It may come as a shock to her millions of fans, but singer and actress Selena Gomez hasn’t personally used social media herself in over 4 years. In a recent interview with Good Morning America, the Gomez spoke about her decision to step away from the internet for 4 and a half years and the benefits shes seen as a result.
“It has changed my life completely,” she said. “I am happier, I am more present, I connect more with people. I understand how powerful the internet is, and in so many ways it’s done the best things for the world. But for me, I get to my news that is actually important I get through people in my life.” Gomez actively has a team that manages all her accounts and post for her she shared. She told GMA that “growing up in the spotlight” taught her a lot, and that she “took the necessary steps” to avoid the spotlight at times.
