The 18-year-old star has filmed a pilot for the as-yet untitled programme, which is said to be similar to ‘Punk’d’ – in which Ashton Kutcher played tricks o other celebrities and secretly filmed their reactions.

A source told website HollywoodLife.com: “Selena shot the pilot and it’s basically like Ashton Kutcher’s old show, ‘Punk’d’, but with the Disney kids.

“Selena was having a ton of fun with it. She’s a goof ball at heart.”

A spokesperson for Zoo Productions, who are making the show, said they were unable to discuss the project.
While Selena isn’t known for her love of pranks, the ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ star is sure to have had a few pulled on her, as her boyfriend Justin Bieber is famously a trickster.

The ‘Baby’ hitmaker has previously revealed he called rapper Akon and pretended to be his illegitimate son star after stealing his number from the phone of his manager Scooter Braun.

Scooter recalled: "He was like, 'Daddy, why don't you love me?'  It really scared the s**t out of Akon!"

Justin was later asked about his telephone tricks by a fan on twitter and admitted making joke calls to people is one of his favorite pastimes.

He tweeted: "R u Kidding of course I do!! I prank everyone!! No 1 is safe :) (sic)"
