American singer and Actress, Selena Marie Gomez is the cover star for Elle Magazine’s October 2018 Issue and she’s dishing a lot of tea about life.
Gomez has been making some major changes in her life lately: moving from Los Angeles to the more suburban Orange County with a friend, working to sell her $3 million Fort Worth, Texas, mansion and volunteering at a global anti-human-trafficking nonprofit.
Here are a few excerpts from the cover story worth reading;
1. Speaking about the life changes:
“I think everything in my life is being majorly downsized, in a very good way”.“I’m going back to simplicity. That’s always who I’ve been. It’s not me saying, ‘I feel the best I’ve ever felt.’ It’s me saying, ‘I’m exactly where I am. And I’m so happy I’m in this place.’ It’s a lot of self-discovery. From 20 to 26? Oh my gosh. I feel like a totally different person.”
3. Speaking about her volunteer service and staying off social media:
“Right now I feel very sure of where I am,” she says. “I don’t feel erratic or emotionally unstable. Or like I can’t handle my emotions, like I used to. It’s kind of understanding myself a little more.” Part of that refresh came from pulling back from social media,
Gomez claims she hasn’t been on the internet in “months” and that she doesn’t even have any apps on her phone anymore or the password for her Instagram account.

4. On turning 26:
‘It’s peaceful. It’s weird. The moment I turned 26, I felt 26. I don’t feel erratic or emotionally unstable. Or like I can’t handle my emotions like I used to. It’s kind of understanding myself a little more. By all means, I don’t have myself figured out. But it feels good.’
5. On the meaning behind ‘Flawless,’ a song on her upcoming album:
‘Meaning through all your imperfections, you’re flawless. You’re not striving. It’s me encouraging a younger version of myself. Even when you’re imperfect, even when you’re feeling worthless, you are flawless. It’s a song I’m going to sing for the rest of my life.’
6. On supporting Demi Lovato:
‘All I’m saying is, I reached out personally. I didn’t do a public thing. I didn’t want to. I…I love her. I’ve known her since I was seven. So…it’s…that’s what I’ll say.’
7. On Her Support System and Future Endeavours:
Gomez says that earlier this year, she sat down with some amazing women who were very close in her life.
It was kind of a rough moment. And I just had all of them there, encouraging me, and it was one of those moments that you imagine when you’re a young girl and you go talk to your aunts and your mom and you’re like, This is what’s going on in my life.”
She’d been going at breakneck speed, finishing up her next album, which could come out as early as this fall.
“I had been working for so long, and I don’t like taking things in my life. I just wanted to serve.”
