Selena Marie Gomez was born on July 22, 1992, in
Grand Prairie, Texas,[2] to Ricardo Joel Gomez and Texas-born[3] former stage actress Mandy Teefey.[4] She was named after
Tejano singer
Selena Quintanilla, who died in 1995.[5][6] Her father is of Mexican descent, while her mother, who was adopted, has Italian ancestry.[7][8][9] Gomez's paternal grandparents emigrated to Texas from
Monterrey in the 1970s.[10] Of her heritage, Gomez has said she is "a proud third-generation American-Mexican"[11] and "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 go to the park and have barbecues on Sundays after church."[12] Gomez's Spanish fluency waned after age seven, when she began working in television.[10] Her parents divorced when she was five years old, and she remained with her mother.[4][13] Gomez has two younger half-sisters and a younger stepbrother: Gracie Elliot Teefey, through Mandy and her second husband, Brian Teefey,[14][15] and Victoria "Tori" and Marcus Gomez, through Ricardo and his second wife, Sara.[16] She earned her high-school diploma through homeschooling in May 2010.[17]
Gomez was born when her mother was 16 years old.[18] The family had financial troubles throughout Gomez's childhood, her mother struggling to provide for the pair. At one point, Gomez recalls that they had to search for quarters just to get gas for their car. Her mother later recalled that the two would frequently walk to their local dollar store to buy spaghetti for dinner.[19] Gomez has said, "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]."[20] She later added that her mother "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." Gomez had a close relationship with her grandparents as a child and appeared in various pageants. Her grandparents often took care of her while her parents finished their schooling, and she has said they "raised her" until she found success in show business.[21]
Career
2002–2006: Career beginnings
Gomez first gained an interest in pursuing a career in entertainment watching her mother prepare for stage productions.[22] In 2002, she began her acting career on the children's television series Barney & Friends,[23][24] portraying the character Gianna.[25] The show was her first acting gig. Gomez recalled of the experience, "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."[26] Gomez appeared in thirteen episodes of the show between 2002 and 2004; the show's producers released her as she was "too old" for the series.[26] While working on Barney & Friends, Gomez had
bit part roles in the film Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003) and the made-for-television film Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire (2005).[27][28] She guest starred in a 2006 episode of the
Disney Channel series The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.[29][28]
2007–2012: Breakthrough with Disney and Selena Gomez & the Scene
Gomez was given a recurring role on the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana in 2007 as pop star Mikayla.[26] During this time, Gomez filmed pilot episodes for two potential Disney Channel series; the first was a Suite Life spin-off titled Arwin!,[30] and the second was a Lizzie McGuire spin-off titled What's Stevie Thinking?.[31][32] She later auditioned for a role in the network's series Wizards of Waverly Place, ultimately winning the lead role of
Alex Russo.[26] Gomez and her mother subsequently moved to
Los Angeles.[24]Wizards of Waverly Place saw Gomez playing a teenage girl in a family of
wizards who own a restaurant in
New York City.[33] It quickly became a success for the Disney Channel and represented Gomez's breakthrough into the mainstream.[34] The role brought Gomez "
teen idol" status.[35][36] And she also became one of the ten highest-paid children's TV stars of all time, earning from
US$25,000-30,000 per episode.[37][38] The series received numerous awards and nominations,[39][40] and won the
Outstanding Children's Program at the
61st Primetime Emmy Awards.[41] It garnered positive reviews,[42][43] with Gomez's being particularly praised for her comic timing and sarcastic delivery.[42][44][45]
In 2008, while working on the
second season of her series, Gomez voiced Helga along with
Jim Carrey,
Steve Carell and
others in the animated film Horton Hears a Who!.[46] The film became a commercial and critical success,[47] grossing over
US$300 million worldwide.[48] In September of the same year, the teen musical comedy film Another Cinderella Story was released, where Gomez played the main role of an aspiring dancer Mary Santiago, the film became the second installment of the
A Cinderella Story series, released on direct-to-video.[49] Gomez recorded three songs for the
soundtrack album, including the single "
Tell Me Something I Don't Know"-which became Gomez's first entry on the U.S.
