1992–2006: Early life and career beginnings
Selena Marie Gomez was born in Grand Prairie, Texas, on July 22, 1992,[4] to Ricardo
Joel Gomez[5] and Texas-born[5] former stage actress Amanda Dawn "Mandy" Cornett. [6][7]
[better  source  needed]
 Gomez was named after Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla, who died in 1995.[8]
[9]
 Her father is of Mexican descent while her mother, who was adopted, has some Italian
ancestry.[10][11][12] Regarding her Hispanic heritage, Gomez has stated that she is "a proud
third-generation American-Mexican"[13] and that, "My family does have Quinceañeras,
and we go to the communion church. We do everything that's Catholic, but we don't
really have anything traditional except [that we] go to the park and have barbecues on
Sundays after church."[14] Gomez's parents divorced when she was five years old, and
she remained with her mother.[6][15] Selena has two younger half-sisters: Gracie Elliot
Teefey, through Amanda and her second husband Brian Teefey, [16][17] and Victoria "Tori"
Gomez, through Ricardo and his wife Sara.[18] She earned her high-school diploma
through homeschooling in May 2010. [19]
When Gomez was born, her mother was sixteen years old. [20] The family had financial
troubles during Gomez's childhood, with her mother struggling to provide for the pair.
[21]
 At one point, Gomez recalled, they had to search for quarters just to get gas for their
car.[21] Her mother later recalled that the two would frequently walk to their local dollar
store to purchase spaghetti for dinner.[21] Gomez stated, "I was frustrated that my parents
weren't together, and never saw the light at the end of the tunnel where my mom was
working hard to provide a better life for me. I'm terrified of what I would have become if
I'd stayed [in Texas]."[22] She later added that "[My mom] was really strong around me.
Having me at 16 had to have been a big responsibility. She gave up everything for me,
had three jobs, supported me, sacrificed her life for me." [23] Gomez had a close
relationship with her grandparents as a child, and appeared in various pageants
growing up.[23] Her grandparents often took care of her while her parents finished their
schooling, and the pair went as far as stating that they "raised her" up until she found
success in the entertainment industry.[23]
Gomez first gained an interest in pursuing a career in the entertainment industry
watching her mother prepare for stage productions. [24] She began auditioning for various
roles, meeting Demi Lovato during an audition for Barney & Friends.[25][26] Both Gomez
and Lovato were later selected to appear on the series in 2002, [27][28] with Gomez
portraying the character of Gianna.[29] The show was her first experience in acting, with
Gomez recalling, "I was very shy when I was little [...] I didn't know what 'camera right'
was. I didn't know what blocking was. I learned everything from Barney."[30] Gomez
appeared in thirteen episodes of the show between 2002 and 2004, though the show's
producers released her as she was getting "too old" for the series. [31] While working on
the series, Gomez had a cameo role in the film Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003) and
the made-for-television film Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire (2005).[32] Gomez made
a guest appearance in a 2006 episode of the Disney series The Suite Life of Zack &
Cody.[33]
2007–2012: Breakthrough with Disney and Selena Gomez & the
Scene
Gomez was given a recurring role on the Disney Channel hit series Hannah Montana in
2007, playing pop star Mikayla.[34] During this time, Gomez filmed pilot episodes for two
potential Disney Channel series; the first, titled Arwin!,[35] a spin-off of the Suite
Life series, while the second titled Stevie Sanchez was a spin-off of the series Lizzie
McGuire.[36] She later auditioned for a role in the Disney series Wizards of Waverly
Place, ultimately winning the lead role of Alex Russo.[31] Upon receiving the role, Gomez
and her mother moved to Los Angeles; Lovato and her family also moved to Los
Angeles, hoping to achieve similar success to Gomez. [37] Wizards of Waverly Place saw
Gomez playing a teenage girl in a family of wizards who own a restaurant in New York
City.[38] The series quickly became a hit for the network, propelling Gomez to more
mainstream success.[39] The series received numerous nominations and awards. [40]
  Gomez recorded the theme song for the series, titled "Everything is Not What It
[41]

Seems".[42] Gomez later appeared in the music video for the song "Burnin' Up", which
the Jonas Brothers had recorded and released.[43]

