SELENA GOMEZ

From afar, you could easily think she’s shallow: U.S. child star, singer, actress, makeup entrepreneur and former girlfriend of Justin Bieber and The Weeknd. Up close in the Apple TV documentary “My Mind & Me,” however, she reveals her mental anguish without the benefits of Photoshop and spotlights: How she’s so plagued by depression that she can’t get out of bed, how she cries through the chemotherapy sessions she needs because she suffers from the autoimmune disease Lupus. Rare, raw images that she almost didn’t approve for release: “It’s kind of like I’m sacrificing myself a little bit for a greater purpose,” she told Rolling Stone. She hopes the film will help raise global awareness of what it’s like to have mental and physical health issues. At the American Music Awards, Gomez said in a speech: “I don’t want to see your bodies on Instagram, I want to see what’s in your hearts.” And her new authenticity is striking a chord: Gomez now has 411 million followers and has even overtaken Kim Kardashian.
