Selena Gomez on social media trolling 

In an interview with Vanity Fair, she opened up about the online hate she faced post her breakup. She shared that people used to write "specific" and "mean" paragraphs on her social media posts. She said, "People can call me ugly or stupid and I’m like, whatever. But these people get detailed. They write paragraphs that are so specific and mean. I would constantly be crying. I constantly had anxiety. I couldn’t do it anymore. It was a waste of my time."

She revealed that the only social media app she has on her phone is TikTok as it is "less hostile." Selena stated that she has a filter system that helps her team to put together a few encouraging comments. 

On the professional front, Selena is all set to appear in season 3 of Only Murders In The Building. Paul Rudd and Meryl Streep will be joining the leading cast of the singer, Steve Martin and Martin Short in the new episodes.
