Why Fans Think The Idol Is Inspired By Selena Gomez

In the past, Selena’s mother vocalized her disapproval of Selena’s relationship with singer Justin Bieber, as well as her working relationship with director Woody Allen after she was cast in his movie A Rainy Day in New York. 

“No one can make Selena do anything she doesn’t want to. I had a long talk with her about not working with [Allen] and it didn’t click,” Selena’s mother wrote in an  Instagram post in January 2018. “Her team are amazing people. There is no fall person here. No one controls her. She makes all her own decisions. No matter how hard you try to advise. It falls on deaf ears.”
