Unlike her troublemaking ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez says she's having the "best year" of her life. The pop princess hit up the Flaunt magazine party at Hakkasan in Beverly Hills on Thursday, Nov. 7, where she spoke to E! News about her Stars Dance tour and being single on the road.

"It's good. I'm having fun," said the singer, who turned heads in a LBD by Cushnie Et Ochs. "This has been the best year for me: I just turned 21, my record, the tour. I have a really good thing going."

Asked if she has time to date, Gomez laughed and replied, "No!"

Gomez kicked off her Stars Dance tour Aug. 14 in Vancouver and will continue to travel the globe until Jan. 21, 2014, when she wraps up her concert series in Nagoya, Japan. Before then, however, she'll be heading home for Thanksgiving to perform during the Dallas Cowboys' halftime show. The team will play the Oakland Raiders at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

"I'm from Dallas, so it's even scarier, but it's going to be great," Gomez said. Luckily, the "Birthday" singer won't be missing out on family traditions. "I'm going to have all the food packed up from home and actually at the venue so I get to have a home cooked meal while I'm there," she told E! News.
