Honestly I'm even surprised that selena gomez managed to stay relevant for a decade. Like she actually managed to make it this far, not to be harsh but she doesn't have anything special that she brings to the current landscape of pop culture, like, sure she's gorgeous. But other than that she's average at almost everything she does. Her personality doesn't leave an impression, her vocals aren't one to exactly rave about, I watched two films with her in it, she's entertaining at best.

- And my impression is she doesn't write most of her songs ( all though I know she wrote a few ). What's more mind boggling to me is that she's pretty much one of the most well connected girlies In the music industry. She had so many opportunities that I feel she didn't take advantage of. At her peak she was seen with anyone who was anyone in the industry. Her bff taylor swift ( I don't know how genuine the friendship is ) is one of the most prominent female songwriters of this decade. Now I'm sure taylor knows many people in the industry that could help selena with some of her albums, some upcoming songwriters who could write her something, or talented producers who are looking for exposure. I feel like what selena lacks most imo is direction, and which with revival we saw a glimpse of. Sometimes she comes of uninspired and lazy when it comes to music. And after rare... the album was lackluster and disservice to the progress that was made in previous eras.

I feel like Selena’s real talent lies within media play and making connections to keep her relevant. It’s quite fascinating to see because Miley is undoubtedly the biggest household name out of that generation of Disney stars but for the last 4-5 years, Selena has become the bigger name. I completely agree that she’s average in every area but she must be doing something right in terms of attracting stans because she’s got a stable and sizable fandom that goes hard for her whenever she drops a new project. All her collabs (which she singlehandedly bagged through industry connections) have been really average but it always seems to chart well/get decent radio play. I wouldn’t say that Selena hasn’t capitalised on the opportunities that have come by though. Just off the top of my head, I can name a fair few instances where she used her connection in the industry to get further/stay relevant: She made an appearance on Taylor’s Rep tour 2 years ago, she and Bieber capitalised on each other and their relationship and milked it for what all that it's worth (Her fans are gonna hate me for this but Bieber definitely got her into all the prestigious award ceremonies as his fate. Without him, she would have had zero chance to sitting front row), her friendship/fling with Charlie Puth got her a feature on ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’ which has gone like 4 times platinum or something, she dated Zedd and he gave her ‘I Want You to Know’ which ended up being huge, etc.

The only stage in Selena’s career where I felt like she failed to capitalise on was when she was dating the Weeknd. She should have at least done a song with him or went through with the rebranding her and her team was trying to do with ‘Fetish.’ That could have been an iconic era that cemented her in the pop music game but she fumbled by not dropping an EP to follow up the hype of that and ‘Bad Liar’ (not that it’s completely her fault, I know she went through a massive health scare and needed time to heal). If she’d follow ‘Revival’ up with an equally strong/critically acclaimed album, her singing career would look a lot different now. You’re correct that she lacks direction and I suspect that it’s because she’s not even all that passionate about making music...? I remember her saying how hands-on she was with the creation of ‘Rare’ but she didn’t even recognise her own lyrics when Madison Beer mentioned it on the live stream. In terms of writing lyrics, you could literally add one word into a line and that would be enough to get you a songwriting credit. Honestly, the best move to make now is to get herself a Taylor feature or vice-versa. They share a portion of their fanbase so it’s a win-win for both of them.

here’s my guess on what the pins all mean (since each of them is a easter egg):

selena gomez: a collab

dixie chicks: the openers for tour/possibly a collab since she’s hinted at them a lot

awesome: cant spell awesome without me tease

game of thrones characters: tbh i don’t watch game of thrones so i don’t really know but maybe a mv inspired by game of thrones ???

dragon: i hAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE FIGHTING DRAGONS WITH YOU

cats: the movie she’s in (obviously sjaksjskjs)

dun dun & mere + christina & “you’re my person”: it’s been rumoured that something is going to be hinted at ts7/she’ll be appearing on one of those shows

friends: i honestly have no idea, maybe a song about her true friends? it could just be because she likes the show sjsjkss i’m not sure about this one

troye sivan: a collab/tour guest

drake: a collab (if we don’t get a drake collab i will be so sad i NEED IT)

track 5: i’m terrified of this one because it was the same thing behind her in one of the delicate scenes. track 5 is always powerful so :O

olivia & meredith: gorgeous 2.0

paint pallet: there’s seven hearts i’m uwuwuwu maybe hinting at more paintings this era? we got some in the rep era i really hope we get more🥺

calm: a track name

i tried: (first of all,,, me lmao) this one really messes my brain up. since the old taylor died during the rep era and this pin is a gravestone with daisies around it, maybe she means that the old taylor tried to save her reputation but ended up going down with it? i don’t know. whatever it is i hope we get the old taylor back 😌

rainbow heart: ts7 is for the gays !!!!!! (i said what i said)

The 1 Item You Can Expect to See From Selena Gomez’s Coach Collab

Update:

We know the collaboration between Selena Gomez and Coach will involve a handbag. The singer revealed in an interview that the accessory she’s designing will “have an inspirational message that comes with the bag.”

Update:

Coach confirmed the news in a press release: “Coach . . . today announced its partnership with the actress and singer Selena Gomez. The collaboration with Coach will be wide ranging and commence with her appearing in Coach’s fall 2017 fashion campaign. It will also include a special design project with Coach Executive Creative Director Stuart Vevers. In addition, Ms. Gomez will partner with the Coach Foundation in its support of Step Up, a national organization dedicated to the empowerment of teen girls from under-resourced communities.”

The press release also included the following statement from Selena: “I am so excited to work with Coach and love the clothes and accessories designed by Stuart Vevers. I am especially looking forward to getting to know the Coach team as well as becoming involved in the Foundation’s support of Step Up. On top of all that, collaborating on a piece with Stuart for next fall makes this beyond special to me.”

Original post:

When you’re a style star with the record of the most Instagram followers of all time under your belt, a collaboration with an iconic brand isn’t too far off. Selena Gomez sparked some rumors that she’s the new face of Coach, and that’s not the only news traveling around the internet – she may even design some pieces for the fashion house. When asked about the news, Coach was tight-lipped, telling POPSUGAR, “Coach has a longstanding policy that we do not comment on rumors and speculation.”

The fashion buzz comes after Selena made an appearance at the AMAs, resurfacing after some much-needed time off. She also attended Coach’s 75th anniversary event, where they threw a motel-themed party and pre-Fall ’17 runway show. If Selena reps the brand, she’ll be in good company: other Coach alums include Emma Roberts and Chloë Grace Moretz. Until then, read on for what we hope to see from Selena’s Coach partnership and stay tuned to see if our predictions come true.
