Selena Gomez Congo Trip

Selena Gomez will be heading to the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Africa.

Sel tells EOnline about her upcoming trip for UNICEF, “We first went to Ghana and then we went to Chile. In April, we’re going to go somewhere a little harder, the Congo…The first trips were to ease me into it.”

Selena has previously helped out the country — in 2009, she attended the Raise Hope for the Congo event in L.A. to help raise awareness about sexual violence against women and girls in the country.

She added about the trip, “I was talking to Joel Madden and he works with UNICEF and he went to the Congo. He said it was the most intense thing he had ever done in his entire life—and the best thing he had ever done.”

Selena rocks at UNICEF

Selena Gomez took the stage in Puerto Rico for UNICEF Charity Concert in a daring gown worthy of a Las Vegas showgirl. She wore a blue dress with a plunging neckline, sequinned hotpants and slinky skirt (short in the front, long in the back) that fluttered around her exposed legs as she danced. Selena's blue and purple highlights matched her scene-stealing dress during the opening night of her South American tour. Not only did she show off her amazing legs, but she whipped out her new hairdo as well. She wove some blue and purple extensions in her hair to complement her clothes and she really pulled off the look.

Selena Gomez Raises $200,000 for UNICEF


Selena Gomez headlined a charity concert at LA's House of Blues last night. Selena raised more than $200,000 for UNICEF, and she also got a big surprise when David Beckham and his three sons dropped by to see the show. David, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz made it a boys night out while Victoria stayed home with little Harper.
Selena also got support from Justin Bieber and Ashley Tisdale. She posted pic of her with Ashley at her Instagram. Selena joined United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) in 2008, speaking out on issues such as children's rights, and she became an official representative of the charitable cause the following year (09).
Selena later took to her Facebook page to thank her fans for their support, and revealed the concert had raised more than $200,000 (£125,000).
She posted on Facebook, "Thank You to all who came out to the show last night at House of Blues on Sunset. That is one of the shows I look forward to the most and cannot wait for next year's show.
"I don't have an exact number but together we all raised over 200,000 dollars to benefit Unicef. We're helping to save the lives of children all over the world."

Gomez, who has been a UNICEF Ambassador since 2009, said: 'Giving back is important to me. 'This concert allows me to connect with my fans in person which is one of the best parts of my job and to raise money for important causes at the same time. I can’t think of anything I'd enjoy more.'
