Early life
Selena Marie Gomez was born on July 22, 1992, in Grand Prairie, Texas,[1] to Ricardo Joel Gomez and Texas-born[2] former stage actress Mandy Teefey.[3] She was named after Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla, who died in 1995.[4][5] Her father is of Mexican descent, while her mother, who was adopted, has Italian ancestry.[6][7][8] Gomez's paternal grandparents emigrated to Texas from Monterrey in the 1970s.[9] Of her heritage, Gomez has said she is "a proud third-generation American-Mexican"[10] and "My family does have quinceañeras, and we go to the communion church. We do everything that's Catholic, but we don't really have anything traditional except go to the park and have barbecues on Sundays after church."[11] Gomez was fluent in Spanish until age seven.[9] Her parents divorced when she was five years old, and she remained with her mother.[3][12] Gomez has two younger half-sisters and a younger stepbrother: Gracie Elliot Teefey, through Mandy and her second husband, Brian Teefey,[13][14] and Victoria "Tori" and Marcus Gomez, through Ricardo and his second wife, Sara.[15] She earned her high-school diploma through homeschooling in May 2010.[16]
Gomez was born when her mother was 16 years old.[17] The family had financial troubles throughout Gomez's childhood, her mother struggling to provide for the pair. At one point, Gomez recalls that they had to search for quarters just to get gas for their car. Her mother later recalled that the two would frequently walk to their local dollar store to buy spaghetti for dinner.[18] Gomez has said, "I was frustrated that my parents weren't together, and never saw the light at the end of the tunnel where my mom was working hard to provide a better life for me. I'm terrified of what I would have become if I'd stayed [in Texas]."[19] She later added that her mother "was really strong around me. Having me at 16 had to have been a big responsibility. She gave up everything for me, had three jobs, supported me, sacrificed her life for me." Gomez had a close relationship with her grandparents as a child and appeared in various pageants. Her grandparents often took care of her while her parents finished their schooling, and she has said they "raised her" until she found success in show business.[20]
Career
2002–2006: Career beginnings
Gomez first gained an interest in pursuing a career in entertainment watching her mother prepare for stage productions.[21] In 2002, she began her acting career on the children's television series Barney Friends,[22][23] portraying the character Gianna.[24] The show was her first acting gig. Gomez recalled of the experience, "I was very shy when I was little [...] I didn't know what 'camera right' was. I didn't know what blocking was. I learned everything from Barney."[25] Gomez appeared in thirteen episodes of the show between 2002 and 2004; the show's producers released her as she was "too old" for the series.[25] While working on Barney Friends, Gomez had bit part roles in the film Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003) and the made-for-television film Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire (2005).[26][27] She guest starred in a 2006 episode of the Disney Channel series The Suite Life of Zack Cody.[28][27]
2007–2012: Breakthrough with Disney and Selena Gomez the Scene
Gomez was given a recurring role on the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana in 2007 as pop star Mikayla.[25] During this time, Gomez filmed pilot episodes for two potential Disney Channel series; the first was a Suite Life spin-off titled Arwin!,[29] and the second was a Lizzie McGuire spin-off titled What's Stevie Thinking?.[30][31] She later auditioned for a role in the network's series Wizards of Waverly Place, ultimately winning the lead role of Alex Russo.[25] Gomez and her mother subsequently moved to Los Angeles.[23] Wizards of Waverly Place saw Gomez playing a teenage girl in a family of wizards who own a restaurant in New York City.[32] It quickly became a success for the Disney Channel and represented Gomez's breakthrough into the mainstream.[33] The role brought Gomez "teen idol" status.[34][35] And she also became one of the ten highest-paid children's TV stars of all time, earning from US$25,000-30,000 per episode.[36][37] The series received numerous awards and nominations,[38][39] and won the Outstanding Children's Program at the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards.[40] It garnered positive reviews,[41][42] with Gomez's being particularly praised for her comic timing and sarcastic delivery.[41][43][44]
