Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Yeah, actually, I do. It was one of the most emotional songs that I got to record during the process of shooting this movie. And I remember just singing it and thinking to myself, this could have been my song, you know, this could have been us.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
you know me song on an album I would put out personally because it's so well said and it feels very true to who I am to where I am I think that when I do make mistakes I don't feel like I should or necessarily need to be punished for them it's something that I feel like I need to grow and learn from and
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
And I think that sometimes there's been moments in my career where people weren't allowing me to grow up. They weren't allowing me to make choices that, you know, wasn't exactly what they thought I should be doing.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Sorry, Mom. Yeah, no, my mom was, you know, she was so just, I just remember feeling like she was the coolest person ever. She's still cool. But as a kid, I looked up to her so much.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Oh, yeah. She was a young, cool mom. We were like sisters in a way. And she loved everything about art. And I remember sometimes she would let me watch things, but she would do the old cover your ears noise, like, be careful. Yeah. So yeah, she was young. Maybe I shouldn't have watched some of the things I did. However, I think I fell in love with it for the right reasons.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
It was a whole range of different styles and we'd watch French films or we'd watch anything that kind of sparked something in my mom and she would explain things to me and I would always ask questions and I was inquisitive about the work and It wasn't just an experience for me. I wanted to know everything. And I think that's where it kind of stemmed from.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Yeah, the funny thing is, is I wasn't in any school plays necessarily. I was seven when I auditioned for Barney, which is the big purple dinosaur, if people don't remember. But I was in line. It was 1,400 kids, and it was in Texas. And I waited in line for a while, and I just thought, here's my chance. I could do something really cool. You thought that in the moment. Yeah.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
I just thought, this is something I really want to do, and I hope I get it. And I went to three rounds of callbacks. They were very serious about that party back in the day. And I got the part and it would have to be the first time I stepped foot on the set of Barney. It was magical. Not to mention I'm seven and they make it for kids.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
You know, they make it this beautiful experience and the sets are gorgeous. And I just got the bug immediately. I had school there as well. A bunch of kids I got to grow up with. And at the same time, maybe Barney taught me how to clean and how to say I love you.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Yeah, and I think I need to correct that because I think whenever I do interviews that are written, I think it's very challenging for me because it gets a little misunderstood. Music is going to forever be a part of my soul. I was named after a Tejano singer. My dad was a DJ. My mom listened to Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton, Bonnie Raitt.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
I grew up around music and every genre. So what I meant by that was... It did kind of, you know, take over for a while. And it's not that I was upset or bothered by it. It was more so that I had missed and I was really craving something different. I just really missed being on a set and creating content that had nothing to do with me.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Well, first off, Steve Martin and Martin Short are legends in their own right. And it is very difficult to keep a straight face when you're talking to them about anything because they simply... exude and radiate comedy how do you do it because you're the straight man of the three i know but i mean i i just have to i gotta get through it you know once we do the table read and they'll chime in it's
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
It is challenging, but I think the best part of Only Murders is the environment, and I think that's what Marty is referring to, because these two actors who have been working longer than I've been alive are always on time, could not be more compassionate and kind to everyone. Class act, intelligence, their humor is smart and wise.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
And they'll sit down and talk to, you know, our camera guy and ask how his daughter's doing. And it just, to me, was a very good place for me to start back into acting. It just was safe. And it was so fun. And they made it feel like it was, they just made it feel like it was home.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
That's insane. Neighborly. I mean, a murderer probably lives in the building, but I guess old white guys are only afraid of colon cancer and societal change. Sad.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
He didn't post much in his online world. He seems to have had a really sad, quiet life.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Yes, and it's an absolute joy. They'll joke and laugh and say, oh, we didn't know what to expect when we met Selena. But... I don't know, by the first week of us working together, they really took me under their wing. They didn't make me feel separate because I was younger. They made me feel incredibly included.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
If they would change a joke or want to try something different, they would always incorporate me into the conversation. And they respected me. And I felt safe. You know, these are gentlemen that want nothing from me but to have a great experience at work and create bonds with everybody on set. And they disarm people by their kindness.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
So yeah, I've done interviews or I've been upset on days of work. you know, working if I've got bad news. And they're protective. They listen. They give great advice. That's something I'll cherish. It could have been totally different. It could have been, you know, hard to connect. But they are genuinely wonderful people. And it's just been a huge blessing because I...
