Discovering life’s true calling is a universal pursuit. Yet, there are those rare few who unearth not just one, but multiple passions in which they excel. Selena Gomez stands proudly among these individuals. The songstress has not only conquered the music realm with finesse but has also matured right before the world, from her earliest aspirations of forming a band to her present-day reign as a solo sensation.

Disney played a pivotal role in propelling the career of the ‘Calm Down’ singer. Eventually, this led her to be honored at the Billboard Women in Music event in 2017. However, despite basking in musical triumphs, she feels her true calling lies elsewhere.

Ryan Reynolds is often synonymous with his acting prowess and savvy investments. Similarly, Gomez’s identity stretches beyond just music. Her multifaceted nature sparks curiosity about her true preference, especially considering her close friendship with Taylor Swift who is pacing towards an acting career. Disney launched her career, but acting was her initial breakthrough, undoubtedly holding her deepest passion. The star who has aced Billboard Women in Music resonates with acting as a profound connection to something greater within herself.

The ‘Love Me Like a Love Song’ vocalist experienced a rapid ascent in both her acting and music careers within a mere decade. While she continues to create music that resonates and tops the charts, Gomez’s heart leans towards a return to acting. Her journey began in childhood with a role on Barney and Friends, where she acted alongside Demi Lovato. Her acting and music journey intersected with Wizards of Waverly Place, where she voiced the theme song. Gomez later shifted gears to produce, notably with Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why.
