Selena Gomez has revealed the pearls of wisdom that her bestie, Taylor Swift imparted on her since her recent split with on-again, off-again boyfriend, Justin Bieber.

Stopping by The Talk, the 22-year-old singer admits her pal believes she will benefit from ditching people who no longer boost her life and career and that she needs to surround herself with "better" people.

"She [Taylor] was actually at my house the other day, and we were sitting by the fire and I was talking about relationships and business in my life," she revealed.

"She just kind of looked at me and was like, 'Selena, if you're the smartest person in the room, I think you're going to be in the wrong room.'

"She thinks I should constantly surround myself with people who are going to make me better, that are going to challenge and motivate me. It kind of stuck to me. I want to surround myself with those people."

Despite rumours that the pair had fallen out when the Come & Get It hitmaker rekindled her relationship with 20-year-old Justin, Selena insists Taylor will always stand by her and support her regardless of her choices in life, whether good or bad.

"She supports me and never judges me," she added.

Meanwhile, relationship advice isn't the only thing Taylor has been giving her pal as she's also been trying to persuade Selena, who recently moved out of her parents' house and into her own property in Los Angeles, to move to the East Coast.

"She's been begging me [to move to New York] every time we get on the phone, because it's been a really good thing for her," she has said previously.
