Selena Gomez: ‘I need to rethink my life’

Selena Gomez says she needs to "rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally".
The 24-year-old singer took to Instagram after her gig in Jakarta, Indonesia on Friday (22.07.16), which was also her birthday, to explain that she is planning some major changes.
She included a screenshot of a message from her iPhone notes app, which read: "Tonight I felt extremely unauthentic, unconnected to both my myself and my music. I’ve never really felt like my materials, wardrobe or a video could define me. I act on a moment and fear something that hasn’t happened. I’m stagnant, I stay still and don’t just sit with myself first and ask, ‘Is this where I am, whole heartedly?’ I’ve always told the truth. I’m always true to my word, I’ve shown who I am but I need to rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally. Had to get that out."
Selena captioned the screenshot: "Not being negative about anything I’ve done. I’m grateful for every single moment I get here – Indonesia you were LOUD and clearly inspiring. Love you so much."
And earlier on stage, Selena got emotional before performing ‘Kill ‘Em With Kindness’.
She said: "The next song, before I go home, is a song that’s so important to me. Because I get really frustrated, I get stupid sometimes, I say things that I don’t mean. Or that come out wrong just because I care so badly.
"But the thing is, at the end of the day, no war in anger was ever won. I do know that deep down in my heart that I have to believe that we can love each other and always be kind no matter what it takes in us. I believe that we can do that, no matter what."