Billboard Hot 100,[50] and the premiere of the music video was on
MTV's Total Request Live.[51] This role earned Gomez a
Young Artist Award.[52] She also recorded the original song "Fly to Your Heart" for the
soundtrack album of the animated film Tinker Bell (2008).[53] In 2008, at age 16, Gomez signed with
Hollywood Records,[54][55] and formed her own production company, July Moon Production.[56] She partnered with
XYZ Films for the project, allowing Gomez to option articles, hire writers and create talent packages to shop to studios.[56][57] Gomez was slated to release two films under the company. The first, titled What Boys Want, would feature Gomez as a girl who could hear the thoughts of men.[58] 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,[59] but later, Gomez will produce a
television adaptation of this novel.[60]
Gomez continued to enjoy mainstream success throughout the following year, appearing as Alex Russo in a crossover episode of the Disney Channel series The Suite Life on Deck in 2009.[61] She also guest starred as herself on the Disney Channel series Sonny with a Chance.[62] Gomez, along with

David Henrie and
Jake T. Austin—for their "acting skills that carry the film".[69] The film won the series its second consecutive Emmy for
Outstanding Children's Program at the
62nd Primetime Emmy Awards.[70] Gomez recorded three songs on the television series and film's
soundtrack, including the single "
Magic",[71][72] which reached number sixty-one in the U.S.[50] She then voiced Princess Selenia in the English-language French animated/live-action film Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard (2009).[73]
Hoping to cross over into the music industry, Gomez formed the
pop rock band
Selena Gomez & the Scene through her record deal with Hollywood Records.[74] The name of the band is an "ironic jab" at the people who called Gomez a "wannabe
scene".[75] The band's debut studio album, Kiss & Tell, influenced by pop rock and
electronic rock was released in September 2009.[76][77] The album received mixed reviews from critics,[77]BBC News described the album as "[...] fast and full of energy [...]",[78] and Mikael Wood from Billboard wrote: "[...] her music could use more of her in it".[76]Kiss & Tell debuted at number nine on the U.S.
Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 66,000
album-equivalent units,[79] and spent a non-consecutive 59 weeks there.[80] Although its lead single was not commercially and critically successful,[50] the second single, "
Naturally", became a breakthrough and the first highly successful single in Gomez's career, reaching number twenty-nine in the U.S.,[50] and top-ten in many
European countries,[81] including number seven in the
U.K..[82] In a 2021
Grammy interview, Gomez credited the
LGBT community for kickstarting her music career and supporting her before anyone else, stating "I remember when it was released, it truly started getting played in
gay bars before anywhere else", and expressed her gratitude for the community. "I hope they hear in my music the importance of self-love and the strength that comes through vulnerability"-Gomez said, adding that she has always truly loved and supported gays since childhood.[83] All studio albums and singles of the band were certified
gold or higher by the
RIAA.[84] In July 2010, Gomez starred alongside
Joey King in Ramona and Beezus, a film adaptation of
the children's novel series by
Beverly Cleary, in which she portrayed
Beezus Quimby.[85][86] The film was well received by critics;[87]Roger Ebert described it as "a sweet salute", and found both actresses "appealing".[88] Gomez later reprised the voice role of Princess Selenia in Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds (2010).[89] The band's second studio album, A Year Without Rain, inspired by
dance-pop and
synth-pop, was released in September 2010.[90] Basically, the album was not poorly appreciated by critics,[91] many of whom called it the effort was an improvement over 2009's Kiss & Tell.[92] The album debuted at number four on the U.S., with first-week sales of over 66,000 album-equivalent units,[90] and also debuted at number six in Canada.[93] Both of the record's singles, "
Round & Round" and "
A Year Without Rain", achieved moderate success.[50] The band was awarded
Favorite Breakout Artist at the
37th People's Choice Awards.[94]
Selena Gomez & the Scene released their third and final, as well as most successful studio album, When the Sun Goes Down, in June 2011.[95] The album received mixed reviews from critics,[95] who praised the album's production and described it as "[...] is a very professional affair",[96] the album also was co-written by
