Selena Gomez Opens Up About Her Dreams

Selena Gomez shines on the red carpet, exuding grace and confidence, but she’s quick to remind everyone that things aren’t always as they seem. Take her latest project, “Emilia Pérez.” In this film, Gomez plays the wife of a powerful Mexican drug lord who undergoes a secret transformation. It’s a mix of true crime, love, self-discovery, and even some musical elements, and somehow it all comes together seamlessly.

Gomez shared that filming left her a bit sore from all the dance numbers, but she found the storyline incredibly captivating. At 32, Gomez has achieved a lot – from being a successful actor and singer-songwriter to creating Rare Beauty, a cosmetics line that made her a billionaire. She’s also deeply involved in philanthropy. But her journey started humbly, born in Grand Prairie, Texas. Raised by a hardworking single mother who instilled valuable life lessons in her, Gomez began her career at just 10 years old on “Barney & Friends” and later found fame on Disney Channel.

During the pandemic, she took on a new role as the host of “Selena + Chef,” a cooking show filmed in her own kitchen, showcasing her culinary skills – or lack thereof. And in 2021, she starred in the hit TV series “Only Murders in the Building” alongside Steve Martin and Martin Short, whom she admires for their kindness and mentorship.

Gomez openly discusses her health struggles, including lupus, a kidney transplant, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. She bravely shared her journey in the documentary “Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me,” offering a raw look at both her highs and lows. Despite feeling nervous about being vulnerable, she believes in the power of openness and strength that comes from sharing her story.

One of Gomez’s dreams is to use her platform to help others. She recently hosted a benefit for her Rare Impact Fund, dedicated to supporting young people facing mental health challenges. Alongside her charity work, she is romantically involved with music producer Benny Blanco, who, according to People Magazine, is one of the sexiest men alive. Through her multifaceted career and commitment to giving back, Selena Gomez continues to inspire and make a positive impact on the world.
