Selena Gomez has revealed that she would prefer Taylor Lautner's character in Twilight over that of his co-star Robert Pattinson.

The Wizards Of Waverly Place star, who was linked to Lautner over the summer, told MTV News that she would choose werewolf Jacob Black (Lautner) over vampire Edward Cullen (Pattinson).

"This question is so hard. I don't know, I like them both," she said.

"I have to choose one of them? I don't know, I guess Team Jacob, because I want to be a good friend.

"To be honest, I really wasn't [into the Twilight franchise]. I never read the books, I never saw the movie. And then, I got the wonderful opportunity of meeting Taylor, and we became friends."

She added: "I watched it because I love to support my friends and I ended up loving it. My mum and I were like, 'OK, this movie is pretty awesome'. We're going to the [New Moon] premiere."
