00:00 Selena Gomez is out here feeling herself. The songstress took to Instagram to
00:06 share selfies of herself in two different outfits. In the first snap
00:09 Selena rocked a red top and pulled her hair back into a sleek pony along with
00:14 a bow. The Only Murderers and The Building Star also shared a pair of snaps
00:18 sporting the same hairstyle but wearing a blue corset top and a jean skirt. The
00:23 new photos come a week after the actress celebrated her 31st birthday. On her
00:28 birthday Selena shared a heartfelt message on Instagram writing quote "I'm
00:32 thankful for so much in my life and one of the things I am most thankful for is
00:36 the work we've been able to do with the Rare Impact Fund through @RareBeauty
00:40 because of you we've been able to raise awareness and increase access to mental
00:45 health services for young people. The 31 year old has been an advocate for mental
00:50 health for years and has shined a light on her own mental health journey in her
00:54 recent documentary My Mind and Me. Access Hollywood's Zuri Hall spoke with
00:59 Selena at the premiere of the film where she shared what she feared most in her
01:03 darkest moments.
01:06 Thank you and same. First of all congratulations on this project and
01:11 secondly thank you for making it like I'm not gonna get super emotional but
01:16 thank you for making it. You know it took a lot of brave vulnerability to share a
01:20 story like this your story and I just spoke with Alec who said that you gave
01:25 him full license to do what he would with your story. How much vulnerability
01:30 how much if any fear was there attached to that? I am still scared actually it
01:35 was very uncomfortable to be honest in moments but then I feel like it was also
01:41 necessary I thought the story needed to be bigger than just me and my music I
01:47 think it took a life of its own and he just created the story that truly is my
01:53 life in a time capsule. Yeah your life in a time capsule it is inspiring it's gut
01:59 wrenching you know I asked this next question and I don't ask it lightly and
02:03 only so much as you're comfortable sharing but that log line behind us says
02:07 every breath a breakthrough what does that mean for you and in your darkest
02:12 moments of that struggle what did you maybe fear most? I think I was scared of
02:17 myself the way I was treating myself the way I was talking about my body it
02:23 breaks my heart to think that's who I was and it was really heartbreaking for
02:29 me to know that I hope I never I just don't want anyone to feel what I feel or
02:33 has walked through. I feel like you this can't not be an emotional carpet for you
02:41 what are you feeling right now and why? I'm very nervous this has been exciting
02:47 but a little overwhelming to be honest I think I am still like a little shaky but
02:51 I'm excited to be here and I'm happy that it's gonna be released. So really
02:56 quickly anyone struggling at home who may be watching and going through
02:59 something similar who may feel like their darkest days are still ahead what
03:04 would you say to them what would you encourage them? I would encourage them to
03:07 to be not afraid to seek help but at the same time learn about it understand what
03:13 it is because once you have the knowledge of what you're going through
03:16 you're less afraid of it so I would say learn as much as you can.
