Acting is my strong suit, says Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez has confirmed that she intends to focus on her acting career.
Selena Gomez plans to prioritize her acting career.
The 32-year-old star recently starred in 'Emilia Perez' - the musical crime film - and Selena has confirmed that she intends to focus on acting, rather than music, for the time being.
The brunette beauty told Variety: "I love storytelling, and my music career is separate. However, I don’t see that being a forever thing."
Selena - who is dating record producer Benny Blanco - insisted that music will "always" be in her life. But the 'Only Murders in the Building' star is firmly focused on her acting career for the moment.
She said: "I’ll always have music in my life because my partner’s a musician, and I love having moments to do it for fun. It can be a little vulnerable when you’re putting yourself out there versus escaping into a character."
Selena considers acting to be her "strong suit", and she conceded that she's now "a little too old for the pop-star life".
The Hollywood star explained: "I definitely think my strong suit is probably acting.
"But one thing I’m proud of in music is being able to tell a story - my favourite songs are mostly ballads, and they’re very transparent and honest. But I think I might be a little too old for the pop-star life.
"I’m genuinely so happy to just be in this new era of my life, because in a lot of ways, it’s just the beginning."
Selena previously claimed that she hasn't even "scratched the surface" of her acting ambitions.
The actress has enjoyed huge success in recent years - but Selena still has so many things she wants to achieve.
She told The Hollywood Reporter: "Acting has, and will always be, my heart.
"There’s so much that I want to do and that I haven’t even scratched the surface of, and it’s exciting to me."
