Selena Gomez shares her views on mental health with the President

Selena Gomez gets a whole new platform to share her mental health advocacy as The White House enlisted her to promote mental health.

The actress and singer joined President Joe Biden, first lady Jill Biden, and US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy in a new video to discuss mental health and how it impacts people of all ages around the world.

In a White House interview, the Naturally singer said:

“I don’t take my platform lightly. I’m not perfect, I’m human. I have things that I walk through. That’s why I feel like people like me, hopefully, can be the other side of the voice and say… I don’t have it all put together, I have had to work through this. I’ve tried everything to escape this feeling,”

President Joe Biden thanked Selena for speaking about mental health with so much courage. He acknowledged her effort to encourage people to speak their minds regarding how they’re feeling internally.
