SELENA IS WAITING FOR YOUR CALL

Despite successes like Only Murders in the Building and the Oscar buzzy Emilia Pérez , the most followed woman on the planet still has to trick her way into auditions: 'We use a tactic where we don't tell them it's me' Ask Selena Gomez what she gets out of acting that music has not historically afforded her, and she replies in no uncertain terms: "Sanity." In the years that followed, music became the primary focus, a decision that garnered Grammy noms and more than 38 billion worldwide streams. Music will always be in my soul, but I never really got to spend enough time in the field that I originally wanted to be in. [...]I love those movies, but I have goals of wanting to work with specific people, people on my dream board, and so whenever those opportunities arise, I'll put myself in that room, no matter what it takes. Is that an accurate assessment?
