Selena Gomez was spotted leaving an L.A.-area hospital earlier today, but we are happy to report that it was for no big reason.

Ms. Gomez decided to get tested for strep throat after ending her recording session earlier than planned yesterday "because her throat was bothering her," a source said.

"Also, her stepfather has had bronchitis so she wanted to be extra careful to make sure she wasn't getting it, too," the source added.

Gomez was out last night until after midnight helping Justin Bieber celebrate his big wins at the American Music Awards. They were spotted holding hands backstage and then at the official post-show party.

Gomez also attended Bieber and his manager Scooter Braun's private after-party at Bootsy Bellows in Hollywood.