Gomez at the 2009 Hollywood Style Awards in Beverly Hills

While working on the second season of Wizards of Waverly Place, Gomez appeared on
the Disney Channel special Studio DC: Almost Live alongside various other Disney
stars.[44] She contributed a cover of the song "Cruella de Vil" to the compilation
album DisneyMania 6,[45] and later recorded the original song "Fly to Your Heart" for the
soundtrack of the animated film Tinker Bell.[46] She had a leading role as an aspiring
dancer Mary Santiago in the direct-to-video film Another Cinderella Story, a sequel to A
Cinderella Story, starring Hilary Duff and Chad Michael Murray and the second
installment of A Cinderella Story series. Gomez recorded three songs for the
soundtrack, and released one of them, "Tell Me Something I Don't Know", as a
promotional single.[47] Later that year, Gomez voiced Helga in the animated film Horton
Hears a Who![48] The film was a commercial success, and went on to gross nearly
$300 million worldwide.[49]
At age 16, Gomez signed a recording contract with the Hollywood Records label, which
had already signed both Cyrus and Lovato. [50][51] Gomez formed her own production
company in 2008, which she called July Moon Productions. [52] She partnered with XYZ
Films for the project, giving Gomez the opportunity to option articles, hire writers and
create talent packages to shop to studios.[52][53] Gomez was slated to release two films
under the company. The first, titled What Boys Want, featured Gomez as a girl who
could hear the thoughts of men.[54] She later announced a film adaptation of the
novel Thirteen Reasons Why, in which she was to play a young girl who commits
suicide; ultimately, neither film was made, [55] though Gomez would later executive
produce a television adaptation of Thirteen Reasons Why.[56]
Gomez continued to have mainstream success throughout the following year, appearing
as Alex Russo in a crossover episode of the Disney series The Suite Life on Deck.
[57]
 She later made a guest appearance on the Disney series Sonny with a Chance,
starring Lovato.[58] She appeared in a remix of the Forever the Sickest Kids's single
"Whoa Oh! (Me vs. Everyone)", released as a single in April of that year.[59] Gomez,
along with Lovato, starred in the Disney Channel film Princess Protection Program,
which aired in June 2009. The film was a critical success, [60] and had a total of 8.5 million
viewers during its premiere.[61] For the film, Gomez and Lovato recorded the song "One
and the Same", which was later released as a promotional single. [62] She later provided
the voice of Princess Selenia in the animated film Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard.
[63]
 On August 28, 2009, Gomez starred in Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie, a
television film based on the series.[64] The film premiered to an audience of 11.4 million
viewers becoming cable's No. 1 scripted telecast of 2009 and Disney Channel's second
most-viewed film premiere after High School Musical 2.[65] The film won the series its
second consecutive Emmy for "Outstanding Children's Program" at the 62nd Primetime
Emmy Awards.[66]

