I Had People Tell Me I Wasn't Talented Enough by Selena Gomez

REACTION?

Being business-minded so young is more about being passionate with the things that you love. I mean, I’ve had people tell me that I would never have my own show that I wasn’t talented or strong enough. And I’ve had a bunch of people criticize my music and my personal style and everything. I think it’s all about finding something you’re genuinely passionate about that you would never let anything get in the way of. That is a big part of how I became who I am because I love everything that I do. So if you have that passion it will give you the drive that you need to become unstoppable.

  • lol WTF?! They told HER that she wasn't talented enough!?! That guy must be f*cking punching himself in the balls right now for saying that crap. This girl is huge and very talented.
  • go ahead girl! speak the truth! true dat! i wish i was famous like you(:
  • Selena I love you I'm a french fan :D I Love you so much you're my inspiration ! <3
  • Sorry Selena but talent does not matter. It's not what you know it's who you know. This is only an example: Do you actually think Jalen Smith is talented, not saying he isn't but his family made a movie for him to be in and coached him. If I had children and knew a director I am sure I can coach my children to star in a movie.Same with Russel kids. They will be talented because of opprunties they are presented with. So talent is not needed. Your network very needed. At the end of the day talent is not whats make you successful or a star. It's what/who you know. Most of these a-list celebs are no where near talented in my opinion. They have the media machine brainwashing us into beleiving they are talented when in reality they are not
    • @kim& chuck
      Networking helps but talent is the root of making others believe in you. Keep in mind of Beethoven, a world-class pianist.
  • She seems like a smart young lady who seems to have some control over her career, which is refreshing.
  • I dont see why Selena Gomez isn't marketed like Miley Cryus but then again maybe it's a blessing in disguise she wasn't. Selena is a breath of fresh air when all these young girls see sex, sex every where in music and movies.
  • Well said. :-)
  • I loved what you wrote. It came across very genuine. First of all, you didn't put down anyone. As there is no reason to put down anyone no matter who they are. As far as those you look up to, you didn't compare yourself to them. You very well expressed you are who you are. We're all individuals. We know ourselves better among all. Even though, you being a celebrity may come across criticisms, as you know yourself better among all, you don't let the criticisms get the best of you. What it comes down to is that you truly believe in yourself. Believing in yourself doesn't need reassurance from anyone. For all who choose to support the ones in their favor, you either support a person or not. Supporting gives the comfort and freedom to the one you favor as to who they choose to be. As it usually begins by stating who you are when it comes to introducing yourself to others: I am (your full name), and you are(other person's name).
    • If this was a negative blog there would have been 100's of comments. It's sad when it's something POSITIVE nobody gets inspired to express their opinion. How strange.



      I loved the blog && enjoyed it. You just continue to do what makes Selena stay happy. Much love & Congrats to all over your new projects including this wonderful movie!!
