Selena Gomez Says She's Close To Retiring From Music: 'I Want To Give It One Last Try'

Selena Gomez is opening up about the future of her music career!

The 28-year-old “Baila Conmigo” singer shared in her new Vogue cover story that she’s almost ready to retire from music.

“It’s hard to keep doing music when people don’t necessarily take you seriously,” she said. “I’ve had moments where I’ve been like, ‘What’s the point? Why do I keep doing this?’ ‘Lose You to Love Me’ I felt was the best song I’ve ever released, and for some people, it still wasn’t enough.”

“I think there are a lot of people who enjoy my music, and for that I’m so thankful, for that I keep going, but I think the next time I do an album it’ll be different,” Selena shared. “I want to give it one last try before I maybe retire music.”

She then clarified that she wants to focus more on producing and “give myself a real shot at acting.”

In regards to her upcoming Spanish EP, Selena said, “It’s a Sasha Fierce moment, for sure.”

Tainy, who produced the EP, said that “It’s a huge task. It’s not easy; it takes courage. And she sounds amazing.”

“She has this tone that’s so distinctive,” he added. “She can hit high notes if she wants to, she can explode in a chorus, but there’s this softness. It’s angelic. You want to leave space around her vocal. What I’ll say is, a lot of artists generate emotion through power—what’s different about Selena is that she generates emotion through subtlety.”
