AceShowbiz - Selena Gomez's mother has weighed in on her frequent social media breaks. Although the "Same Old Love" singer faced backlash for stepping away from online platforms too often, Mandy Teefey defended her daughter in a recent interview, saying that she can do "whatever she needs."
"It's just whatever she needs for that time period," the 47-year-old told Elite Daily. "I can go a week without looking at any social media, and then I'll get on there and I'll try to catch up. But it's just whatever time Selena needs, she gives herself."
Asked whether she and Selena "ever talked about the benefits of stepping away from social media together," Mandy replied, Yeah, you're more at ease, in your world, and living in the moment." She added, "It's so much more peaceful."
The last time Selena took a break from social media was in January. At the time, the "Love You Like a Love Song" songstress, who is currently dating record producer dating Benny Blanco, went viral for allegedly gossiping about Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet's romance at the 2024 Golden Globes.
"I'm off social for a while," the "Only Murders in the Building" star penned on Instagram Story. She then stated, "I'm focusing on what really matters."
During the awards ceremony, Selena was seen chatting to Taylor Swift and actress Keleigh Sperry, and fans subsequently speculated that they were talking about Kylie and Timothee's high-profile romance. But Selena has already rubbished that idea.
Responding to the speculation, Selena, who has a huge social media following, recently wrote on Instagram, "Noooooo I told Taylor about two of my friends who hooked up. Not that that's anyone business. (sic)."