Gomez performing in 2011

Hoping to achieve a successful crossover into music, Gomez formed the pop-rock
band Selena Gomez & the Scene through her record deal with Hollywood Records.
[67]
 The name of the band is an "ironic jab" at the people who called Gomez a
"wannabe scene".[68] The group released their debut studio album in August 2009,[69][70][71]
[72]
 which debuted at number nine on the Billboard 200 albums chart in the United States,
with first-week sales of 66,000 copies.[73] The album received a mixed reception, some
critics praised the album for its "fun" nature, while others criticized Gomez's vocal
performance.[71][74][75] The lead single failed to have commercial success, [76] however the
second single was successful.[77] With heavy promotion through Disney and
performances, the song had success on radio and with sales. [78] In 2010, Gomez starred
as one of the two female leads in Ramona and Beezus, a film adaption of the children's
novel series by Beverly Cleary.[79][80][81] The film premiered on July 23, 2010, and it was
met with generally positive reviews.[82] Selena Gomez & the Scene released their second
studio album A Year Without Rain that same year,[83][84] which debuted on the
US Billboard 200 at number 4 with sales of a little over 66,000.[84] The album received
mixed to positive reviews where some noticed that Gomez's vocals contained the Auto-
Tune effect.[85] The record's two singles both achieved moderate success. [86][87] Having
previously announced plans to launch a fashion line, Gomez launched Dream Out Loud
in 2010.[88][89] The collection consisted of, and featured, bohemian dresses, floral tops,
jeans, skirts, jackets, scarves and hats, all of which were made from recycled or eco-
friendly materials.[90][91] Gomez stated, "With my line, I really want to give the customer
options on how they can put their own looks together [...] I want the pieces that can be
easy to dress up or down, and the fabrics being eco-friendly and organic is super
important [...] Also, the tags will all have some of my inspirational quotes on them. I'm
just looking to send a good message."[88][91] To design the actual items, Gomez teamed up
with designers Tony Melillo and Sandra Campos, both of whom had previously worked
with big-name fashion houses.[89] Melillo and Campos teamed with New York-based
Adjmi Apparel to manufacture the brand, which was formed by Adjmi CH Brands LLC,
the holding company for the brand.[92]
In 2011, Gomez starred in the film Monte Carlo. Her character Grace is a teenager
"mistaken for a socialite while on a trip to Paris".[93] To prepare for the role, Gomez
learned how to play polo and also took two weeks of vocal training to learn two different
British accents.[94][95] She also began a relationship with Justin Bieber that year, which
lasted until 2014.[96] Before breaking up, they recorded an unreleased duet titled "Can't
Steal Our Love".[97] Gomez appeared in a cameo role in the film The Muppets[98] and
appeared in the Disney shows So Random! and PrankStars.[99] Selena Gomez & the
Scene released their third and final studio album that same year. [100] The album received
mixed reviews,[100] with the album's second single receiving a 4x Platinum certification
from the RIAA.[101] However, the album's lead single and last single both achieved
moderate success.[102][103] It was announced on July 14, 2011, that Gomez had signed a
license agreement with Adrenalina, an extreme sports and adventure-themed lifestyle
brand, to develop, manufacture, and distribute the actress's fragrance. Chairman and
C.E.O. of Adrenalina, Ilia Lekach, said, "We are incredibly enthused to be working with
Ms. Gomez and will reveal more details pertaining to the fragrance as we get closer to
the launch date."[104] The perfume was released in May 2012. [105]
2012–2015: Stars Dance and films
Gomez confirmed in January 2012 that she would be taking a break from her music
career, thus placing Selena Gomez & the Scene on a hiatus. [106] That year, Wizards of
Waverly Place officially ended its run on the Disney Channel after four seasons. [107]
[108]
 Gomez hoped to focus on her film career outside Disney and starred in the animated
film Hotel Transylvania (2012).[109] The film premiered at the 37th annual Toronto
International Film Festival and was released on September 28, 2012.[109] Gomez had a
role in the controversial exploitation film Spring Breakers (2013), starring James Franco.
[110]
 The film saw Gomez in a more mature role than her previous works, and reportedly
led to Gomez having a "bit of a meltdown on set". [15] In 2013, Gomez starred in the
film Getaway.[111] The film was a critical and commercial failure,[112] and earned Gomez a
nomination for Worst Actress at the 34th Golden Raspberry Awards.[113]
Gomez performing on her Stars Dance Tour in 2013

Despite her earlier claims that she would be taking a break from her music career,
Gomez confirmed in October 2012 that she was working on new material. [114][115] She later
confirmed that she would be releasing her solo debut album, as opposed to another
album with her band.[116] Gomez released "Come & Get It" as the lead single from the
album.[117] The single became Gomez's first top ten entry on the Billboard Hot 100.
[118]
 Another single from the album, "Slow Down", peaked at number 27 in
the Billboard charts.[119] Stars Dance was released on July 23, 2013. It became her first
album to debut at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, where it sold 97,000
copies in its first week.[120][121] The album remained in the top ten in its second week,
though declined down the chart in the following weeks. [122][123][124] The record was met with
mixed reviews where some music critics noticed her inability to create her own musical
identity and her lack of vocal ability "doesn't help". [125][126][127] Gomez incorporated
choreography and dance routines into her promotional performances and music videos
for the album, feeling inspired by artists such as Janet Jackson and Britney Spears.
[128]
 As of September 2015, the album has sold 392,000 copies in the United States,
making it her lowest selling studio album to date in the country. [129] It remains her only
studio effort to not receive a certification from the Recording Industry Association of
America (RIAA).[130]
Gomez embarked on her Stars Dance Tour on August 14, 2013.[131] After touring in North
America and Europe, the tour was set to continue throughout 2014, though Gomez
cancelled the Australian and Asian leg of the tour in December 2013, claiming that she
would be taking a hiatus to spend time with her family. [132] In January 2014, it was
reported that Gomez had spent two weeks at Dawn at The Meadows, which is a
treatment center in Wickenburg, Arizona that specializes in treating addiction and
trauma in young people.[133][134] Her representative stated that she had spent time there
"voluntarily [...] but not for substance abuse". [135][136] Gomez confirmed in 2015 that she
had been diagnosed with lupus and that she had cancelled the tour and entered rehab
to undergo chemotherapy.[137][138] Gomez appeared in the film Behaving Badly (2014)
with Dylan McDermott and Nat Wolff.[139] The project, filmed prior to Gomez's stint in
rehab, was released in August 2014 to a generally negative critical and commercial
reception.[140][141][142][143] Even the author of the original autobiographical novel, has
disavowed the film.[144] She later appeared in the film Rudderless (2014), the directorial
debut of William H. Macy.[145][146][147] The independent film received a mixed reception from
critics.[148][149]