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
I get emotional thinking about it because I really do love them and they care about me a lot.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Oh, class act. Absolute class act. I always tell this story about her because I think it just sums who she is up really well. She was on set and because, of course, she's Meryl, we wanted to shoot her out so that she would have a shorter day out of respect for her and her schedule.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
So we would shoot her scenes and then we could say, okay, you can go home and someone would replace her and they would do the other actors. She refused. She said, no, I'm staying for all the actors. And it was probably 13 hours that she was on that set and the camera wasn't on her once. And she was thrilled to be there. She was so communicative to everyone.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
She would walk around barefoot, humming music, listening to folk music. She doesn't take herself too seriously. She read a comment about something that said that she was overrated, and she laughed, and she was, well, maybe they're right. You know, like she just has a good sense of humor about the icon that she is. And she doesn't look at herself that way. And I like that.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
I think during the period I was shooting the documentary, the context of what I felt was unfair is that I don't regret or dislike Disney. I think Disney gave me my platform and I will forever owe them for that because I was able to do incredible things. Doesn't mean that I wasn't frustrated with other people. So my frustration is not necessarily ever been with Disney.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
It's just been with the idea that people would not take anything I was saying not seriously. If it was me talking about philanthropy, if it was me wanting to talk about something important, it was me. Do you like marshmallows? And, you know, so you were on Disney. And it just felt so crippling. And I, at that point, when I shot the documentary, hadn't moved on into doing other things.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Yeah, I mean, I think my perspective goes both ways. You know, I think that there is a point in your life where you have to just You have to let yourself be a kid. And I think the dark sides that, you know, I would reflect on is the fact that I couldn't have a private life.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
I couldn't necessarily do things because I was held to a specific standard of like, you know, I'm a Disney kid and children look up to me. And all of that stuff was really difficult. I just, I don't want to necessarily... I guess I'm just trying to think about this because I know that there are incredible actors that have come out of this whole industry.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
But I think you can say that about anything sometimes. I guess what I'd say is I am actually glad that my sister doesn't want to do that right now, at least. I just think it is pretty dangerous. You're around adults. People say things. People... you know, do things that maybe you just shouldn't be exposed to.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
And the moment I first started experiencing fame, it wasn't something that I thought was cool. It got really, you know, weird for me. It felt uncomfortable. I remember being 15 at the beach with my family, and it was one of the first times there were like five girls
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
grown men taking photographs of me coming out of the water and i was sitting there and my stepdad got really upset because something seems extremely wrong with that underage and so i just to me that's the stuff that i don't think is right and i just it threw me off for a bit
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
They did. And here's the thing. My parents did the best with what they got. And they were 16 and 15. And they did their best. And it wasn't always perfect, but they, especially my mom and my stepdad, specifically made sure that they held up these boundaries that sometimes I'd get mad at, but they were necessary. For example...
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
You're inviting kids to this beautiful premiere, and they're walking the carpet and experiencing all this attention, and that can be overwhelming. Then I have the after party, and that's when kids can come and all the adults start drinking and all the stuff starts going on. At a very young age, my mom said, you're there to walk the carpet for your job, but then you're going home.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
And I'd always say, well, they're going to stay. And my other friend said, she said, you're not old enough. When you're old enough, you'll go to the parties and have all the fun. But right now you're going home and you can invite a friend over and just be, watch a movie, you know. And I do have to say she was very good at that stuff. And sorry, I'll just add, and in rooms.
Fresh Air
Alex Van Halen / Selena Gomez
Not necessarily auditions, but I did a lot on tape. So, but she was right by the door. You know, my mom was very protective of me in the best possible way. And though maybe it didn't make much sense to me then, I could not be more grateful now. Yeah. Yeah.
REAL AF with Andy Frisella
833. Andy & DJ CTI: Tech Stocks Lose $1T Over DeepSeek, Migrant Deportations & DEI Here To Stay?
I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry. All my people are getting attacked. The children are I don't understand. I'm so sorry. I wish I could do something, but I can't. I don't know what to do. I'll try everything I promise.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I went to a mental institute and canceled one of my tours. Really? Yeah.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah. It just got to me because I love working and it distracts me from bad things and I like that. So I just like working. I was just...
