Selena Gomez Reacts to Political Video: Decides to Stay Away from Politics Despite ‘Tears’

London: Selena Gomez quickly deleted an emotional video in which she tearfully discussed the struggles of migrants, after it sparked backlash and calls for deportation.

According to sources, the Only Murders In The Building star’s decision to remove the video related to Trump’s mass deportation order was made to “stay out of politics.”

The source shared, “She realizes she cannot go up against a Republican-backed nation, many of whom are loyal customers of her Rare Beauty brand.”

The insider explained that Gomez, who is engaged to her longtime partner Benny Blanco, “does not wish to alienate people.”

The tipster added, “She wants to stay out of politics and focus on her own path after the drama.”

“Selena thought she was being authentic and helpful with her video, but in retrospect, she now feels it could have been more impactful without the tears,” the insider continued.

The source explained, “The tears showed weakness, which was not her intention,” adding, “She is very passionate, and after seeing critics call for her to donate some of her millions to improve the lives of immigrants in their home countries, she realized she could never win.”

“She only wants people to understand that most Americans are descendants of immigrants. Many people are citizens because their ancestors chose to come here, whether documented or not,” the source added.

To note, Selena Gomez took to Instagram stories on Monday to share an emotional video discussing Trump’s immigration policy.
