Selena Gomez says she’s stayed off the internet for more than four years and it’s helped her mental health
Selena Gomez was dubbed the “queen of Instagram” as the most-followed celebrity on the social media platform back in 2016.
Last year, she told InStyle she “created a system” where she doesn’t know the passwords to her social media accounts — a step she said was necessary in order to focus on herself.
The Only Murders in the Building star explained that “growing up in the spotlight has definitely taught me so much.”
In an interview with Elle magazine last year, she touched on the public scrutiny she faced over the years — including a very public breakup with Justin Bieber, undergoing a kidney transplant due to her lupus diagnosis and seeking mental health treatment.
“I don’t even know what they really believed I was doing — drugs, alcohol, running around, partying,” she explained of the negative press she endured. “The narrative was so nasty.”
Selena Marie Gomez is an American singer, actress, and producer. She has been regarded as a “triple threat”. Gomez began her acting career on the children’s television series Barney & Friends.
Selena Gomez was known for her starring role on the 2007–12 Disney television series Wizards of Waverly Place and as the singer of such pop hit songs as “Come & Get It” and “Same Old Love.”
