Selena Gomez On The Cover Of Time Magazine

Selena Gomez is one of many strong women on the cover of this week’s “Time” magazine and inside she talks about the struggles young people face these days with social media. 

“I think it’s really hard to be a kid now, especially with social media,” Selena says. “I can’t imagine what it would be like to grow up with that. It’s already difficult to get up every day and just feel good about yourself without seeing the highlights of everyone else’s life.”

Selena does believe social media has helped her really reach out to her fans though. “That’s why I like being vulnerable with my fans on social media," she offers. "I like that they’ve seen my mistakes. I try to use that as a way to connect with them.” 

She adds, “Strength doesn’t mean that you have to put on a facade. I think strength is being vulnerable.”
