Selena Marie Gomez (born July 22, 1992) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and television producer. After appearing on the children's series Barney & Friends (2002–2004), she received wider recognition for her portrayal of Alex Russo on the Emmy Award-winning Disney Channel television series Wizards of Waverly Place, which aired from 2007 until 2012.
Gomez also starred in the films Another Cinderella Story (2008), Princess Protection Program (2009), Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie (2009), Ramona and Beezus (2010), and Monte Carlo (2011). Thereafter, she focused on more mature roles in Spring Breakers (2012), Getaway (2013), The Fundamentals of Caring (2016), and The Dead Don't Die (2019). She voices the character of Mavis in the Hotel Transylvania film franchise, and serves as an executive producer of the Netflix television drama series 13 Reasons Why (2017–present) and the Netflix documentary series Living Undocumented (2019).
A special tribute! After undergoing a kidney transplant, Selena Gomez gave her new organ a sweet nickname.“I named it after Fred Armisen because I love Portlandia,” the Only Murders in the Building star, 30, told Rolling Stone in an interview published on Thursday, November 3. “I’ve never met him, but I’m secretly hoping he finds that out just because I want him to be like, ‘That’s weird.’”While the 55-year-old Saturday Night Live alum — who cocreated the sketch comedy series with Carrie Brownstein — has not addressed Gomez’s tribute, she has been candid about her health journey through the years.“I’m very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn’t promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of.
So I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my lupus and was recovering. It was what I needed to do for my overall health,” the Rare Beauty founder wrote via Instagram in September 2017, two years after announcing her diagnosis.As Gomez searched for a transplant donor, she discovered longtime friend Francia Raisa was a match.“My kidneys were shutting down.
My mentality was to keep going,” Gomez explained during a September 2017 episode of the Today show of her “life or death” operation. “[Francia] lived with me during this interesting time where my kidneys were just done.
That was it, and I didn’t want to ask a single person in my life. The thought of asking someone to do that was really difficult for me.
