Selena Gomez strikes a cute pose while meeting “Santa” Stitch at Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Winter Castle on Saturday morning (November 7) in Anaheim, Calif.

The 17-year-old Disney starlet taped a segment for the 2009 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade, airing December 25 on ABC.

Yesterday, Sel tweeted, “[My mom Mandy] made me turn the depressing music off and put on ‘One Time’ by my boy Justin Bieber. Why does he always put me in a good mood?”
