Songstress and actress Selena Gomez has decided to take a hiatus from social media, revealing her intention to focus on more meaningful aspects of life. In an Instagram Story, she shared a heartwarming video featuring her record producer boyfriend, Benny Blanco, engaging in a playful moment with two young children.
"I'm off social media for a while," Gomez announced, emphasizing her periodic breaks from online platforms. This decision follows her previous October announcement when she expressed the need to step back from social media due to the distressing realities of the world, including horror, hate, violence, and terror.
Addressing the ongoing issues globally, Gomez stated, "People being tortured and killed or any act of hate towards any one group is horrific." She underscored the importance of protecting all individuals, especially children, and advocated for putting an end to violence.
Acknowledging that her words might not be sufficient for everyone, Gomez emphasized her inability to stand idly by while innocent people suffer. She stressed that her desire for change goes beyond a mere post or hashtag.
This recent break from social media follows a snapshot shared by Gomez featuring a romantic kiss with Benny Blanco at the 2024 Golden Globes. The image captured a sweet moment as they embraced, with Gomez donned in a striking red and black Giorgio Armani dress and black jacket, captioned with, "I won." It seems Gomez is prioritizing real-life connections and meaningful moments over the virtual realm during this break.