Britney Spears and
Katy Perry.[96] It debuted at number four on the U.S. with first-week sales of 78,000 album-equivalent units, reaching number three the following week,[97] as well as reaching number two in Canada and
Spain.[98] Its lead single, "
Who Says", was the band's highest charting effort, peaking at number twenty-one in the U.S.[50] Its second single, "
Love You like a Love Song", although it did not reach great heights in the charts, reaching only number twenty-two in the U.S. and spending 38 consecutive weeks there,[50] as well as reaching the top-ten in
Canada,[99] and topping the chart in
Russia,[100] but became a worldwide hit and one of the most successful, best-selling and popular songs in Gomez's career.[101] Alex Frank from
Pitchfork called the song "a cult karaoke classic".[102] In 2022, Billboard ranked the song as the biggest song that peaked at number twenty-two of all time.[103] For two years in a row (2010–2011), Billboard magazine ranked Gomez third in their list of
21 Under 21: Music's Hottest Minors, an annual ranking of the most popular musicians under the age of 21.[104][105]
Gomez starred in the comedy film Monte Carlo (2011), with
Leighton Meester and
Katie Cassidy;[106][107] she played the lead role of Grace, a teenager "mistaken for a socialite", Cordelia (also Gomez), "while on a trip to Paris".[106][107] In preparation for the role, she learned to play
polo and received dialect coaching to speak in two different British accents;[108][109] Gomez's accent was described as "unconvincing".[110] The film received mixed reviews from critic.[111] Nick Schager from Slant Magazine found Gomez "cute, but too bland to lend the proceedings any vivid character, except for the few scenes that allow her to indulge her cold, sarcastic, nasty side as Cordelia".[112] That year, Gomez appeared in a cameo role in the film The Muppets.[113] Gomez hosted in June the
MuchMusic Video Awards in
Toronto, Canada, and in November the
MTV Europe Music Awards in
Belfast, Northern Ireland.[114][115]
2012–2014: Stars Dance and films
Gomez confirmed in January 2012 that she would be taking a break from music, placing Selena Gomez & the Scene on hiatus.[116] That year, Wizards of Waverly Place officially ended its run on the
Disney Channel after four seasons.[117][118] For five years in a row (
2009-
2013), Gomez won the
Kids' Choice Award for Favorite TV Actress. She currently holds the record for the most
Kids' Choice Awards wins (12) for an individual.[119][120] In 2012, Gomez starred in the controversial
comedy-
crime film from director
Harmony KorineSpring Breakers together with
James Franco,
Vanessa Hudgens,
Ashley Benson and
Rachel Korine.[121] The film premiered at the
69th Venice International Film Festival,[122] and was released the following year.[123] The story followed four college-aged girls who decide to rob a fast food restaurant in order to pay for their
spring break.[124] It saw Gomez playing a more mature character than she did previously and reportedly led to her having a "bit of a meltdown on set".[13]Spring Breakers received positive reviews from critics,[125] some called it a potential
cult classic.[126] The film entered many prestigious ratings,[127] including the
BBC's 100 Greatest Films of the 21st Century and Rolling Stone's The 50 Best Movies of the 2010s and many others.[128] Many critics and tabloids were shocked to see the "teen idol" Miss Gomez in such a provocative film, in particular
Manohla Dargis from The New York Times wrote: it is not surprising that Miss Gomez quit Disney. "In "Spring Breakers" [she] have the chance to simulate the behavior that feeds the tabloids without the humiliations and career-crushing price paid [...]".[129]
Despite earlier claims that she would be taking a break from music, Gomez announced in March 2013 the release of her solo debut album.[117] In April 2013, Gomez released "
Come & Get It" as the lead single for her
upcoming album.[140] This song became Gomez's first top-ten entry on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, reaching number six,[141] and also reached the top-ten on the charts in
Canada and the
U.K.[142] The album's second single, "
Slow Down", peaked at number twenty-seven in the U.S.[50] Gomez released her debut solo studio album, Stars Dance, in July 2013.[143] The style of the record was rooted musically on
EDM and
