Selena Gomez is going to make you tear up when you see her start crying during her acceptance speech at the 2017 Billboard Women in Music event.
The 25-year-old “Wolves” singer was awarded the Woman of the Year honor at the celebration held on Thursday (November 30) in Hollywood.
Selena‘s friends Francia Raisa and Elle Fanning presented the award to her.

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the position that I’ve been given in my career. I want people to know that I respect the platform that I have so deeply,” she added. “I’ve never felt more proud to be a woman in this industry. I am so grateful for all the older women who have helped us up.”