While working on the second season of Wizards of Waverly Place, Gomez voiced Helga in the animated film Horton Hears a Who! (2008).[45] The film was a critical and commercial success, grossing nearly $300 million worldwide.[46][47] Gomez had a leading role as an aspiring dancer Mary Santiago in Another Cinderella Story (2008), the second installment of the A Cinderella Story series, released on direct-to-video.[48] She won the Young Artist Award for this role.[49][50] She contributed three songs to the soundtrack, including the single "Tell Me Something I Don't Know",[51][52] which was her first ever entry on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.[53] She also recorded the original song "Fly to Your Heart" for the soundtrack of the animated film Tinker Bell (2008).[54]
At age 16, Gomez signed a record deal with Hollywood Records.[55][56] Gomez formed her own production company in 2008, which she called July Moon Productions.[57] She partnered with XYZ Films for the project, allowing Gomez to option articles, hire writers and create talent packages to shop to studios.[57][58] Gomez was slated to release two films under the company. The first, titled What Boys Want, would feature Gomez as a girl who could hear the thoughts of men.[59] She later announced a film adaptation of the novel Thirteen Reasons Why, in which she was to play a young girl who commits suicide; ultimately, neither film was made,[60] but Gomez would later executive produce a television adaptation of Thirteen Reasons Why.[61]
Gomez continued to enjoy mainstream success throughout the following year, appearing as Alex Russo in a crossover episode of the Disney Channel series The Suite Life on Deck in 2009.[62] She also guest starred as herself on the Disney Channel series Sonny with a Chance.[63] Gomez, along with Demi Lovato, starred in the Disney Channel film Princess Protection Program, which aired in June 2009.[64] The film had a total of 8.5 million viewers during its premiere.[65] For the film's soundtrack, the pair recorded the song "One and the Same", which charted at number eighty-second in the U.S.[53] She next starred in Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie, a television film based on the series.[66] The film premiered in August to an audience of 11.4 million viewers, becoming cable's number-one scripted telecast of the year and was the second-most watched TV movie on cable, behind High School Musical 2.[67][68][69] Roxana Hadadi of The Washington Post credited all three performers—Gomez, David Henrie and Jake T. Austin—for their "acting skills that carry the film".[70] The film won the series its second consecutive Emmy for Outstanding Children's Program at the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards.[71] Gomez recorded three songs on the television series and film's soundtrack, including the single "Magic",[72][73] which reached number sixty-one in the U.S.[53] She then voiced Princess Selenia in the English-language French animated/live-action film Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard (2009).[74]
Hoping to cross over into the music industry, Gomez formed the pop rock band Selena Gomez the Scene through her record deal with Hollywood Records.[75] The name of the band is an "ironic jab" at the people who called Gomez a "wannabe scene".[76] The group released their first studio album, Kiss Tell, in August 2009,[77][78] which debuted at number nine on the Billboard 200 albums chart in the U.S. with first-week sales of 66,000 copies.[79] The album received mixed reviews, with some critics praising its "fun" nature and others criticizing Gomez's vocal performance.[80][81] Although the lead single was not commercially successful,[53] the second single, "Naturally", reached number twenty-nine in the U.S. and number seven in the United Kingdom,[53][82] and was certified 4× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[83] In July 2010, Gomez starred alongside Joey King in Ramona and Beezus, a film adaptation of the children's novel series by Beverly Cleary, in which she portrayed Beezus Quimby.[84][85] The film was well received by critics;[86] Roger Ebert described it as "a sweet salute", and found both actresses "appealing".[87] Gomez later reprised the voice role of Princess Selenia in Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds (2010).[88]
Selena Gomez the Scene released their second studio album A Year Without Rain that same year,[89] which debuted on the U.S. Billboard 200 at number four with sales of over 66,000.[89] The album received mixed to positive reviews, where some critics reacting negatively to Gomez's Auto-Tuned vocals.[90] Both of the record's singles, "Round Round" and "A Year Without Rain", achieved moderate success.[53] The band was awarded Favorite Breakout Artist at the 37th People's Choice Awards.[91] Selena Gomez the Scene released their third and final studio album, When the Sun Goes Down, in June 2011, to mixed reviews.[92] It debuted at number four on the U.S. Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 78,000 copies, and peaked at number three the following week.[93] When the Sun Goes Down also reached the top ten of most major music charts worldwide, and reached number two in Canada and Spain.