A consummate multi-hyphenate, Selena Gomez has masterfully transformed from child actress on Barney & Friends into one of entertainment’s most influential figures. Her current endeavors reflect an impressive breadth of creative and entrepreneurial pursuits, most notably her Emmy-nominated performance in Only Murders in the Building, where she stars alongside comedy legends Steve Martin and Martin Short.
Gomez’s business acumen is evident in Rare Beauty’s remarkable success, with the company achieving a $2 billion valuation. Her culinary ventures have proven equally fruitful, with the impossibly adorable Selena + Chef spawning multiple successful iterations, leading to her latest venture, Selena +Restaurant on the Food Network.
As the most popular woman on Instagram with 423 million followers, Gomez maintains a sophisticated balance between her public persona and artistic authenticity. Currently, engaged to acclaimed producer Benny Blanco, she continues to expand her creative horizons while building her business empire. Her Spanish-language performance in Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Pérez further demonstrates her artistic versatility and global appeal.