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Well, I do feel like I have one more album in me, but I would probably choose acting.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
You're right, but I am going to want to chill because I'm tired.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, I would say cosmetics. You know, it's been really fun, but we're actually starting to get into skin now. I know this is all girly stuff, but I'm excited. What are you talking about?
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I know, but we're going into skin now. It's about three years old, and it's honestly been the biggest gift because I launched it during COVID, and it just took off, and I couldn't be more thankful.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I was supposed to release it, like a month right into COVID so I had done all the promotion and everything it's about to come out and then we figured alright we'll just try online and I think makeup became really big during COVID because people would do the videos and they would you know create looks and it kind of just took off and
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I'm always like confused and just grateful because I've never been the type of person that I don't want to be or need to be the number one anything. And I think that's what my mom has instilled in me because I don't feel like anything's a competition. So I feel like there's room for everyone. For everybody, yeah. I'm really proud.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Oh, I don't know. I probably would have been a hot mess if I wasn't doing this. I already am. But I don't know. I don't know.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Well, thank you. Thank you. I don't know. Disney was like boot camp. You know, they were definitely- You know who doesn't have problems?
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, I think when I was younger, my mom... I mean, my mom was my mom. I was under 18. So I was getting invited to these events and stuff. And my mom from a very early age was like, you're going to walk the carpet. Maybe we'll stay for five minutes. But then adult time is probably going to happen. And, you know, it's like the Vanity Fair parties and all that stuff.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
So she was she was always very protective of me, but it never really felt like it was suffocating. And she would always say the same thing to me. She said, the moment you stop having fun, stop. It's okay. You know, like you don't need to just kill yourself over, you know, something if you're not happy.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
It's tough. No, it is. And the transition honestly happened around 25 where I didn't feel like I had to impress my parents more so. But my mom was also really cool because right after Disney, she put me in a movie called Spring Breakers. Like she found that movie and it's, you know, very racy.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
My mom was a huge Harmony Corrine fan. And she heard there was a script out. And so she was interested in it. And the character I play isn't as racy. So I was like 19 when I did it. And she just came up to me and she was, this will make no sense. And you're probably going to think I'm crazy, but just read this. And I read it and I don't know, I gravitated towards the character and
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Then I met Harmony and I was like, oh, game over. He's just really cool.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
She's really great at that stuff. She found the book 13 Reasons Why, which we turned into a TV show. So she randomly was at a bookstore and she was a young adult and found that and we developed it. She just has really nice taste.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, she's really great. So I like to ask her advice on things.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Definitely. I also have a few friends that are, you know, in comedy and writers. And it's just fun, you know. And now me and my family are in a place where we can do that. Yeah. And I don't mind saying the things that I'm walking through. And they can be fun and they can be messy. Yeah.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
It definitely, it connects you as well. I mean, that's why I released my documentary. It's all based on mental health. Which was incredible. Thank you so much.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Forgive me. I'm going to watch it. Don't worry. It's really kind of sad.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
But it ends well. I just I think that's why I did the documentary. I was terrified before it came out and I had already signed the contract and I was like, damn, I can't go back. But that was a really big moment for me. And then I had people coming up to me not saying like. Oh, my God, can I have a picture? They would say, I've dealt with depression or I've done this.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Sometimes with all my health stuff, like I've had a kidney transplant. I have high blood pressure. Gosh, I have mental issues.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
mental health and I don't even know I'm sure I have other problems that I'm not aware of but you can think about like a situation and say why me why me and instead it's given me the gift to say oh I know why it's me I'm there for those people that are going through what I went through and I can say I hear you and I see you not just be in and say my life's perfect but I'm sorry you know it's like well I can be honest with you
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I don't know. I think I just, I gravitate towards things I connect to and I'm all about authenticity. I can't really force myself to be anything other than who I am. And it's just, you know, luckily worked.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Maybe it has gotten sharper, but ever since I was younger, I like to think I had good discernment with people. And I could just sense when I felt... That it was being forced or that there was something they were wanting or whatever. I just could feel that in a lot of people. And, I mean, obviously I put some of those people in my life when I was younger and then I, you know, later realized.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
But most of my friends, like I said, they're, I mean, they can go from being a writer to one of my friends is a realtor. So, like, I kind of... Is that Richard Ehrlich? I kind of just... It's not Richard Ehrlich, is it? No.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, I know. I love life and I love people and I find it really fun.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I think it's a little bit of both. I wrote this ballad called Lose You to Love Me, and that was probably the most personal song I'd ever released about something that was on everyone's mind for some reason. And then in acting, I feel...
