Selena Gomez has announced an exciting new collaboration with K-Pop girlband Blackpink coming later this month.

On Twitter this week, the singer told fans that she was "So SO excited to announce @BlackPinkOfficial and I have a new song coming out August 28th!"

She didn't reveal the name of the song, but we probably won't have too long to wait until we find out.

Earlier this month, Blackpink's record label announced the band have a new single on the way and teased a mystery collaborator, tweeting: "#BLACKPINK NEW SINGLE (Feat. ?)."

On July 28, the band announced on Twitter that their debut album, titled The Album, would be released on October 2, following on from their 2019 EP 'Kill This Love'.

And it's been quite a time for the band recently, as they also featured on that track 'Sour Candy' on Lady Gaga's latest album Chromatica.

Little Mix recently teased they'd love to work with the band too, with Jade Thirlwall saying: "We're just waiting for the DM back."

Meanwhile, it was announced earlier this month that Gomez has landed a role in Steve Martin and Martin Short's new sitcom Only Murders in the Building, which will air on Hulu.

The series follows three strangers (Martin, Short and Gomez) who are all obsessed with true crime, but then find themselves wrapped up in a real-life mystery they must solve.

Gomez will also executive produce the show alongside Martin and co-creator John Hoffman.

When the series was announced in June, Short said (via Deadline): "I'm so proud to say that this show is already one of the highlights of my career."

Martin joked: "I'm proud to say it's a blip on the radar of mine."
