Selena Gomez has really come into her own in recent years. While she could have been just another teen pop star footnote, the ex-gf of Justin Bieber, etc., Gomez has really cultivated herself as something more meaningful, full of depth, and not afraid to speak her mind. Becoming a respected actor in recent years (“Only Murders In The Building”), she’s also transformed herself into an outspoken advocate for mental health. She’s essentially a multi-hyphenate now: singer, songwriter, actress, producer, entrepreneur, and activist, with no signs of quitting at any of it.
