Selena Gomez commands an Instagram following of 428 million, outnumbering the combined followers of Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and the Kardashians. Despite her early fame from Disney Channel, the constant scrutiny has taken a toll on her mental health, leading to social media breaks and seeking treatment at a psychiatric facility. In response, Gomez has become an advocate for mental health awareness, launching initiatives like the Rare Impact Fund and Wondermind, and engaging in discussions with President Biden to combat stigma.
Alongside her successful projects like Rare Beauty, “Only Murders in the Building,” and “Selena + Chef,” Gomez continues to use her massive platform for real conversations about her struggles and accomplishments.