[94] The album's lead single, "Who Says", was the band's highest charting effort, peaking at number twenty-one in the U.S.[53] Its second single, "Love You like a Love Song", went on to become the band's highest performing single in the U.S. to date,[95] peaking at number twenty-two on the Billboard Hot 100, where it spent 38 weeks,[53] and reached the top ten in Canada.[96] The song was certified 5× Platinum by the RIAA.[83] In 2022, Billboard ranked the song as the biggest song that peaked at number twenty-two.[97] The band's three studio albums have all been certified gold by the RIAA, and all of the singles from the band's three albums have been certified gold or higher by the RIAA.[98] For two years in a row (2010–2011), Billboard magazine ranked Gomez third in their list of 21 Under 21: Music's Hottest Minors, an annual ranking of the most popular musicians under the age of 21.[99][100]
Gomez starred in the comedy film Monte Carlo (2011), with Leighton Meester and Katie Cassidy;[101][102] she played the lead role of Grace, a teenager "mistaken for a socialite", Cordelia (also Gomez), "while on a trip to Paris".[101][102] In preparation for the role, she learned to play polo and received dialect coaching to speak in two different British accents;[103][104] Gomez's accent was described as "unconvincing".[105] The film received mixed reviews from critic.[106] Nick Schager from Slant Magazine found Gomez "cute, but too bland to lend the proceedings any vivid character, except for the few scenes that allow her to indulge her cold, sarcastic, nasty side as Cordelia".[107] That year, Gomez appeared in a cameo role in the film The Muppets.[108] Gomez hosted in June the MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto, Canada, and in November the MTV Europe Music Awards in Belfast, Northern Ireland.[109][110]
2012–2014: Stars Dance and films
Gomez confirmed in January 2012 that she would be taking a break from music, placing Selena Gomez the Scene on hiatus.[111] That year, Wizards of Waverly Place officially ended its run on the Disney Channel after four seasons.[112][113] For five years in a row (2009-2013), Gomez was the most beloved kids' TV actress, winning the Kids' Choice Award for Favorite TV Actress five times in a row.[b] She currently holds the record for the most Kids' Choice Awards wins (12) for an individual.[114][115] Gomez was part of the ensemble cast of the controversial exploitation Harmony Korine-directed Spring Breakers (2012), starring James Franco, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine.[116][117] The film premiered at the 69th Venice International Film Festival,[118] and was released the following year.[119] The story followed four college-aged girls who decide to rob a fast food restaurant in order to pay for their spring break.[120] It saw Gomez playing a more mature character than she did previously and reportedly led to her having a "bit of a meltdown on set".[12] Spring Breakers polarized audiences;[121] the film received generally positive reviews from critics,[122] with some calling it a potential cult classic;[123][124][125] it ranked in BBC's 100 Greatest Films of the 21st Century.[126]
Gomez was cast as Mavis Dracula in the animated film Hotel Transylvania (2012),[127] which premiered at the 37th annual Toronto International Film Festival,[128] and released in theaters the same month to mixed reviews.[129][130] The film was a commercial success, grossing $358 million worldwide.[131] In 2013, Gomez starred alongside Ethan Hawke in the action thriller Getaway, in which she played a young hacker.[132][133] The film was a critical and commercial failure,[134][135] and earned Gomez a nomination for Worst Actress at the 34th Golden Raspberry Awards.[136] Christopher Orr of The Atlantic described her as "a kid trying desperately to act like a grownup, but with no real idea what that might entail".[137] Gomez also served as executive producer and starred on the Disney Channel special The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex (2013).[138]
Despite earlier claims that she would be taking a break from music, Gomez announced in March 2013 the release of her solo debut album.[139] In April 2013, Gomez released "Come Get It" as the lead single.[140] It became Gomez's first top-ten entry on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, reaching number six.[141][142] The song also reached the top ten on charts in Canada and the U.K.[143] The second single, "Slow Down", peaked at number twenty-seven in the U.S.[141] Stars Dance was released in July 2013.[144] The record is musically rooted in EDM and electropop.[145][146] It became her first album to debut at number one in the U.S., selling 97,000 copies in its first week,[93][147] and also reached number one in Canada.[148] It received mixed reviews from music critics, with some noticing her inability to create her own musical identity and panning her vocal abilities.[149][150] Gomez incorporated choreographed dance routines into the album's music videos and her promotional live performances, having been inspired by artists such as Janet Jackson and Britney Spears.[151][152] The video of "Come Get It" won the Best Pop Video at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.[153]
