Selena Gomez

A Closer Look at Selena Gomez

With her recent sucess as both actress and songstress, the beautiful Selena Gomez may soon join the likes of Angelina Joli, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Anniston, Pamela Anderson, Megan Fox, Lindsay Lohan, and Jessica Alba as one of the top female celebrities of our time! Young actresses such as Gomez, Jaden Smith, Robert Patinson and Kristen Stewart hold the world in their hands, yet remain humble and grateful for their success. Selena holds herself to high standards, listing Salma Hayek, Jessica Alba and Christina Aguilera as influences.


But did you know Selena also cares for underprivileged kids everywhere? That’s right, Selena is the youngest ever advocate for UNICEF, and raised over $700,000 through her Trick or Treat campaign. She has also recently formed the talent and production company July Moon to help other people achieve their dreams of becoming singers, actors, and musicians. So get your demo together; Selena Gomez is the new P. Diddy! She also plans to release her new fashion line “Dream Out Loud by Selena Gomez” soon, even as she is a spokesperson for the new Sears Back to School campaign. Ok, wow. Can we say new diva awesome?

Selena owes much of her maturity to her upbringing, which shaped her values. Selena has even been asked whether her Hispanic upbringing was a detriment to her making it as an entertainer. She herself says, “I realize everybody wants what they don`t have.” Selena also thinks that her attitude is essential to making it in Hollywood, because she has seen so many actresses fall into the trap of being what they think everybody else wants. Selena idolizes actresses like Salma Hayek for being able to use their individuality to their advantage. Also, unlike other young actresses like Lindsay Lohan , Selena has conducted herself with poise through many potentially publicly humiliating situations, such as the Miley Cyrus fiasco. Selena is one of the most thoughtful and mature young actresses in the entertainment business, and we all look forward to what she does next!
