Don’t have a look at her now.
Selena Gomez isn’t inspired via the web mocking the faces she made according to Chris Brown’s 2023 MTV Video Music Awards nomination and Olivia Rodrigo’s efficiency at Tuesday’s award display.
“I will never be a meme again,” Gomez, 31, wrote on her Instagram Story Wednesday.
“I’d rather sit still than be dragged for being myself. Much love,” she signed off.
The “Single Soon” singer’s frightened appearance during Rodrigo’s performance went viral on social media Tuesday evening.
The “Vampire” singer’s degree deliberately fell aside as curtains fell from the sky, fiery pyrotechnics break out into motion, and a person wearing all twilight escorted Rodrigo clear of the deliberate chaos.
A digicam pointed at Gomez all through the efficiency captured her overlaying her ear and taking a look on with superior worry.
After within the evening, Gomez, who won Highest Afrobeats for “Calm Down” with Rema, made a stank face when Brown used to be discussed as a nominee within the Highest R&B division.
iHeartRadio Australia posted the time to its Instagram, inviting fans to peer it for themselves.
An unimpressed Gomez commented, “Who cares lol.”
A Gomez fan account moreover claimed on X, the platform up to now referred to as Twitter {that a} fan who allegedly met the “Only Murders in the Building” star later the VMAs claimed Gomez was “so mad.”
Then again, a supply with wisdom of the status informed The Publish on Wednesday that Gomez “definitely wasn’t mad after the show” and used to be taking a look ahead to attending a small afterparty.
The Publish has contacted reps for Gomez for remark.
The “Lose You to Love Me” singer donned a red Oscar de la Renta gown for the awards rite ahead of turning into a short purple satin dress from Undone via Kate.
Gomez has been perceptible about her contentious dating with social media. Again in 2021 she famously deleted Instagram for her psychological condition. “I say that because that’s a huge, significant part of why I feel like I’ve been as healthy as I have been,” she stated to WWD’s Beauty Inc. “I’m completely unaware of actually what’s going on in pop culture, and that makes me really happy. And maybe that doesn’t make everybody else happy, but for me, it’s really saved my life.”
She persevered, “To be honest, I was just, like, ‘This is too much information. This is too much of my personal life spread out everywhere, and it just felt uncontrollable. I felt like my thoughts and everything I was consuming revolved around a million different other people in the world saying good things and bad things. And I just thought, ‘Why would I—I don’t get anything from it. Nothing is giving me life.’ And I just snapped, and I was over it. I wanted to delete it altogether, but my team was smart enough to convince me not to. But I’m happy I didn’t, because it is such a wonderful way to stay connected, and when I do go on, it makes me happy to know that I’m just being completely honest and being true to who I am.”
