While the carnage in Gaza continues, Elena Gomez is taking a “social media break”
Selena Gomez announced her social media break and voiced her worries about the current state of affairs in Palestine and Israel on her Instagram Stories in a world where violence seems to be the norm. The gifted singer-actor continued her explanation for her social media quiet with a poignant plea for the defense of all innocent lives.
Gomez voiced her sadness at seeing the “horror, hate, violence, and terror” that is happening all around the world and her sincere compassion for those who are suffering on all fronts. The 31-year-old stated on her Instagram Stories, “I’ve been taking a break from social media because my heart breaks to see all of the horror, hate, violence, and terror that’s going on in the world.” “People being tortured and killed or any act of hate towards any one group is horrific.”

Gomez has drawn criticism from a number of people for suggesting that social media ralliers are ineffective. “Only White Lives Matter,” even for Selena Gomez, a person of Mexican descent. A user on X commented, “Selena made a compassionate call during the conflict in Ukraine, but even with 430 million followers, I didn’t think her voice would matter.”
Only White Lives Matter even for a Mexican origin #selenagomez
Selena made empathetic call during Ukraine war but despite having 430 M followers felt her voice won’t make any difference during #IsraelPalestineWar

“Here she is, advocating kindness like a cute little angel, but she is also creating a whole genocide around herself.” “I can spot a narcissist easily,” shot back another. For her, what does “I’d do anything” mean? What has she accomplished thus far for these kids? inquired a user.
