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).
Selena Gomez does Instagram well. But getting away from the social media app made her happier. Gomez is the most-followed woman on the platform, boasting 429 million users following her account.
But in a recent appearance at the 2024 TIME 100 Summit, the actress and singer said getting off Instagram was one of the best things she ever did for her mental health. “I took four years off of Instagram and I let my team post for me,” she said. “I felt like it was the most rewarding gift I gave myself.
I was more present. I was happier.” Gomez began connecting with friends over the phone rather than reading posts. “It’s more human,” she said. “I think it’s important to take breaks.” By providing your information, you agree to our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
