Gomez's serious mood comes as no surprise, as her new album is believed to be inspired by the singer's troubled relationship with bad boy Bieber.
The pair dated on and off for years, before calling it quits for good late last year.
Now, it's set to be the battle of the breakup albums, with reports Bieber is also back in the studio working on new material inspired by Gomez.

Gomez has been enjoying chart success lately, with her latest single Good For You racing to the top of the Billboard Charts.
The song, featuring A$AP Rocky, shows the former child star exploring a more adult, raunchy sound.
The singer's new album is said to showcase a more grown-up, contemporary vibe, with Gomez promising fans more honesty in her lyrics and music.
