Oh, 2024 is officially Selena Gomez’s year—The former Disney darling isn’t just hitting high notes —she is making waves in both TV and movies. Gomez started her career and earned her place in the spotlight at just 10 years old, appearing on ‘Barney & Friends’ as Gianna in 2002. Since then, she’s had her share of ups and downs, but the 32-year-old has always proven her talent in many ways. From chart-topping pop songs to well-known acting roles, Selena has proven time and again that she’s a true multi-talented dynamo.
Her songs like Good For You and Lose You To Love Me are favourites among many across the globe. No doubt, the pop singer’s special connection with her fans has made her a beloved star in the music world. Seems like she’s got a playlist for every mood—and every fan.
Selena Gomez is Finally an Emmy Nominee
However, there is a ‘but.’ Selena isn’t just about music, she has made a big impact as an actress, too.

Her latest achievement, however, is the one that has everyone talking. She is now the most Emmy-nominated Latina producer ever in the ‘Best Comedy Series’ category.

This multi-talented superstar juggles music, acting, and her beauty brand, Rare Beauty, but it looks like she’s considering slowing down her music career.
On the latest episode of the SmartLess podcast, she spilled the beans: while she’s got one more album in her, her heart is really set on acting. She admitted she’s feeling worn out and could use a little R&R.
“I wanted to be an actress,” she said. “I never really intended on being a singer full time, but apparently that hobby turned into something else.” Looks like she is ready to swap the mic for a script—at least for a while. Acting is where her heart truly lies. Tune in here.
