Career of Selena Gomez

Gomez’s journey in the entertainment industry kicked off when she was just fifteen, appearing in a Disney Channel series. However, her musical talents soon took center stage, evident from her string of hit singles and chart-topping albums. She initially got her start on the children’s television show Barney and Friends, a result of her upbringing in Texas. While she landed minor roles in various TV programs, it wasn’t until 2004 that her acting career took off when she was discovered through a national talent search for the Disney Channel. Guest appearances on Hannah Montana and Her own show, The Wizards of Waverly Place, quickly rose to fame after its premiere in October 2007, following the path laid by The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. Alongside her work on the show, Gomez ventured into other acting roles and began to nurture her singing career.

Selena Gomez’s career in pop music

Gomez embarked on her journey into pop music by crafting songs for her own Disney projects.In addition to providing her vocals for The Wizards of Waverly Place’s soundtrack, she also contributed extra recordings to the show’s album and performed its theme song. Furthermore, she had a notable presence on the soundtrack of the family movie Another Cinderella Story. In 2009, Selena Gomez & the Scene, her teenage pop group, was formed, along with securing a record deal with Hollywood Records. Their first album, Kiss & Tell, was released in the same year and reached gold certification, followed by A Year Without Rain in 2010. Despite her busy schedule filming The Wizards of Waverly Place and making her debut in the 2010 film Ramona and Beezus, Gomez’s musical endeavors continued to engage audiences with unwavering enthusiasm.

Gomez’s final season and Her band

When the final season of The Wizards of Waverly Place aired in November 2010, Gomez reunited with her band. They went on to produce and release their third album, When the Sun Goes Down, later in the same year. Subsequently, she decided to take a break from singing to focus more on her acting career. Her breakthrough performance in the mature-themed film Spring Breakers in 2013 showcased her versatility beyond her earlier youthful roles. Making a comeback to the music scene in 2013, Gomez released her fourth album, marking her solo debut under her own name. This album showcased her versatility by incorporating elements of R&B, EDM, and dubstep into her musical style.

Selena Gomez’s Hollywood record

When Stars Dancing was released in July 2013, it ranked first on the Billboard 200. She sacked her management team and broke up her relationship with Hollywood Records, making the remaining months of that year somewhat difficult for her. But she quickly recovered, landing a record deal with Interscope. In late 2014, a farewell Hollywood album named For You—a hits collection that fulfilled contracts—was published, featuring the platinum single “The Heart Wants What It Wants,” which was written by the artist herself.

Gomez made a cameo on Zedd’s popular EDM song “I Want You to Know” at the beginning of 2015. Following that breakthrough, she released her own single, “Good for You,” which was co-written by rapper A$AP Rocky and produced by Sir Nolan and Nick Monson. Rocky made a special appearance on the song. The song was on her debut Interscope album, Revival, released in 2015. The album featured a multitude of collaborators, such as Mattman & Robin, Hit-Boy, and Benny Blanco, alongside songwriters Charli XCX, Julia Michaels, and Chloe Angelides. Despite this, Gomez actively co-wrote and served as executive producer for six tracks, marking it as her most collaborative project thus far. Upon its debut at the summit of the Billboard 200 chart, the album propelled Gomez into the ranks of the sixth female artist since 1992 to achieve at least three number-one singles on the Top 40 list from the same album. Gomez, who was supporting Revival with a tour, decided to take a break from the spotlight to deal with personal health issues related to her lupus. She later disclosed that she had a kidney transplant during her absence.

After initially crossing paths in 2009, she and Bieber finally started dating intermittently. Despite their definitive breakup in the beginning of 2018, the romance continues to fuel the rumors about famous people. The social media drama between Gomez and Hailey Bieber, whom Justin married in September 2018, caused a stir on the internet in 2023.

Gomez and her mother Mandy Teefy have a history of open conflict. In December 2017, the two stopped following each other on Instagram. Some people assumed this was because the singer had resumed her romance with Bieber, but another source claimed there was more to it than that. Later, Teefy expressed her dissatisfaction with her daughter dating Bieber to Gossip Cop, but acknowledged that there wasn’t much she could do about it. “As long as Selena is content, safe, and well, she can live her life as she pleases.