Gomez began her Stars Dance Tour in August 2013.[154][155] After playing shows in North America and Europe, Gomez canceled the Australian and Asian legs of the tour in December 2013, claiming that she would be taking a hiatus to spend time with her family.[156] In January 2014, it was reported that Gomez had spent two weeks at Dawn at The Meadows, which is a treatment center in Wickenburg, Arizona, that specializes in treating addiction and trauma in young people.[157] Her representative stated that she had spent time there "voluntarily [...] but not for substance abuse".[158][159] Gomez confirmed in 2015 that she had been diagnosed with lupus and that after canceling the tour she entered rehab to undergo chemotherapy.[160][161] Gomez played Nina Pennington, an innocent straight-A student, in Behaving Badly (2014).[162][163] The project, filmed prior to Gomez's stint in rehab, was released in August to a generally negative critical and commercial reception.[164][165][166] The author of the original autobiographical novel disavowed the film.[167] However, critics deemed Gomez's performance superior to the film;[166][168] Stephen Dalton from The Hollywood Reporter wrote: "Gomez gives the one-dimensional Nina an emotional maturity that deserves a better movie than this".[169] Gomez also had a supporting role in the drama Rudderless (2014), the directorial debut of William H. Macy.[170][171][172] The independent film premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival,[173] and received a mixed reception from critics.[174][175] Gomez recorded the song "Hold On" with Ben Kweller for the film's soundtrack.[176] At the 2014 Teen Choice Awards, Gomez was honored with the Ultimate Choice Award for her "contributions to the entertainment world".[177]
In April of that year, it was reported that Gomez had fired her mother and stepfather as her managers, who had served in those roles since the beginning of her career.[178] Gomez later signed with the WME and Brillstein companies to manage her career.[179][180] The news of Gomez's new management also fueled rumors that her contract with Hollywood Records was coming to an end and that she was searching for a new label.[181] Gomez surprise-released her new single "The Heart Wants What It Wants" in November 2014, and confirmed after months of speculation that she would be releasing a compilation album as a means of finishing out her contract with Hollywood Records.[181] The single became her second top-ten hit in the U.S.[53] That same month, Gomez released her first solo compilation album, For You.[182] The album entered the U.S. Billboard 200 at number twenty-four.[183] Gomez officially parted ways with Hollywood Records and later signed with Interscope Records in December 2014.[184]
2015–2016: Revival
While working on her second studio album, Gomez collaborated with German DJ Zedd on "I Want You to Know", released in February 2015,[185] and reached the top twenty in the U.S.[53] In May, she appeared in Taylor Swift's music video for "Bad Blood".[186] Gomez released "Good for You" featuring rapper ASAP Rocky as the lead single from her second studio album, in June.[187] The song debuted at number one on the Digital Songs chart with first-week sales of 179,000 copies—the best sales week in Gomez's career for a single. It was the chart's first number-one debut since Swift's "Blank Space" (2014).[188] "Good for You" became Gomez's first top-five single on the Billboard Hot 100, and her first single to top the Mainstream Top 40 chart.[189][190] It also reached the top ten on charts in Australia and Canada.[191] Gomez later reprised the voice role of Mavis in Hotel Transylvania 2 (2015); the film was met with a positive critical reception and commercial success upon release,[192] grossing $474 million worldwide.[193] She was awarded Favorite Animated Movie Voice at the 42nd People's Choice Awards.[194]
