During her cover shoot for ELLE’s October issue, Selena Gomez shared her thoughts on her friend Demi Lovato’s near-fatal drug overdose. The 26-year-old singer and actress expressed her love and support for Demi and revealed that she personally reached out to offer help and comfort.
When asked about her friend, Selena expressed her personal approach in reaching out to her. She opted not to make it public because of her love for her friend whom she has known since she was seven years old. That’s all she has to say about it.
Just a couple of days before Demi’s overdose, the star hit her 26th birthday. She took some time to reflect on her new age and expressed a feeling of calm and confidence that she had never experienced before. Unlike her previous self, who was emotionally unstable and unpredictable, the star now feels more self-assured and composed. This is the beginning of a fresh chapter in her life where she has a better understanding of herself.
During the interview, Selena discussed the significance of the track “Flawless” from her upcoming album. She explained that the song promotes self-love and accepting yourself just the way you are, without feeling the need to constantly try to change or improve.
Selena’s recent public expression of support for Demi Lovato highlights the strong and lasting friendship between the two stars, demonstrating the critical role of standing by friends during difficult times. As they both have faced personal challenges in the public eye while growing up, their connection is particularly significant.
While Demi Lovato is on the road to recovery, she’s fortunate to have friends like Selena Gomez who provide her with unconditional support. Their bond serves as a testament to the strength of friendship and love during life’s toughest times.
