“I think I’d be fine if it all went away” – Selena Gomez Talks About Being Famous

Selena Gomez feels she would be ‘fine’ if she wasn’t famous.

The 24-year-old spoke to Humans Of New York‘s Brandon Stanton at this year’s Met Gala, which took place on Monday in New York and he shared her beliefs on his Instagram page.

Although the “Good For You” singer feels she is ‘just starting’ out as a successful artist, she thinks she can easily live her life not being in the limelight.

She adds she knows it is all ‘a privilege’ that could be taken away from her ‘at any moment.’

“I feel like I’m just starting, but I think I’d be fine if it all went away. I get that from my mother. From the moment I started singing, she always reminded me that all of this was a privilege, and could be taken at any moment. So singing is not how I define myself. I try to keep my identity rooted in my friendships and my faith.” (Link to entire collection of Met Gala stories can be found in bio.)
