Selena Gomez is considering retiring her music career to focus more on acting, the former Disney star revealed to Vogue.
Talking to the fashion mag for a cover story, Gomez shared that critics of her music have got her thinking of taking a backseat in the studio. “It’s hard to keep doing music when people don’t necessarily take you seriously,” she said.
“I think there are a lot of people who enjoy my music, and for that, I’m so thankful, for that I keep going, but I think the next time I do an album it’ll be different,” shared Gomez. “I want to give it one last try before I maybe retire music.”
The 28-year-old then shared that she wants to give acting a real shot. Her post-Disney repertoire includes A Rainy Day in New York and Dolittle among others. She also produced the hit Netflix series 13 Reasons Why.
“I haven’t even touched the surface of what I want to do,” she opened up. “The parts that I want are the ones I need help with. I can’t wait for the moment when a director can see that I’m capable of doing something that no one’s ever seen.”
Gomez currently also runs her own beauty brand, Rare Beauty, and has a number of projects in the pipleine.
