Selena Gomez: Five Things To Remember, One Thing to Forget


Selena Gomez has five things that she wants people to know about herself. Seriously, you can’t claim you know Selena if you don’t know these five basic things, which Vogue has so graciously curated for all of us. Selena accidentally hit the fence with her car on Wednesday, according to Bang, but she probably wants you to forget about that one. After all, she was okay as she didn’t get hurt at all.

No. 1, she doesn’t pay for a social media consultant to manage her Instagram posts and she loves to read your comments. Yes, this is probably the best-kept secret about Selena Gomez, although not-so-secret now. From the most followed to the most liked Instagram personality, Selena did it all by herself through a mixture of common sense and the simple principle of not overdoing it.

So take it from Selena, don’t sweat writing captions for your pictures if emojis will do. And above all, make sure that you enjoy what you are posting. If you don’t, your followers are probably not going to enjoy them either.

No.2, regardless of what people say about Selena Gomez’ “The Heart Wants What It Wants” music video, don’t believe them. It was totally unscripted. Indeed, Selena went on free verse or call it stream of consciousness for this one. It was her self-styled conversation with herself — and she loved every moment of it. Maybe you should do the same thing, too. That is, have a conversation with yourself from time to time.

No.3, this one is all about Selena’s diet as well as how she keeps healthy. First in her list is ginger, which in her belief, kills everything that’s bad inside. You can chew it like chewing gum. You can even swallow it if you like. Selena swears that the lowly ginger is a life saver. Next, don’t forget to reward yourself with McDonald’s or Coca-Cola stuff when you get your chores done. Finally, water, ginger, carrots, celery and half a beer — are stuff that you should always have around with you.

No.4, either you love Britney Spears like Selena does or you find yourself an idol that you can emulate if you need some serious change in your career. This advice from Selena Gomez will come in handy when the time comes to reinvent yourself. Trust Selena, it’s much, much better than puking at yourself.

No.5, this last one is on a need-to-know basis only. You don’t really have to apply it to yourself, but if you love tattoos or body art, have one, have some more. Selena Gomez has seven thus far. Tattoos “R” Us, is a way to keep us all connected like one endless human chain.

Whether you want to be a Selenator or you just want to get to know Selena Gomez more, the five tips above are the singer and actress’ secrets of success. Use them well. They are being handed down to us for a reason.

Selena Gomez may not be as rich as her celebrity friend, Taylor Swift or her most famous ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber. Still, she is successful in her own way not only monetarily, but in terms of the number of real friends that she has and her loyal following. She says that many fans who have been with her from her Disney days are still with her to this very day.

Selena is the designated Coca-Cola ambassador and a Louis Vuitton signature model. No doubt, she has many other sponsorship deals which continue to extend the power as well as the influence of the Selena Gomez brand.

Someday, Selena says, she will retire from social media when she no longer needs to stay as connected with the rest of the world as much as she is now.

Money Nation puts Selena’s net worth at $46 million. And that’s just money. Her influence on the buying decisions, morale, spirituality, and personal choices of her loyal followers is simply priceless.
