mandy (selena’s mom) gave everything up in her life just because of selena, had three jobs to take care of her. one of the jobs were being a stage actress so when she goes to audition she always brings selena with her and her mom noticed how intersted was selena in these stuff
one day they saw a barney & friends audition poster on a board so they decided to give it a try because why not ?
and here where it all began selena was in barney for 3 years in 14 episodes, after that she auditioned for spy kids 3 and she got the role so this was her first movie ever, a few years later she got a part in walker texas ranger.

selena has been also struggling with depression in a point of her life due to her several break-ups with her ex boyfriend and her health, she dealt with anxiety as well. but this girl is too strong to let a disease or anything ruines her life she keeps standing up no matter what
in 2015 she signed to interscope records (her current label ) and released one of the best albums in her discography (revival) she proved once again how an amazing artist she is and how’s her music is growing , different from everyone else’s coming with a new sound everytime
2016 was an amazing year for selena till one day in the middle of revival tour she cancelled the rest of the shows and rechecked into rehab to focus on her mental health she was MIA her fans were so worried no one knows where she is for a whole 3 months
She made her first public appearance at the 2016 AMAs and gave us one of the best heart touching speeches ever.
in 2017 selena had kidney transplant due to her lupus and the donor was her best friend. a few days before the surgery she made a post on IG saying goodbye to her fans in case she didn’t make it but no one had any idea
she took 5 years without releasing a new album. but a few songs just for her fans, in 2020 she came back healthier than ever and released her #1 song on bb100 (lose you to love me) with her #1 album this year (rare) and we couldn’t be more happier to have her in our lives
this was a story of a girl who knew exactly what she wanted by age 11 and she made it happen. who fought for her place and believed no hardship whether it be family, heartbreak or health could hold her back from her dreams this is the story of “Selena Gomez”
all of the success in her life yet she never forgets about others. selena is one of the few celebrities that are known for their charity work, from the start of her career till this day.
