Selena Gomez struggles to discuss "very serious" volunteer efforts

Selena Gomez engages in his "selfish" desire to help those who are victims of human trafficking.

The artist spoke of her opportunity to volunteer with the A21 organization when launching the Coach x Selena Gomez collection. Since she started working with the non-profit organization in March, she has become a strong advocate for the cause.

"I think it's easy for a person in my position to be associated with an organization because she thinks it would be great, that she can contribute to the dollar." Nothing at all it's not true, "she told E! New & # 39; Jason Kennedy. "I think for me, I wanted something that I thought I could contribute the most, because I love what I do, but I sometimes feel selfish and I've always said that."

Moreover, his fame allows him to "really share this subject", even if "people do not want to discuss it".

The 26-year-old revealed that human trafficking is something "very, very bad" for her and even her friends. "I take it very seriously and my friends are very involved with me because it's not something that happens a million miles away, it's actually happening here," Gomez said.

By learning how close the problem is to home, the star feels "honored" to be part of the cause. The singer shared: "I would like to do everything I can, with one of my heroes Christine, to be part of it and learn."

And Selena has put her words into action recently, when she joined the group during a trip abroad to meet with victims of human trafficking. In a recent Instagram article, the star shared photos of her volunteer work.

When Jason asked her about any of those moments, Selena tore up because she said, "I want them to be seen, you know, so I want to be able to tell them that They are beautiful and I will do everything I can to bring out their story. "

These emotional experiences inspired her new music, which she hopes to share very soon.

The fans do not need to worry, she assured. "I wanted to take my time and be intentional with that, I'm very proud of that, I think it's going to be exciting."