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
like i i have these moments in my life that have happened and i'm able to use that and it actually feels great um and it feels you know like after a good cry or something it's it's like a good feeling and um is there something that you i mean this is going to be one of the dumbest questions you've ever gotten is there something with every single thing that you've done where you're just like you know what i've never done i want i need to do that before oh yeah i don't think i've even been
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
began like in a lot of areas. Like I, not necessarily cosmetics and stuff, but like I've said many times with you guys, I think acting, like I don't think I've been able to even touch the surface of what I know that I'm capable of doing. And I'm very selective or else I'd be in all of the movies that I get offered. And I just fight for my roles and I'm always auditioning. So I like to earn it.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Kind of, but I just finished this movie, this Jacquard Yard film, and it's all in Spanish, and it's a musical, and it was one of the most challenging things that I'd done. Wow, that's cool. But it's really Emilia Perez. I think that will come out next year.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I'm excited for that because there's, for example, there's the scene where I'm being left. I'm not giving anything away. And I remember I channeled the moment when I had to go to rehab for the first time and leaving. And I remember I told my co-star that's what I was feeling in the moment. And I just felt like it was getting that out when I remembered that first moment and being terrified. Yeah.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I haven't. I think I would like to. I'm not sure I'm there yet because I think I'd still be a little nervous.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, but it's different because I love when I'm doing my concerts. It's like, oh, these are my peeps, you know? Right, right, right. Like you feel comfortable.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
very public life and it wasn't fair in a lot of ways that I got to the point so much so that I was like, if I don't talk about what's going on, everyone's going to continue to narrate my life and people are just going to buy it. And I need people to hear from me. And I genuinely stopped caring. Like, I don't care. Like, I would be happy to stand up and speak very highly of someone.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I'd be happy to do it. Even if I mess up, I'm like, all right, well, that sucked. But, you know, I tried. Like, it's fine. So I don't know if I'm just – I've done it for too long that I just have lost a little bit of that – Fear, but I still get the butterfly feeling. So maybe I just got used to it and then I'm kind of like, well, people are going to like it or not.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I used to do this when I was younger. I remember I was doing an interview and I sat down and there was probably 14 people behind the camera. And I was, I think I was maybe 21 and I started to sweat and I like ran away and I started crying because this is what I was thinking. I was like, these people probably think I sound stupid.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
they're going to go home and tell their partners or friends about how much of an idiot I am. And I feel like a horrible, like, interviewer. I just, it used to kill me. A panic attack.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Absolutely. I remember I was talking about this with someone and there was a study that said the moment you get famous at a certain age, you end up stuck in that area for a while because it stunts your... Emotionally. Yes, because it stunts... You're dealing with things that no...
