Selena loves Zayn Malik's 'vibe'; watches Justin Bieber show

Selena Gomez has gushed about the "vibe" of Zayn Malik's new music.

The 'Heart Wants What It Wants' hitmaker - who shocked fans when she attended her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber's 'Purpose' concert in Los Angeles last night - has praised the former One Direction star for his "clever" new music.

Speaking to Radio Hit 30, she said: "I'm as excited as you to listen [to his album 'Mind of Mine']. Honestly, I was very surprised when the first single came out. I loved when I heard.

"I love the new songs on it. I think this new vibe and where it is going is quite clever​."

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old singer previously revealed she would like to date older men but would make an exception for Zayn, who is also 23.

She said: "I hate it. It's hard and I'm weirded out by the idea that a guy has googled me before we meet, and that has happened. I feel like I look 16 sometimes, which is a bummer because I would love to date older guys."

Speaking about Zayn - who is currently dating Gigi Hadid, - she added: "If he had asked me out on a date, I would be seen with him. Just kidding, but not kidding."

Selena Gomez watches Justin Bieber show

Selena Gomez watched Justin Bieber perform at Los Angeles' Staples Center last on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old singer was spotted by eagle-eyed fans at Los Angeles' Staples Center in the sound mixing area taking in her former boyfriend's 'Purpose Tour' show.

The sighting comes a few days after Justin shared a throwback photo of himself kissing Selena, who he had an on/off relationship with from 2011 to 2014, on Instagram.

He captioned it simply: "Feels"

Not only did Selena like the picture, she also commented "perfect".

The 21-year-old singer - who has most recently been romantically linked with model Hailey Baldwin - previously admitted he and his former girlfriend are always there for one another, though they don't have a lot of contact.

He said: "We don't talk often, but we're cordial. If she needs something, I'm there for her. If I need something, she's there for me."

Meanwhile, Selena recently vowed never to date the 'What Do You Mean' singer again.

She said: "At first I didn't care. To me it was: I'm 18, I have a boyfriend, we look cute together, we like that. Then I got my heart broken and I cared. Because people had no idea what was going on, but everywhere it was a million different things. I was kind of in a corner, banging my head against the wall. I didn't know where to go."

About the constant references made about Justin in the media, she added: "I'm so exhausted. I honestly am so done. I care about his health and well-being. But I can't do it anymore."
