Who wouldn't want Selena Gomez as a big sister?!

The 25-year-old songstress posted an empowering video on her Instagram that shows a candid and inspiring moment with her 4-year-old sister Gracie Elliot Teefey.

In the video, Gracie says, "I'm not scared."

Encouraging her, Selena says, "'Cause you are fearless, right? You're not scared of anything, right?"

Then the two high five.

Along with the video, the queen of Instagram wrote a powerful message to her 128 million fans.

The "Fetish" singer wrote, "I will forever let my sister know she is strong, bold and beautiful. She will be raised to know her voice matters. She is going to understand the importance behind being a leader and inspire others by her truth."

Selena and Gracie share the same mother, Mandy Teefy, who was married to Selena's father from 1992-1997 and then married Brian Teefey in 2006. The duo had Gracie in 2013.

Soon after her sister was born, Gomez, who has often said she loves "littles," talked to E! News about having her first sibling.

She gushed, "Gracie is five months old, she's adorable. I'm obsessed with her and becoming a big sister…I know I've had the responsibility to be a role model for girls but, when you have a little sister of your own, you kinda think, 'OK, this is legit.'"

Looks like she's still obsessed and still a great role model!

Meanwhile, Gomez and her boyfriend Abel Tesfaye (The Weeknd) had a fun-filled weekend. The twosome were spotted in Los Angeles at Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights on a date night wearing matching black hoodies.
