HOLLYWOOD, Ca., Dec.4 (TOTI) -- Selena Gomez, the 16 year old performer that sang the National Anthem at the 2008 Dallas vs. Seahawks football game on Thanksgiving Day, doesn't like it when her friends are feeling down.

The bubbly brunette recently told Tiger Beat how she brightens her friends day. She said, "I make a fool of myself in front of them."

She even has a special routine for her BFF, Demi Lovato. She continued, "If Demi is having a bad day, she'll come over and I'll just bring up inside jokes or I'll get up and start dancing. Then we'll pull out the ice cream."

What cheers up Selena when she's feeling sad? "When I'm having a bad day or I'm not feeling well, I love it when someone plays with my hair."

Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have been friends for years and host a popular Youtube channel.

Selena told Teen magazine, "We were playing with Demi's computer and I said, 'We should make a video just saying thank you to our fans for watching.' Plus we do so many silly things and half the time we go, 'If our fans knew they'd probably laugh at us and think we were such dorks!' So we did it strictly for our fans to show them who we are."
