It all started after a tweet was published from one of Selena Gomez’s fan accounts and was claiming that the two pop stars will be teaming up for a duet.  As of right now, these are just rumours but how cool would a collab sound from Selena and Zayn?

Once word got out about the rumour, Twitter fans went crazy and although the majority are wishing for this to be true, others are not buying it.  Now If it is true, sources say that they will be performing the films lead song, ‘A Whole New World’.

See what Twitter is saying …

Naomi Scott will play Princess Jasmine

Disney seriously couldn't have picked a better choice! Whoever said that these two don't look alike is obviously reaching. ? Btw, I think that I'm going to start posting songs. I rrrrreally want to post "Proud Of Your Boy" because it's a real tear-jerker and gives me so much feels and because a lot of fans haven't seen the musical and really need to hear it… but I just haven't had time to cut it.

P.S. I think that these are the major characters because there was fuss surrounding each casting announcement. Minor actors have also been casted, but I'll wait until there's more news to do a proper post on them. #disney #disneysaladdin #menamassoud #princeali #nasimpedrad #marwankenzari #naomiscott #willsmith #genie #princessjasmine #arabiannights #singalong #lyrics #broadway #musical #awholenewworld #movie #theatre #performingarts #artist #acting #actor #music
