Happy birthday to the wonderful Selena Gomez! 🪄✨💜 —— Alex Russo (Selena Gomez) is the witty, rebellious, and endlessly lovable middle child of the Russo family in Wizards of Waverly Place. While she often uses magic to take shortcuts, Alex’s biggest strength has always been her heart, learning valuable lessons about family, friendship, and responsibility along the way. Her sarcastic humor, unforgettable one-liners, and incredible character growth made her one of Disney Channel’s most iconic characters, and Selena’s performance is a huge reason why Alex continues to resonate with audiences years later. #SelenaGomez #AlexRusso #WizardsOfWaverlyPlace #DisneyChannel #alexeussiedit [ selena gomez, alex russo, wizards of waverly place, disney channel, disney, tv edit, happy birthday selena gomez ]
