Selena Gomez Prefers a Collaborative Filmmaking Style Over Being the Spotlight

Los Angeles, Dec 12 (NationPress) Singer-actress Selena Gomez revealed that she values a collaborative approach to filmmaking and has never aspired to be the centre of attention.

The 32-year-old actress discussed her experiences with collaborative filmmakers, such as Jacques Audiard, director of 'Emilia Perez'.

In an interview with variety.com, she stated: “I’ve never wanted to be the centre of attention, so I love working with filmmakers that make it feel collaborative. Jacques was like a little kid.”

“He would get so excited when we’d do something right, and he would let us know - even though I couldn’t understand him half the time. I was appreciative.”

When asked if Audiard, who hails from Paris, spoke French during filming, Gomez replied: “It was such a weird experience. We had translators; we had coaches; we had Jacques’ interpreter. French, English, Spanish - it was the wildest combination, but he pulled it off.”

Although Gomez doesn't enjoy being the centre of attention, she is eager to challenge herself as an actress.

She mentioned: “I have been acting and singing my whole life, but this is all a new experience for me. I’m really proud of the choices I’ve made, because I go for the parts that scare me a little. That’s the rush I crave.”

Earlier this year, she reached billionaire status, and she recently shared her pride in her accomplishments.

Despite her success, Gomez feels it has not altered her character.

Discussing her billionaire status with The Hollywood Reporter, she remarked: “I don’t really pay much attention. I don’t think anything about me has changed. I don’t think that I feel different. I think I’m just really proud. And also, personally, I just don’t think it’s anyone’s business.”

Recently, Gomez has also addressed the issue of loneliness in Hollywood and offered support to those who are struggling.