electropop.[144] It received mixed reviews from music critics.[145] Writing for Los Angeles Times, August Brown found that the album was "the kind of album one makes in 2013 if you want to keep the pop sugar of the Disney tween cabal but mix in some broken glass and a club bathroom nosebleed. Its productions are rooted in today's pop-EDM default mode [...]".[144] Andrew Hampp of Billboard wrote: "[...] is a collection of 11 shinily produced pop songs that find Gomez trying on a series of different personalities with her slight-yet-capable vocals [...]".[145]Stars Dance became her first album to debut at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 97,000
album-equivalent units.[97] At that time, Gomez, who turned 21, became the youngest solo artist to take first place since Speak Now from
Taylor Swift in 2010.[97] The album also reached number one in Canada.[93] Gomez incorporated choreographed dance routines into the album's music videos and her promotional
live performances, having been inspired by artists such as
Janet Jackson and
Britney Spears.[146][147] The music video of "Come & Get It" won the
Best Pop Video at the
2013 MTV Video Music Awards.[148]
In August 2013, Gomez embarked on her first solo worldwide concert tour,
Stars Dance Tour, to further promote Stars Dance, with shows in
North America,
Europe,
Australia and
Asia.[149] In December 2013, Gomez canceled the Australian and Asian legs of the tour, claiming that she would be taking a hiatus to spend time with her family.[150] 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.[151] Her representative stated that she had spent time there "voluntarily [...] but not for substance abuse".[152][153] Gomez confirmed in 2015 that she had been diagnosed with
lupus and that after canceling the tour she entered rehab to undergo
chemotherapy.[154][155] Gomez played Nina Pennington, an innocent straight-A student, in Behaving Badly (2014).[156][157] The project, filmed prior to Gomez's stint in rehab, was released in August to a generally negative critical and commercial reception.[158][159] However, critics deemed Gomez's performance superior to the film.[160][161] Gomez also had a supporting role in the drama Rudderless (2014), the directorial debut of
William H. Macy.[162][163] The independent film premiered at the
2014 Sundance Film Festival,[162] and received a mixed reception from critics.[164][165] At the
2014 Teen Choice Awards, Gomez was honored with the
Ultimate Choice Award for her "contributions to the entertainment world".[166] Currently, with 18 wins, she is the
fourth-most awarded solo artist at the
Teen Choice Awards.[167]Seventeen also named her "the most powerful girl under 21" in 2014.[168]
In April 2014, Gomez had fired her mother and stepfather as her managers, who had served in those roles since her career at Disney.[169] Gomez later signed with two new
talent agencies,
WMA and
Brillstein, to manage her career.[170]The Hollywood Reporter informed: "Selena's desire to find fresh handlers is part of a strategy to "move on into more adult-oriented fare in film and music"", and finally get rid of the image of the "Disney's Teen Idol".[171] The news about Gomez's new management fueled rumors that her contract with
Hollywood Records was coming to an end.[172] In November 2014, Gomez surprise-released her new single "
The Heart Wants What It Wants", and confirmed after months of speculation that she would be releasing a
compilation album to complete her contract with
her label.[172] The single became her second top-ten hit in the U.S.,[50] and reached the top-ten in Canada.[99] In the same month, Gomez released her first solo compilation album of her greatest hits, For You, which also includes three brand new songs.[173] The album debuted at number twenty-four on the U.S. Billboard 200,[80] earning 35,506 album-equivalent units in its first week.[174] Gomez officially parted ways with Hollywood Records and later signed with

dance-pop and
electropop record with
R&B vibes.[186][187] The album was reviewed positively by critics, who praised its production and lyrical content.[188] Writing for Rolling Stone, Brittany Spanos stated that "Revival is an audacious name for a 23-year-old singer's second album, but from start to finish, Gomez earns it," noting that "[t]his is the sound of a newly empowered pop artist growing into her strengths like never before."[189] Kristen S.Hé of Billboard called it "one of the most influential pop albums of the late 2010s."[190] The album debuted at number-one on the U.S. Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 117,000

Gomez embarked on her worldwide
Revival Tour in May 2016.[209][210] She claimed that the tour would focus solely on her as an artist and would feature less choreography and fewer effects than her
previous tour.[210] Gomez began working on her
third studio album while touring and added a new song titled "
