Selena Gomezis living her best life as she steps back from the glare of social media.
On Sunday, the“It Ain’t Me”singer, 26, shared a fresh-faced Instagram along with an announcement that she intends to take a social media hiatus. In the photo, which she dubbed a “mood,” Gomez flashed a big smile as she leaned her chin in her hand and gazed into a mirror.
“Update: taking a social media break. Again,” she captioned the image. “As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each of us, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. Kindness and encouragement only for a bit!”
After a fan commented “so glad to see u so HAPPY recently,” Gomez replied, “best I’ve ever been!”
