“I met her in London [and] we just became fast friends,” Puth, 24, tells ET during an exclusive sit-down chat in the living room of his new home in the Hollywood Hills.
“This record, ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore,’ was not even recorded in a studio,” he revealed. “The guitar line that I had in my head started in Japan. I got my guitar, I was like, 'Yo, lay this down,’ I was in my hotel room, and I literally record the guitar with my iPhone, which is crazy. I didn’t even have a mic set up. Went to the Philippines, produced the beat out, like the drums, and I recorded the vocal back in Los Angeles. Then, a week later, I called Selena up after I sent it to her, and she fell in love with the song.”
Then came the task of recording Gomez’s vocals – and the process was unconventional, for sure!
“She came over and I literally set the mic up in a closet,” Puth revealed with a laugh. “So, I can say that I’ve vocal produced Selena Gomez while she’s in a closet recording. It was, like, the most ghetto set up ever, but I think it added to the quaintness of the record. She did a really good job, too.”
While Puth took the reins as producer on the track, the 23-year-old Gomez offered up plenty of sage advice about making it in the music biz.
“She’s very used to the spotlight, and I’m now kind of getting in that world, and I kind of got freaked out about it. She’s a really good person that I can kind of turn to and ask for advice,” Puth said.
The best words of wisdom she’s offered? “'Don’t show all of your cards,’ she told me
