awards themselves ...

As Drake picked up the award for "God's Plan," he gave an inspiration speech to all of his competitors who didn't win -- and to those who aspire to do what he does but aren't yet at the top of the heap. He said, "This is the first time in Grammy history where I actually am who I thought I was for a second, so I like that. To the kids watching, those aspiring to do music, and all my peers that make music from their heart, that do things pure and tell the truth. Know we play in an opinion-based sport, not a factual-based sport. It is not the NBA… This is a business where sometimes it is up to a bunch of people that might not understand what a mixed race kid from Canada has to say… or a brother from Houston right there, my brother Travis. You’ve already won if you have people who are singing your songs word for word, if you are a hero in your hometown. If there is people who have regular jobs who are coming out in the rain, in the snow, spending their hard-earned money to buy tickets to come to your shows, you don’t need this right here, I promise you, you already won.”

Then, mid-sentence the rapper was cut off and the show went to commercial. The audience groaned and when the show's producers were asked about the incident after the show, they said Drake was offered the opportunity to go back on stage and finish but he declined. "During Drake’s speech, there was a natural pause and at that moment the producers did assume that he was done and then cut to commercial,” said PR firm Sunshine Sachs’ Michael Samonte. “However the producers did speak with Drake following his speech and did offer him to come back on stage to finish whatever his thoughts were. But Drake said he was happy with what he said and didn’t have anything to add.”

Drake was asked to preform this year -- as he has been probably most every year -- but he also declined. He hasn't been seen at the show since 2013.

Jennifer Aniston celebrated her 50th birthday Saturday night and her exes came out of the woodwork!

The Friends star went to her favorite supper club at Sunset Tower in West Hollywood to fete ... herself! Pals like George and Amal Clooney, Gwyneth Paltrow, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, Reese Witherspoon, Jon Hamm, Kate Hudson, John Mayer and Brad Pitt all turned out for the bash!

The star-studded event was missing one of Aniston's significant others -- ex-hubby Justin Theroux. As was recently reported, the former husband and wife have "no contact" and made a "clean break" after their February 2018 divorce, only three years into their marriage.

Chelsea Handler, Ellen DeGeneres, Courteney Cox and her ex-hubby David Arquette, Robert Downey, Jr., David Spade, Pharrell, Diane Keaton, Barbra Streisand -- this was an A-list HEAVEN!

Five-year-old North West is already having emotional breakdowns over her makeup ... Yes, a five-year-old!

Kim Kardashian told the audience at The Masterclass by Mario Dedivanovic with Kim Kardashian and Anastasia Soare at the Ace Hotel in Los Angeles on Saturday, that he oldest child had a great night at a father-daughter dance with Kanye -- in fact the pair won a trophy for the best dance. BUT, things didn't start off so well ...

Nori was being a diva and demanded blush on her cheeks of she was to be filmed doing the dance with her dad. She changed multiple times and wanted to get her look just right. But as she applied her cheek color, she broke down, saying to mom Kim, "I don't know how to blend! Kim replied: "I was like, ‘I can’t have this conversation with you, you’re 5!’”

Diva in training!

Ellen Page is no holds barred!

The Juno actress took to Twitter to express her opinion on Chris Pratt's religious practices, calling out the Lego Movie 2 star for praising the Zoe Church in LA. Why? Page says the church is based in anti-LGBTQ ideology, stemming from its connection to the Hillsong Church based in Australia.

Well we've all heard of Hillsong at this point -- church to the stars ... like Justin Bieber, Hailey Baldwin, Kourtney Kardashian, Taylor Lautner, Travis Barker, Lana Del Rey, Ciara and hubby Russell Wilson and more.

Page Tweeted Thursday evening: "Oh. K. Um. But his church is infamously anti lgbtq so maybe address that too?" In 2015, Hillsong pastor Brian Houston explained the church's position on gays: "Hillsong Church welcomes ALL people but does not affirm all lifestyles. Put clearly, we do not affirm a gay lifestyle and because of this we do not knowingly have actively gay people in positions of leadership, either paid or unpaid. I recognize this one statement alone is upsetting to people on both sides of this discussion, which points to the complexity of the issue for churches all over the world."

Wow! Unapologetic ... Page went on to clarify her critcism, on Saturday morning, "If you are a famous actor and you belong to an organization that hates a certain group of people, don’t be surprised if someone simply wonders why it’s not addressed. Being anti LGBTQ is wrong, there aren’t two sides. The damage it causes is severe. Full stop. Sending love to all."

Chris was in the news for his appearance on Colbert, during which he talked about his faith. He told the late show host: "There's this great quote, that I actually heard in church, and it felt really appropriate, which was, 'If the spotlight that's shining on you is brighter than the light that comes from within you, it'll kill you.' And you see it all the time. People in our position, people that are actors — you see it a lot. It's a real bright spotlight."



Well these stars love Hillsong and Zoe Church ... but is the public right to question these celebs' allegiance to a group that doesn't support LGBTQ? Yep!