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
child should be dealing with and criticizing my body or something weird like it just it felt oh just it doesn't feel good you can't grow privately like like most people do you know yeah so i mean i don't regret my life but there's a huge part of me that's like yeah i wonder what that would have been like to just be me for a second
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, no. It's intense. It's weird. It's such a bizarre thing. And they give you way too much information. Like they'll tell you how many accounts you had reached and they'll tell you the percentages of women versus male or... or non-binary, whatever it is, it's like, I don't need this information. I just want to post a photo and let it be for my fans and move on.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
To be honest, yes. And I like very dark documentaries sometimes. So I tend to like lean into those, especially scary stuff, like mentally.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
But no, it actually happened because, well, Steve's original idea was that it was going to be three men. And then John Hoffman suggested that they hired... Yes, who created the show. He said, I think it would be really cool if we added like a younger character, maybe a female. And Steve liked the idea. And I guess this was really a gift because they... had me in mind.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
And I remember thinking, I'm like, okay, well, what does this mean? And then I had FaceTime with all of them, with Steve, Marty and John and producers. And I was like, oh, I just have to do this because simply the people are amazing. And then the success of it after.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah. And then the success after was just, such a, like, surprise and we just were happy to do it.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I know, he does. My favorite thing about Steve, and he knows that I've said this before, but my favorite thing is Steve will be like... gotta get, I gotta get home. I gotta get home, I gotta go. I'm too old for this. And then I'll be like, then I'll be like, well, I go, Steve, like how many seasons do we do? He's like, oh, I don't want to stop. We're going to keep going.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
And I'm like, he's just like- Exactly. But you need to be home. So sometimes I'll be like, I'll carry the load because I get it.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, of course. I just wanted to tell you, Jason, really quick. Yes, ma'am. I am going to send your wife, Amanda, and your girls some of my new collection from Rare Beauty. Oh, you sweet thing. And like a whole little box because I would love to see, you know, what they thought.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yay, so awesome. I want to send you that because this is going to be one of the biggest collections that I've released. And I'm beyond stoked for it. I know it's little things like that that make me happy.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
But I think it's good products and we also just try not to be everything else, you know? Like, I'm not huge on promoting, like, crazy, you know, makeup. I love makeup, but I want my line to represent yourself and to have fun with it and...
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I am so happy, and hopefully I'll get to meet you all in person. I'm sure I'll run into you, Jason, and I'm just... I'm a big fan of all of you, and I've really been wanting to do this for a while. I'm sure you know Jason. So this has been really great. Thank you.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Unmotivated, perpetually failing. It was so hard not to laugh. It was so hard.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Oh, yes. Well, that is my beautiful background that I made for you guys because I figured that would be better than... You're keeping it real.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
I'm about 7, 7.30. Are there animals to feed? Yes, I have two dogs.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Um, they're little multi-poos. They're pretty annoying, but cute.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, my body does. I think, I don't know, for some reason, maybe the show or something, it's just embedded in me that I'm automatically up, and then I feel like a piece of shit if I wake up at, like, ten. Sure. Right. Even though those are nice.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, they are. I got them at two different times, but they definitely don't act like brother and sister.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, no, no. I actually am not afraid to say during COVID, I was very scared and lonely. And I found one on Craigslist because the mom was like, we have babies and we don't know what to do. They were like, we don't know what to do. Our dog had puppies. So I was like, I'll... Take one.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, it actually was really sketchy, though. They, like, drove in from Vegas and, like, rolled the window halfway down and then passed me the dog and wanted the cash.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
No, I actually don't mind this. This is a great way to start my day. You guys are making me laugh.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, she actually never pressured me or said that's what I should do. She just did a lot of theater growing up, so she never really did anything television-wise. And I was seven when I got my first job because I was the only child, super dramatic, and I was like... I'm so capable of this. Kind of all it takes. But it worked, and I've just been working ever since. Was this Barney? That was Barney.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, he was hot. He had to be, like, fit and, like, cute because he's warm. It's like, well, he doesn't have to be cute, but he was.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah, it was like a little thing, but I was in line with 1,400 people on a hot Texas day, and my mom was like, are you sure you want to do this? I was like, yeah. Mom's like, I'm fine.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Yeah. I mean, my mom wasn't very intense about what I could watch. So I would stay up and watch Friends with her and Will and Grace. Oh. That was like what I grew up with.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
For the longest time, by the way, on my bio on Instagram says, I love Will and Grace. No way.
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Thank you, honey. Yeah, for like a solid year. And then everyone was like, can you maybe change that? I was like...
SmartLess
"RE-RELEASE: Selena Gomez"
Oh, that's right. And then Karen got mad because she fell for you. And yes, I remember.
SmartLess

Well, I think that Disney is safe to say they're a machine and they kind of, in a way, not forcefully required that I know how to sing so I could sing like the theme song. Like they know how to package someone and like make it like a whole triple threat thing.

Yeah, so they asked me to do the theme song and I had fun with that. And then they were like, would you like to do an album? And I thought it would be fun. And I thought more than anything, it would be like a hobby that I really enjoyed. And how old are you at this point? I wanted to be a serious actress. I was 15. And I wanted to be an actress.

You know, I did. I don't think I'm the best singer, but I think I know how to tell stories.

Nice it makes to me that I feel like it's just about the song then.
