Life and career
1992–2006: Early life and career beginnings
Selena Marie Gomez was born in Grand Prairie, Texas,[4] to Ricardo Joel Gomez and former stage actress Amanda Dawn "Mandy" Cornett.[6][7][8] Gomez was named after Tejano singer Selena, who died almost three years after Gomez was born.[9] Her father is of Mexican descent while her mother, who was adopted, has some Italian ancestry.[10][11][12] Regarding her Hispanic heritage, Gomez has stated, "My family does have Quinceañeras, and we go to the communion church. We do everything that's Catholic, but we don't really have anything traditional except [that we] go to the park and have barbecues on Sundays after church."[13] Her birth parents divorced when she was five years old, and she was raised as an only child by her working mother, who had her when she was 16.[6][14] This led to the family having financial troubles, with her mother struggling to provide for them.[15] On the situation, Gomez stated "I was frustrated that my parents weren't together, and never saw the light at the end of the tunnel where my mom was working hard to provide a better life for me. I'm terrified of what I would have become if I'd stayed [in Texas]."[16] On June 12, 2013, Mandy and her second husband Brian Teefey had a daughter named Gracie Elliot Teefey.[17][18]
Gomez met Demi Lovato while they were auditioning for Barney and Friends.[19] The two became close friends and would later participate in various roles together.[20][21] She earned a high school diploma through homeschooling in May 2010.[22] Gomez officially earned her first role in 2002 when she was selected to appear on the children's television series Barney and Friends as the recurring character Gianna.[23] She appeared in a total of sixteen episodes, with her final appearance being in 2004.

In 2005, she had a cameo role in the television film Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire as Julie. Gomez later guest starred in an episode of the Disney Channel series The Suite Life of Zack & Cody in 2006.[26]

That same year, Gomez began dating fellow Disney star Nick Jonas.[42] This led to Gomez appearing in the music video for the song "Burnin' Up", performed by Nick's band Jonas Brothers.[43] The couple later broke up in 2009.[44] During this time, Gomez began to focus more on music. She performed a cover of the song "Cruella de Vil" for the compilation album DisneyMania 6.[45] Gomez later recorded the song "Fly to Your Heart" for the soundtrack of the animated film Tinker Bell.[46] Gomez provided guest vocals on the Forever the Sickest Kids' single "Whoa Oh!

I wouldn't do a role I don't feel comfortable doing or that my audience wouldn't feel comfortable seeing."[76] The film premiered on July 23, 2010 and was met with generally positive reviews.[77] Gomez was part of Sears' back-to-school fashion ad campaign.[78] As part of the campaign Gomez was featured in the television commercials.

So it's pretty incredible."[153][154] Gomez said of her role as ambassador that: "Every day 25,000 children die from preventable causes. I stand with UNICEF in the belief that we can change that number from 25,000 to zero. I know we can achieve this because every moment, UNICEF is on the ground providing children with the lifesaving assistance needed to ensure zero becomes a reality."[152]