Gomez performing in December 2013

In April of that year, it was reported that Gomez had fired her mother and stepfather as
her managers; the two had managed Gomez since her career began. [150] Gomez later
signed with the WME and Brillstein companies to manage her career. [151][152] The news of
Gomez's new management also fueled rumors that her recording contract with
Hollywood Records was ending, and that Gomez was searching for a new label. [153]
[154]
 Gomez surprise released her new single "The Heart Wants What It Wants" (2014) on
November 6, and confirmed after months of speculation that she would be releasing a
compilation album as a means of finishing out her contract with Hollywood Records.
[154]
 The single went on to become her second top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart,
and sold over one million copies in the United States. [155] Gomez released her first solo
compilation album, For You (2014), on November 24.[156] The album received minimal
promotion and failed to achieve much commercial success, selling 35,506 equivalent
album units in the United States during its first week of release, and entered
the Billboard 200 at number twenty-four.[157] Gomez officially signed a recording contract
with Interscope Records in December 2014.[158]

Gomez promoting Pantene in 2015

While working on her second studio album, Gomez collaborated with Zedd for his single
"I Want You to Know", released as the lead single from his second album on February
23, 2015.[159] The single became Gomez's fourth top twenty entry on the Billboard Hot
100, and received a platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of
America (RIAA).[155] Gomez became the face of haircare brand Pantene in 2015.[160]
2015–2016: Revival and personal struggles
Selena Gomez released "Good for You" as the lead single from her second studio
album on June 22, 2015; the single features rapper ASAP Rocky.[161] The song sold
179,000 copies in its first week of release alone, and went on to become her first top
five single on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.[162] The single became her first
to top the Mainstream Top 40 chart.[163][164] In August 2015, Gomez appeared in the
documentary Unity among many other actors and actresses.[165] She reprised the role of
Mavis in Hotel Transylvania 2, which was released on September 25; the film was met
with a positive critical reception and commercial success upon its release. [166]
Gomez released her second studio album, Revival, on October 9, 2015.[167] The album
was positively reviewed by critics, who praised its production and lyrical content. [168][169]
[170]
 The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, with first-week sales of
117,000 equivalent album units.[171] This remains Gomez's highest first week sales to
date.[171] "Same Old Love" was released as the album's second single, and went on to
top the Mainstream Top 40 chart.[172][173] The single peaked at number five on
the Billboard Hot 100, tying with "Good for You" as Gomez's highest-charting single to
that point.[174] "Hands to Myself" was the album's third single, which became her third
consecutive number one on the Mainstream Top 40 chart. [175] This made Gomez one of
only six female artists to have three singles from the same album top the chart.
[176]
 Gomez had a cameo role in the film The Big Short, which was released on December
11 by Paramount Pictures.[177] She was the musical guest on the January 23, 2016

Gomez embarked on her worldwide Revival Tour (2016) on May 6.[179] Gomez claimed

that the tour would focus solely on her as an artist and would feature less choreography
and fewer effects than her previous tour.[179] After touring in North America, Asia and
Oceania, she cancelled the European and South America leg of the tour in August 2016

Artistry
Sound
Gomez has been described as a pop artist.[239][240][241] She possesses a mezzo-
soprano vocal range, which spans three octaves; her songs are influenced by dance-
pop[240][242] and EDM.[240][243] As her career has been progressing, she has been
experimenting with a large number of music genres. While her debut album with the
Scene was inspired by electronic rock and pop rock,[244][245] her subsequent records with
the band opted for a dance-pop[246][247] sound. A Year Without Rain noted synth-
pop characteristics[248] and When the Sun Goes Down went into a
more electropop[249] and electro-disco-influenced musical direction.[250] Her debut solo
record Stars Dance was rooted in the EDM-pop[251][252] genre, and Gomez herself
described it as "baby dubstep",[253] featuring elements from multiple genres
as electronic, disco, techno or dancehall.[254][255] Her songs "The Heart Wants What It
Wants" and "Good for You" have been described as "minimalistic" and "grown-up",
[256]
 transitioning her sound into adult pop.[257]
Influences
Early in her music career, Gomez cited Bruno Mars as an influence, for "his style of
music, his style in general, the way he performs, the way he carries himself". [258] Gomez
also cited Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Taylor Swift as
influences.[259][260][261][262][263][264] Gomez's debut solo album Stars Dance (2013) was prominently
influenced by Spears, Swift, and EDM producer Skrillex.[265] Her second
album, Revival (2015), was mainly inspired by Christina Aguilera's
album Stripped (2002) as well as Janet Jackson and Britney Spears.[261][266]

