Selena Gomez’s 10 Most Inspirational Moments
At only 25, Billboard's 2017 Woman of the Year Selena Gomez has accomplished more than most.
Since launching an acting career when she was just a little girl (on Barney & Friends, no less), the pop star has since dominated both the big and small screen—as well as the Billboard charts. First it was with The Scene, her post-Disney Channel days band. These days, though, she's doing it on her own.
Despite all her professional achievements, however, the star has gone through her fair share of trials and tribulations. From dealing with the pressures of being a celebrity to suffering a harrowing, life-threatening health scare, no one can say that Gomez has it easy. But even though she's had to deal with some tough obstacles, the pop star continues to fight for her beliefs, her fans and even her own life on the daily.
Whether it's through song lyrics or an epic speech, Gomez isn't afraid to hide her honesty and vulnerability. And for that, she's one inspirational individual.
Below, we look back at ten times Gomez's words or actions encouraged us to keep going.
