She stayed with us the entire day on set and spoke to everyone, said Dylan Minnette, the star of the popular TV show, when Gomez showed up one day.

According to Selena, who serves as an ambassador, "25,000 children die from preventable causes every day." I agree with UNICEF that we can reduce that figure from 25,000 to zero. Because UNICEF is constantly on the ground giving children the lifesaving support required to make the goal of zero a reality, I am confident that we can achieve this.

Trolls were "attacking" her online persona when she was ill; she claimed, "That got me big time." That truly upset me for a while... To be honest, it depends even on the month that I have to take this drug for the rest of my life. I became very aware when I began to face criticism for that. That's just my reality, in truth. I vacillate. Depending on what's going on in my life,
