As soon as the video of Selena Gomez`s new single Fetish` was uploaded to YouTube, fans went crazy after what the video was depicting.

In an interview with Dazed, the singer and the music video director Petra Collins discussed their ideas that were materialized to make an illusion of a concept into reality.

As the name suggests, Selena in the video has some weird fetishes, and it`s not what you`d think, but the video is much more about liberal love, the soothing yet dangerous limitless love that makes you want to fetish the love even more.

She says “You came over in the middle of the day and found me in my living room sitting on a big teddy bear watching Chucky so casually and then you came and laid with me,”

“I made it very clear to you that I didn`t see Fetish` how most people know the word at face value. When most people hear the word Fetish,` they think of S&M and all that sexual shit, but you didn`t. You knew why I loved it. You told me, I think this song is about love, something crazy and complicated.` I wanted the video to be contextualized,” she explains.

“The kitchen scene was so liberating, to lose control of my body and lose sight of myself,” she said. “It felt so good. I remember being a little nervous, and when shit hit the wall—I just lost it and left myself in that scene. It was so cool.” Gomez says.

“I`m not saying I`ve ever done something similar to the kitchen scene in real life, but I can say right now, I do weird shit all the time when I`m alone in my house. It`s how I express myself!” she continues

“I can tell you that neighborhood in the video looks exactly like the one I grew up in. I always felt like where I lived looked at the surface very innocent but I knew exactly what was going on behind each of the houses and [understood] that feeling of being isolated. I get it. There`s a reason there is no one else on the street in the video,” she said.

“With the way I grew up, I always felt like there was something inside of me that hadn`t been accessed. I hadn`t had the opportunity or confidence to find it. For so long I felt like I [wasn`t able] to do something like this, not because I don`t want to but because I lack that confidence. I have a lot of insecurities, but when I started working with you … We`re like sisters.” Said Gomez about the director, Petra Collins.
