Some fans of the songstress became concerned after noticing an IV or tube in Gomez’s arm. A supporter had this reaction: “I hope she recovers soon. I’m not a fan, but I’m someone who has humanity. Wishing her a speedy recovery. sending my prayers to her.”
Gomez has surprised many by revealing that this is the first time she is voting in her life.
The 28-year-old star said: “Honestly, I’m not ashamed to say this. But… I’m kind of… This was my first time. I’m going to say that because I’ve never felt — and this is so true, and I’m now admitting it to people — like my vote counts. Every vote counts. Some people get in their head, and they’re like, ‘Oh, well what does it matter?'”
She added: “My main focus has been this right now. You can tell on my social media and everything. Obviously, I’m super invested in this right now. It’s been good. I feel hopeful.”

Gomez also spoke about Dr. Vivek Murthy, the former Surgeon General, on Instagram Live and said she was struck by depression when the pandemic hit the United States.
The businesswoman said: “In the beginning, I couldn’t deal with it that well. I kind of went into a bit of a depression. My job is a lot of travel, connecting with people, making people happy, and that makes me happy, so it has been a struggle.”
She continued: “Slowly, towards the end, I found thing things I’m doing are coming out, and that was extremely exciting for me. I’ve worked on personal things like a beauty line that has a goal of reaching $100 million in 10 years for mental health. And recently, I’ve been able to go to the studio. So I would say right now, I’m fully coming out again, and I just think I had to handle it the way I needed to handle it, and got through it with the right people and doing the right things and doing the right steps to not make me go crazy.”
