According to Celebrity Net Worth, the former Disney Channel star, 31, is currently worth a reported $800 million after launching to stardom in 2007.

While making a name for herself in the acting world, the brunette beauty also tackled becoming a pop star. Gomez released three studio albums as part of Selena Gomez & The Scene — all of which have achieved Gold status.
In 2020, the multi-talented star launched her successful cosmetics line, Rare Beauty, which is currently valued at $1.2 billion today. She also co-founded the mental health platform "Wondermind" and is an investor in food delivery company Gopuff.

"I signed my life away to Disney at a very young age and I didn't know what I was doing," Gomez said in a 2021 interview at the TCA Summer Tour about being launched into stardom. "When I was a kid, I didn't know what I was doing... I was just running around on set and now I just feel like a sponge, and I soak up all the wisdom that I can."
Despite her highly locative endeavors, Gomez has never shied away from the realities of being a star. "Working since I was 7, being away from my family, moving from Texas to [LA], experiencing fame, being confused by what that means, trying to grow up, being in such a weird position where people are actually caring and being awkward because you’re growing up — I think I was scared of it and I probably hated most of it," she explained in a 2019 interview with Zach Sang.

"When I got older, I started to become exposed to the truth behind some stuff and that's when it flipped a little bit. I realized that, 'Oh this is actually really hard, and kind of slimy in certain areas and I didn't realize that certain people wanted certain things from me. My confidence went through a lot with that," she noted in a 2017 interview.
