Singer-actor Selena Gomez has spoken candidly about the challenges of being a high-profile woman in the age of social media and the toll it has taken on her. During a conversation on the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast, the Only Murders in the Building star and her fiancé, music producer Benny Blanco, discussed online negativity. While Benny admitted that he avoids reading negative comments and is largely indifferent to public opinion, Selenahad a different outlook. “I was also going to point out that women have it much worse,” she remarked. “From my perspective it’s pretty wild, and I think this isn’t news to anybody, that obviously women have a lot more intense feelings from their appearance to what they’re wearing to everything.” Unlike Benny, Selena acknowledged that she does sometimes come across critical remarks about herself. “When I get prepared for an event, 90 percent of the time I’m just like, ‘I just hope I can take the picture and sit down,’” she admitted. However, she added, “It’s the character that gets judged, it’s the way I’m not white enough, I’m not Mexican enough.”
