Selena Gomez, who earlier this year shared her story of her three big big demons Anxiety, Panic Attacks, and Depression, which she feels is a result of Lupus, which she discovered she was suffering from has initiated a quality of life change.
The 24-year old made the decision to cancel her “Revival Tour” to focus on her health and happiness.
“I need to face this head on to ensure I am doing everything possible to be my best,”
Selena explained.
A solid year off should be just the tonic to recharge her emotional batteries and figure out how she can temper the disease which can lay havoc when you are committing to performance dates.
“I felt unauthentic, unconnected to both myself and my music,”
Gomez shared.
Selena will be replaced by Demi Lovato for the upcoming Global Citizen Festival on September 24th.
Selena may not be the only celebrity performer to be struggling emotionally. She hopes that her decision may inspire others to take a second look at their careers and the price it exacts from their lives.
“I know I am not alone by sharing this,” Gomez pointed out, “I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues.”
