Selena Gomez posted a stunning photo of herself in a bathing suit on Instagram on Wednesday and garnered 1.5 million ‘likes’ and 2.7 thousand shares in just two hours.

The pop starlet, 23, showed off her winsome curves in a dark blue two-piece that appeared to have high-waisted bottoms and a bikini top.

She posed for the camera with the bikini straps pulled down over her bare arms and with her long brunette hair left loose and tousled.

Selena shows off her left thigh tattoo where she has inked the phrase ‘God Who Strengthens Me’ in cursive.

The Hands To Myself singer does just that, folding her arms across the exposed waist.

She is wearing very little make-up apart from some eye-liner and mascara and appears to be posing on a hotel balcony surrounded by lush foliage and with a tennis court in the background.

Earlier on Wednesday, she’d shared a photo of herself in her dressing room at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee, where she performed Tuesday night.

She’s seen relaxing in an armchair wrapped in a blanket and clutching a coffee mug.

The photo, shot from behind, shows her reaching forward to tap on her laptop computer where a TV show is playing.

‘The one thing that gets me going before anything.. Sheldon Cooper -Big Bang Theory,’ she explained in the caption.

Selena’s Nashville performance made major headlines Wednesday after it was revealed that her BFF Taylor Swift had been in the audience along with new beau Tom Hiddleston.

Tom and Taylor were photographed leaving the gig hand-in-hand and inside the arena, were captured on cell phone video bopping along to the tunes.

Selena is on her revival Tour, that kicked off last month.

On Wednesday night, she’s scheduled to play a concert in Louisville, Kentucky, and will continue on the North American leg until July 11 in Quebec City, Canada.

Then she heads off for concerts around the world in support of her second studio album, ending in Mexico in December.
