Selena Gomez revealed that she hasn't used social media in 4 years

[Sad Bunny]

With 310 million Instagram followers and counting, Selena Gomez is one of the most followed people on the planet. And yet, she hasn’t logged on to the platform — or the internet — in nearly five years.

Coinciding with the launch of her mental healthresource site Wondermind, the 29-year-old singer-actress stopped by Good Morning America Monday (April 4) to chat about her mental wellness journey, which she says took a huge turn for the better after she decided to step away from social media. “I haven’t been on the internet in four and a half years,” she told GMA. “It has changed my life completely.”

So instead of complaining about cyberbullying, she just logged TF off

A lot of people in the world would be better off mentally if they actually had the courage to log off.

If she said social media I would believe her but, the entire internet nope

That’s cool but you can still use the internet and not be in social media.

Not necessarily for a celebrity as they can find content and articles on themselves without intentionally trying to do so easier than the average person.

you mean social media

im pretty sure she has used the 'internet'

 

[OVER]

Yeah, they meant social media. I kept seeing the article about this while checking my e-mail yesterday. Using the internet these days as simple as turning on your tv, using your phone etc.

And yeah getting off social media is good for regular people. I can't even imagine being famous and using it for anything outside of promoting myself or projects. You got people who you don't even know who hate you for nothing but want to consume media featuring you and show up on your pages to let you know they hate you.

She sells content exclusively on Amazon, so yes.

One of my favourite quotes.

I highly doubt she’s managed to “not” use the internet, presumably she has to answer emails, watches television or YouTube, listens to internet music platforms, probably visits news websites, searches up answers to questions, etc.

Where do you find celebrity news looking up your account balance, loading up google maps, or browsing the app store?
