You can take the girl out of texas, but you can't take the Texas out of a girl. Today Selena Gomez spent time at the gun range when she needed a break from her busy schedule!

Selena Gomez may be one of the busiest young stars in Hollywood, juggling her burgeoning acting career while still making music and being a great girlfriend to Justin Bieber. But even teen stars need some time to relax and have fun, and while Selena may stay away from drugs and alcohol she can't resist a good firearm. "Released some stress today," Selena, 19, tweeted alongside a picture of her at a shooting range. Because of the starlet's innocent reputation, we expected her to be baking cookies in her free time rather than firing pistols. However, she's in Bulgaria right now shooting The Getaway remake, which is action packed. We imagine she's shooting the gun more for work, than for personal pleasure. Tell us what you think of Selena's relaxing hobby! [polldaddy poll=6234752]
