Selena Gomez prepares her retirement from music: "I'm tired"

Selena Gomez has become one of the best-known stars internationally thanks to her performances and successful albums over the years. The former Disney girl managed to place herself on the podium of most popular actresses, especially among the youngest, with her participation in The Wizards of Waverly Place. Since then, she has managed to stay at the top.

10 years after her first solo album, the singer has achieved almost 50 million monthly listeners, and is one of the most followed people on social networks with 429 million followers. But it seems that it is now that she has begun to discover what she really makes her happy: acting.

The 31-year-old actress went to the podcast Smartless, by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett, and opened up more than ever about her thoughts about the future. Some statements that will be released in full on January 7, but that have appeared exclusively on E! News.

"I started having a lot of fun with music, because then touring was also very entertaining. But it was because at the same time I was making my own television series and if I continued it was because that was what was really fun," he began to relate, before drop the big bomb.

"I feel like I have one more album inside me, but I will certainly opt for interpretation," he made clear. With this, she has put on the table that although she still has music to release, it won't be long before she leaves this part of her career behind to focus on her role as an actress, which is what truly makes her happy.

And if there is something you would like, it is to decide what you want to do in your future, since you cannot do everything. And this is due to his health problems. "I want to relax because I'm tired," she stated forcefully.

Selena Gomez has spent practically her entire life under the pressure of singing and acting at the same time. At only 14 years old she began to be what she is. A burden that has been weighing on her little by little and that she wants to get rid of. Already in 2011 she stated in an interview for CinemaNerdz that she considered herself "more of an actress" than a singer. And her true passion is acting.

"Disney is a machine and, in a way, they required me to know how to sing in order to sing the main theme (of the series). They know how to package someone and turn them into a triple threat," he revealed. "I wanted to be an actress, I never intended to be a full-time singer, but apparently that hobby turned into something else," she said.
