In a previous interview with Vanity Fair, Selena opened up about how she ‘only has TikTok on her phone,’ “The only thing I have on my phone is TikTok because I find it to be a little less hostile. There are wonderful things about social media-connecting with fans, seeing how happy and excited they are and their stories. But usually that’s filtered through [for me now]. I created a system. Everything I do I send to my assistant who posts them. As far as comments, my team will put together a few things that are encouraging.”

Selena, who is now active on Instagram, admitted that deleted Instagram years ago and it was her assistant who posted content for her on the platform, “I never got the chance to go to an actual high school. The world was my high school for the longest time, and I started getting inundated with information that I didn’t want. I went through a hard time in a breakup and I didn’t want to see any of the [feedback]-not necessarily about the relationship, but the opinions of me versus [someone] else. There’d be thousands of really nice comments, but my mind goes straight to the mean one.”

“They write paragraphs that are so specific and mean. I would constantly be crying. I constantly had anxiety…I couldn’t do it anymore. It was a waste of my time,” she continued.