Gomez released her second studio album, Revival, in October 2015.[195] It is primarily a dance-pop and electropop record with RB vibes.[196][197] The album was reviewed positively by critics, who praised its production and lyrical content.[198][199][200] Writing for Rolling Stone, Brittany Spanos stated that "Revival is an audacious name for a 23-year-old singer's second album, but from start to finish, Gomez earns it," noting that "[t]his is the sound of a newly empowered pop artist growing into her strengths like never before."[201] Kristen S.Hé of Billboard called it "one of the most influential pop albums of the late 2010s."[202] The album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 117,000 album units,[203] and was certified platinum by the RIAA.[204] It remains Gomez's highest first-week sales to date.[203] "Same Old Love" was released as the album's second single and topped the Mainstream Top 40 chart.[205][206] It also peaked at number five in the U.S., tying with "Good for You" as Gomez's highest-charting single at the time.[53] "Hands to Myself" served as the album's third single and became her third consecutive number one on the Mainstream Top 40,[207] making Gomez one of only six female artists to have three singles from the same album top the chart.[208] The single also peaked within the top ten in the U.S.[53] For her performance on Billboard's music charts, Gomez received the Chart-Topper Award at the 2015 Billboard Women in Music event.[209]

Gomez addressed the controversy, saying that "We stayed very true to the book and that's initially what [author] Jay Asher created was a beautifully tragic, complicated yet suspenseful story and I think that's what we wanted to do. We wanted to do it justice and, yeah, [the backlash is] gonna come no matter what. It's not an easy subject to talk about, but I'm very fortunate with how it's doing.[255] Despite the controversy, the first season was a critical success.[256] However, the other three seasons received generally negative reviews.[257][258][259] 13 Reasons Why was the most tweeted about show of 2017, and the most-watched original streaming series of 2018.[260][261] In 2022, its second season ranks as the ninth most watched English-language television series on Netflix, with 496.1 million hours viewed within 28 days of release.[262][263] The series ended after four seasons in June 2020.[264] Gomez recorded a cover version of the song "Only You" for the series' first season soundtrack.[265]

So it's pretty incredible."[499][500] Gomez said, of her role as ambassador, that "Every day 25,000 children die from preventable causes.

In the wake of the Alabama abortion ban in May 2019, Gomez spoke out on Instagram in favor of abortion rights in the United States.[557] Amidst Roe v. Wade being overturned in June 2022, Gomez stated she is "not happy" and that "men need to stand up and also speak against this issue. It's also the amount of women that are hurting."[558] Gomez is a critic of racism and supported the Black Lives Matter movement, lending her Instagram account to Alicia Garza, co-creator of Black Lives Matter and one of the founders of Black Futures Lab, in June 2020.[559][560] In May 2021, Gomez participated in the VAX Live: The Concert to Reunite the World concert organized by Global Citizen to promote the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines worldwide through the COVAX program.

She has said, "He actually used me as an example for other kids: I'm going to keep my promise to myself, to my family and to God." Gomez stopped wearing the ring in 2010.[568] In 2017, she said she did not like the term "religion" and that sometimes it "freaks me out," adding, "I don't know if it's necessarily that I believe in religion as much as I believe in faith and a relationship with God."[569] In 2014, Gomez said that she listened to "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Hillsong United before performing at the 2014 American Music Awards.[570] In 2016, she appeared at a Hillsong Young Free concert in Los Angeles, leading worship by singing her song "Nobody".[571][572][573] When a fan on Twitter asked her who the lyrics to "Nobody" refer to, Gomez replied that they refer to God.[574] She also covered Hillsong Worship's song "Transfiguration" during her Revival Tour.[575] As of 2020, she attends a different congregation in California, the Hillsong Church,[576][577] and has said that she does not consider herself religious, but is more concerned with her faith and connection to God.[578]
Health
Gomez was diagnosed with lupus sometime between 2012 and early 2014. In September 2017, she revealed on Instagram that she had withdrawn from public events during the previous few months because she had received a kidney transplant from actress and friend Francia Raisa.[579][580][581] During the transplant, an artery broke and emergency surgery was conducted to build a new artery using a vein from her leg.[582][583][584]
Gomez has been open about her struggles with both anxiety and depression. She began pursuing therapy in her early twenties and also spent time in treatment facilities. When she reached 100 million Instagram followers, Gomez said she "sort of freaked out" and has since taken several extended breaks from social media, due in part to negative comments.[585] In April 2020, she revealed she has bipolar disorder.[586][587]
In October 2022, Gomez canceled an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon after testing positive for COVID-19.[588] In November 2022, she revealed that she had an episode of psychosis in 2018.[419]