Feel Me" to the
setlist of her Revival Tour.[211] The song was later released in February 2020, due to high demand from fans.[212] After touring in North America, Asia and Oceania, she canceled the European and South America legs in August 2016 due to anxiety, panic attacks and depression caused by her lupus.[213]

Gomez served as executive producer for the
series adaptation of the novel Thirteen Reasons Why.[60] The show premiered on
Netflix in March 2017.[245] The series drew backlash from various mental health charities and suicide prevention communities over "dangerous content", with some people feeling the show glamorized suicide. Gomez addressed the controversy, saying that "We stayed very true to the book and that's initially what [author]
Jay Asher created was a beautifully tragic, complicated yet suspenseful story and I think that's what we wanted to do. We wanted to do it justice and, yeah, [the backlash is] gonna come no matter what. It's not an easy subject to talk about, but I'm very fortunate with how it's doing.[246] Despite the controversy, the first season was a critical success.[247] However, the other three seasons received generally negative reviews.[248][249][250]13 Reasons Why was the most tweeted about show of 2017, and the most-watched original streaming series of 2018.[251][252] In 2022, its second season ranks as the
ninth most watched English-language television series on Netflix, with 496.1million hours viewed within 28 days of release.[253][254] The series ended after four seasons in June 2020.[255] Gomez recorded a cover version of the song "

vertical music video which was available for streaming only through
Spotify;[257] it was the first-ever music video to premiere on Spotify.[258] The song received universal acclaim from music critics,[259][260][261] with some deeming it Gomez's best song to date;[262]Billboard ranked it as the best song of 2017.[263]Rolling Stone ranked "Bad Liar" at number 39 on its 2019 list of best songs of the 2010s.[264] Winston Cook-Wilson of Spin magazine found Gomez's vocals pristine and the track "charmingly weird", calling its lyrics and sample usage "harebrained but ultimately brilliant". He appreciated "Bad Liar" for eschewing contemporary radio trends, concluding that it "mostly just sounds like itself, and there's no higher compliment to pay it.[265] Gomez released the single "
Fetish" featuring rapper
Gucci Mane two month later.[266] In October 2017, Gomez and EDM producer
Marshmello released the single "
Wolves".[267] The song was a commercial success, and reached the top ten on charts in Australia, Canada, the U.K, and several European countries,[268] peaking at number twenty in the U.S.[50] Later that year, Gomez was named

Woody Allen's romantic comedy A Rainy Day in New York, with
Timothée Chalamet and
Elle Fanning.[295][296] Due to a resurgence of the
1992 sexual abuse allegation against Allen prompted by the
MeToo movement, Gomez made a donation of over $1 million, exceeding her salary from the film, to the
Time's Up initiative.[297] The film received mixed reviews from critics,[298] but Gomez's performance was praised;[299][300]Variety's Jessica Kiang wrote: "Gomez comes out the best of the younger cast, husking her way through some of the films better lines."[301] Gomez served as an executive producer for the Netflix
docuseriesLiving Undocumented, released in October 2019,
which follows eight
undocumented families in America.[302][303] The docuseries was a critical success.[304][305] According to an
op-ed written by Gomez for Time on October 1, 2019, Gomez said she was approached about the project in 2017 and decided to become involved after watching footage that captured "the shame, uncertainty, and fear I saw my own family struggle with. But it also captured the hope, optimism, and patriotism so many undocumented immigrants still hold in their hearts despite the hell they go through."[306]
2020–2023: Rare, Revelación and television projects
In October 2019, Gomez released "
Lose You to Love Me" as the lead single from her third studio album.[307] The next day, she surprise-released the album's second single, "

Rare" and "
Boyfriend".[317][318]
Gomez released her first Spanish-language project, an EP titled Revelación, in March 2021.[344] The record blends
reggaeton,
Latin pop, R&B genres with
urbano elements, marking a departure from the dance-pop sound of its predecessor, Rare.[345][346] It debuted at number twenty-two in the US,[347] shifting 23,000 equivalent album units in its first week of release, marking the largest sales week for a Latin album by a woman at the time, since
