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 is opening up about how her Disney past still affects her. As many of you know, the Lose You to Love Me singer got her big break back in 2007 when she was cast in the role of Alex Russo on the Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place.
This was of course a dream come true, as it would be for many young actors attempting to break onto the scene. However, like many Disney child actors before her, the Selena + Chef star has since attempted to put as much distance between herself and the children’s show as possible.

In addition to releasing chart-topping music, the Texas native has executive produced Netflix’s Living Undocumented, which showed a harrowing look into the life of undocumented dreamers in the United States, and released the Apple TV+ documentary, My Mind & Me, which followed her life from 2016-202.
Oh, and she recently earned a Golden Globes nomination for her work on Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building… She was even just named as “bright star” in Vanity Fair’s 29th Annual Hollywood Issue!
