She’s an American singer, actress and producer, but what is Selena Gomez’s net worth?
Born to stage actress Amanda Dawn Cornett and Ricardo Joel Gomez, on July 22, 1992, in Grand Prairie, Texas, Selena Marie Gomez began living with her mother after her parents divorced when she was five.
Watching her mother (who juggled three jobs) prepare for stage plays got Gomez interested in acting and her first role was in the children’s TV series Barney and friends (2002-2004).
Gomez also appeared in the films Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003) and Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire (2005).
