In a new promo clip for the MTV European Music Awards, the 19-year-old swaps her sparkly Disney pop star status for a rapping, rougher alter ego.

Done up in heavy makeup and an open flannel shirt that exposes her bra, Gomez drops the beat, “Who else better than me to be hosting the show/ People know who the eff I is/ I’m a pro/ The right time and place for me to be/ Yeah, I’ll say it/ Congratulations to me!”