Endorsements
In 2009, Gomez was part of Sears's back-to-school fashion campaign and was featured

Philanthropy
UNICEF
In October 2008, Gomez participated in St. Jude's Children's Hospital "Runway For Life"
benefit.[283] That same month, Gomez was named UNICEF's spokesperson for the Trick-
or-Treat for UNICEF campaign, which encouraged children to raise money on
Halloween to help children around the world. [284] She said that she was "extremely
excited" to "encourage other kids to make a difference in the world". [284] In August 2009,
a 17-year-old Gomez became the youngest UNICEF ambassador at the time,
surpassing Hayley Westenra, who was 18 when she was chosen. Actress Millie Bobby
Brown later became the youngest UNICEF ambassador at 14 years old. [285] In her first
official field mission, Gomez traveled to Ghana on September 4, 2009 for a week to
witness first-hand the stark conditions of vulnerable children that lack vital necessities
including clean water, nourishment, education and healthcare. [286][287] Gomez explained,
during an interview with Associated Press correspondents, that she wanted to use her
star power to bring awareness to Ghana: "That's why I feel very honored to have a
voice that kids listen to and take into consideration [...] I had people on my tour asking
me where IS Ghana, and they Googled it [...] and because I went there, they now know
where Ghana is. So it's pretty incredible." [287][288] Gomez said, of her role as ambassador,
that "Every day 25,000 children die from preventable causes. I stand with UNICEF in
the belief that we can change that number from 25,000 to zero. I know we can achieve
this because every moment, UNICEF is on the ground providing children with the
lifesaving assistance needed to ensure zero becomes a reality." [286]

campaign.[293] In February 2011, Gomez traveled to Chile to witness and meet with the
families of UNICEF's supported program, "Programa Puente", which helped families
better understand, and developed skills to deal effectively with, early childhood
education, development, and other issues related to raising children. From her field trip
experience, Gomez said, "UNICEF is helping Chilean families get out of poverty,
prevent violence within the home and promote education. To witness first hand these
families' struggles, and also their hope and perseverance, was truly inspiring." [294] In
March 2011, Gomez participated in the UNICEF Tap Project's "Celebrity Tap Pack"
limited-edition, custom-made water bottles which featured tap water from the homes of
each celebrity advocate, in order to raise funds and increase profile for the clean water

campaign.[296][297]
Other charity work
Gomez was involved in the UR Votes Count campaign which encouraged teenagers to
learn more about 2008 presidential candidates Barack Obama and John McCain.[298]

Personal life
Religious beliefs
Gomez was raised as a Catholic. At age 13, she wanted a purity ring, and her father
went to the church and got it blessed. She stated, "He actually used me as an example
for other kids. I'm going to keep my promise to myself, to my family and to God." Gomez
stopped wearing the ring in 2010.[310] She later stated in 2017 that she did not like the
term "religion" and that sometimes it "freaks me out", adding "I don't know if it's
necessarily that I believe in religion, as much as I believe in faith and a relationship with
God."[311] In 2014, Gomez said that she listened to "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)"
by Hillsong United before performing at the 2014 American Music Awards.[312] In 2016,
she appeared at a Hillsong Young & Free concert in Los Angeles, leading worship by
singing her song titled "Nobody".[313][314][315] When a fan asked her who the lyrics in
"Nobody" referred to, Gomez answered on Twitter that the lyrics referred to God.[316] She
also covered Hillsong Worship's song "Transfiguration" during her Revival Tour. [317] As of
2020, she attends a different congregation in California, the Hillsong Church,[318][319] and
has stated that she does not consider herself religious, but is more concerned with her
faith and connection to God.[320]
Health
Gomez was diagnosed with lupus sometime between 2012 and early 2014. On

events during the previous few months because she had received a kidney
transplant from actress and friend Francia Raisa.[321][322][323] During the transplant, Gomez
broke an artery. An emergency surgery was conducted to build a new artery using
a vein from her leg.[324][325][326]
On April 3, 2020, Gomez revealed that she had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.[327]
[328]

in November 2012, they reconciled a few weeks later before splitting up again in
January 2013.[330][331][332][333][334] They later reconciled for a few months in each of 2013, 2014,
