Selena Gomez is reluctantly telling the real story about breaking her arm even though she wishes she had a better excuse for the injury.

I wish I had, like, a really cool story that I saved someones life or something, the Lose You To Love Me singer said during a recent appearance on the Ellen K Morning Show.

But I was in a long dress it was a summer dress and I was walking from my car to my house and tripped, Gomez said.

Ellen K chimed in to tell the singer, As a mother, I just want to say if you were my daughter, I would say, Thank God you didnt break your teeth.

Yes, thats what the doctor said, Gomez answered. I guess there is a silver lining. But this is not fun, this is not fun, she added, waving her black cast in the air.
