New York City, New York - World-wide multi-platinum-selling Hollywood Records’ recording artist Selena Gomez (SelenaGomez.MTV.com) is set to debut her new single, “Come & Get It,” on television for the first time during the “2013 MTV Movie Awards” LIVE on Sunday, April 14, 2013 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.

Gomez recently spoke to MTV News about her upcoming performance, the new album and why she thinks the Movie Awards is the perfect place to perform it for the first time:

“It’s really cool because I got to take a year off of music and really be a part of great movies and work with great people… so, I thought it would perfect that I kind of go into music again through MTV and then the Movie Awards… I’m so stoked.”

“I really wanted [the album] to be a different level for me… so for the performance I’m just going to try to
do things that nobody has ever seen from me before and kind of take it to the next level…”

The “2013 MTV Movie Awards” will serve as the official kick off to the Summer Blockbuster season with rising superstar and host Rebel Wilson set to go off and deliver the show's trademark irreverent celebration of the movies, actors and music that audiences love LIVE on Sunday, April 14 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.
