It's no secret that fame comes with a price.

Many stars sacrifice having a private life in order to do what they love and Selena Gomez knows all too well that being in the spotlight can take its toll, especially when one is dealing with something as sensitive as a breakup.

During the E! Special Ryan Seacrest with Selena Gomez, premiering this Sunday, Seacrest asks Gomez if dealing with such things in public ever gets "unbearable."

"I'm sure you could actually see those pictures of me being, like, way stressed out about it," she told him. "And it's hard, because what do you do? Do you just wanna sit in your house and hide and not go anywhere?"

Gomez went through a very public breakup with longtime boyfriend Justin Bieber in November, their crazy schedules made it hard to maintain the relationship.

"It's uncomfortable that everywhere I go, people know," the Spring Breakers star said in the May issue of InStyle. "I don't like that. But Justin and I never really focused on the attention. You can't help who you date. So I wouldn't swear off that or say that's what I want again. I don't know. I'm a kid, and a breakup is normal. I have to go through the emotions and feel it out. I'm doing my own thing, being with my friends, and he's doing very well too."

Selena is indeed not one to let the stressful times get the best of her, and she tells Seacrest that she has a lot of exciting things to look forward to.

"Yeah, you know I think it's time," the singer says about getting her own place.

"I didn't ever wanna be forceful to saying, 'OK, I've made enough to get my own house and OK, let's blow it off and do whatever.' I just love being with my family and I love knowing that they're there. But yeah, I think it's probably time for me to get my own house."
