Friends and family are worried Justin is a very bad influence on Selena

Selena Gomez can’t quit Justin Bieber no matter how much her friends and family try to make her understand that he’s not good for her. The Biebs has managed to “brainwash” her and, since they got back together, she’s been acting “like a robot,” says a new report.

Selena and Justin go a long way back but, for the past several months, they have been on and off and, every time they were on, they went out of their way to keep it a secret. It’s almost as if Selena is ashamed or as if she knows she’s doing a bad thing by hanging out with Justin who, also recently, transformed himself into a bad boy, of sorts.

Now, insiders reveal for Radar Online that Selena isn’t even like her old self anymore, that much Justin’s presence has influenced her.

“Selena is now acting a little brainwashed and not challenging a thing Justin says. There was a time not long ago where they were fighting and arguing about their relationship, but now she’s like a robot and completely in his thrall,” says one such insider, refusing to go on the record with a name.

“Whatever he did to keep her from moving on from the relationship worked a little bit too well, because it’s like she’s a completely different person,” another source chimes in.

Because Selena recently decided to fire her mother and step dad, Mandy and Brian Teefey, as her managers, after they handled her career since she first started with Disney, there’s some buzz that her decision might have been taken on more than just professional considerations.

To put it bluntly, voices in the blogosphere are whispering that Mandy and Brian, thinking only of Selena’s well-being and career, warned her to stay away from Justin because he was leading her down a path that could ruin her, both personally and professionally. Since she’s still with Justin, she obviously disagreed.

Speaking of Selena’s parents, they admitted to being blindsided by her decision but said they would respect it either way. Selena told them she wants to hire a professional manager, and the rumor mill says that Kris Jenner, the mother and manager of the Jenner – Kardashian girls, is very interested in the position that just opened up.

It’s safe to say that, if Jenner ever gets to manage Selena, we’ll probably have a reality show with her relationship with Justin Bieber. And who knows what else.
