Her heartbreaking account of the current immigration crisis was published online in a stirring essay.
However, Selena Gomez temporarily set aside her opinions about the nation’s humanitarian problems when she was seen on Tuesday afternoon leaving a recording studio in Los Angeles.
Only a few weeks after hinting that new music was in the works, the 27-year-old singer looked chic in black overalls and a tank top.
Wearing cute black overalls and a strappy white tank top, Selena walked to a waiting car carrying a bundle of paperwork.
She wore her luscious brown tendrils partially tied back, with loose curls hanging down past her shoulders, and pounded the pavement while sporting a pair of white leather booties.
The singer of the song “Hands to Myself” appeared to be in high spirits after giving it all in the studio and wore minimal makeup.
Shortly after her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber wed Hailey Baldwin in a second wedding ceremony in South Carolina, Selena wrote a heartfelt essay for Time about the immigration crisis.
The essay started out this way: “My aunt crossed the border into the United States from Mexico in the 1970s while hiding in the back of a truck.”
My father was born in Texas not long after my grandparents followed.
I became an American citizen in 1992 as a result of their courage and selflessness. Members of my family have put a lot of effort into becoming citizens of the United States over the past 40 years.
“I consider undocumented immigration a daily concern, and I am always grateful for my family’s support and the serendipitous circumstances that led to my birth in this nation.”But I get scared for people in similar circumstances when I read the news headlines or watch arguments about immigration rage on social media. I’m terrified for my nation.
“Immigration is a divisive political issue,” she added. It is the topic of innumerable news articles and never-ending debates. However, immigration transcends news and politics. It is a human problem that destroys real lives and affects real people. Our response to it reflects our humanity, compassion, and empathy. Who we are is determined by the way we treat other people.
‘I don’t claim to be an expert,’ Gomez continued. I’m not a doctor, I’m not a politician, and I’m not involved in the system in any way.
I acknowledge that it’s not perfect and that laws and regulations are necessary, but we must also keep in mind that immigrants from other nations helped to form our nation. It’s imperative to pay attention to those whose lives are being impacted directly by immigration laws. It’s time to learn more about the people whose nuanced tales have been condensed into simplistic headlines.
