NEW YORK: Actress and singer Selena Gomez has declared her decision to take a break from social media following recent headlines generated by her interactions at the Golden Globes. The announcement comes after a gossip session with bestie Taylor Swift and actor Teller’s wife, Keleigh Sperry, garnered attention.
Gomez found herself in the spotlight over speculations about Kylie Jenner allegedly preventing her beau, Timothee Chalamet, from taking a picture with the Only Murders in the Building star. In response to the rumors, Gomez clarified in a comment under an E! News report, stating, “I told Taylor about two of my friends who hooked up,” adding, “Not that that’s anyone’s business.”

Alongside the post, she expressed her decision to take a break from social media, stating, “I’m off social media for a while. I’m focusing on what really matters.”
This recent social media hiatus echoes Gomez’s previous break towards the end of 2023, during which she cited concerns about the world’s state, expressing sorrow over the violence, hate, and terror prevailing globally. She emphasized the need to stop violence for good and is once again stepping back to prioritize what she deems as essential.
