During a conversation with Rolling Stones, Gomez revealed she is ready to embrace this new chapter in life and take a break from music, she shared, “I think it’s natural for people to take breaks, but I think for me, there is a whole other aspect to my life, pride and joy.”
Admitting her interest in the realms of TV and movies, she added:
I love film. I love TV. I just feel like I haven’t done a lot of the things that I want to do in that space.
Selena Gomez also addressed speculation of her retirement and continued, “It’s not that it’s ‘no, never’ to music, it’s more that I would like to explore that world a bit more and have the time to actually do that”, confessing that she intends to transition from music to acting.
