'There was pressure to seem more adult on my album, Revival...'
While she's learned to live with the public interest in her personal life in recent years, Gomez still takes steps to control what she sees, including withstanding from Googling herself.
"I haven't done that in years. I honestly can't," she says. "I'm strong in a lot of ways, but I think I just have way too much of a sensitive heart." Even while taking certain precautions on social media, when Gomez uses her platform it's for the sake of a cause, usually mental health."I have always had so many different emotions and I didn't know how to control them quite well. It was complicated. But I think I'm happy to understand it," she says. "Once I did find out more about who I was, I was proud. I also felt comfortable knowing that I wasn't alone, and I was going to get through it.
Gomez's self-assured nature is a product of many years in the spotlight and an impressive slate of projects to match. She's a producer, an actress, a singer, a philanthropist, a home chef and more. But above all is the control Gomez now feels she maintains over everything in both her personal and professional lives.
"I am in full control of my life and everything that I do, what is out there, everything," she says. "So I would like to say, yes. I'm in charge of everything in my life."
